Judy-OK Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Whether you are currently battling, surviving or providing care for someone with lung cancer take the time to pamper yourself. I went for my first ever one hour long body massage this afternoon and I think I am addicted. I was apprehensive at first that some of the pains I have would be aggravted but I found out quite the contrary. I came home feeling like a warm pool of liquid. By the time I left I had decided I was so worth this investment that I scheduled me another one for next Thursday. Once we get all the kinks our of my shoulders, etc. I will probably go once a month for the rest of my like. I did not go to fancy place but to a small room in a woman's house that lives in my small town. She was very kind and made me feel comfortable with the situation. I have already decided that I need to save my pennies and give massages as birthday or xmas gift because many people will not be that self indulgent. I can not think of person more deserving than those of us that write on this message board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 John got a massage gift certificate for Christmas one year and he got hooked also. It is a wonderful gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Wood Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 I was a registered massage therapist 1994-99. It is the one pamper I give myself. I have a full body massage twice a month. I do believe it keeps me healthy. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welthy Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 I went for my first ever one hour long body massage this afternoon and I think I am addicted. That is precisely why I won't go for a massage! I'd love it too much. We have two family members who are CMT's, so it's a nice family perk. Tony does go occasionally. He especially enjoys Reiki. Good for you! You DO deserve it.

Liz13 Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 I started getting a 1/2 hr massage 2 x a week about 5 weeks ago at my chiropractors office. My insurance pays for it. Imagine that. It's called thearapy when it's in a Docters office. Since then I have felt my scar healing, my numbness leaving and my muscles come alive from my surgery. Going to 1x a week now. And you all are so right, we certainly deserve it. Check your insurance. I've been going to a chiro for years and they never told me. This is a new guy and I was just goofing around and asked if insurance would cover it. They checked and they do. Whooooo!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
