Although I was trained and licensed in massage, I don’t typically give just massages anymore. That’s because acupuncture is more effective. I will, however, do massage as a part of an acupuncture treatment if necessary. Usually, I’m getting rid of stiffness that sometimes occurs from sitting or laying in one position too long. I have learned Western, Chinese and Japanese techniques. I’ll use whatever I think will work best for that condition. Since I am also trained in Therapeutic Touch, I’m good at finding the right spots. My overall training allows me to know what relationships between the problem area and if it’s a local problem (and what kind), or associated with an organ problem or an emotional problem and what type of treatments would be effective in treating it. My training in both massage and therapeutic touch has given me exceptional palpation skills.
