Balance And Ease

Name change! To continue developing my skills, I have been training at the amazing school of London School of Sports Massage. I'm about to qualify soon as a Soft Tissue Therapist and felt like Balance and Ease reflected well what I wish for my clients to achieve.

We love this "Autobiography in Five Short Chapters" by Portia Nelson

Chapter One

I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost... I am helpless. It isn't my fault.
It takes me forever to find a way out.

Chapter Two

I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don't see it.
I fall in again.
I can't believe I am in this same place.
But, it isn't my fault.
It still takes me a long time to get out.

Chapter Three

I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it is there.
I still fall in... it's a habit...but, my eyes are open. I know where I am.
It is my fault.
I get out immediately.

Chapter Four

I walk down the same street.
There's a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.

Chapter Five

I walk down another street.

Often pictures promoting Hot Stone Massage portray stones laid out on a person’s body, usually their back. Although this is a possible use for the stones, Karine uses them as a massage tool. The combination of heat and pressure, the manipulation of the stones producing gentle and deep tissue moves results in a deeply healing, relaxing and comforting treatment.
