How Do You Make Massage So Special?


A client sent me the above text message. Another client asked me what I am thinking when I do massage. I appreciate these questions so much as they invite me to contemplate and share my thoughts with you in an organised way.

 When I do massage, I am not there just to have a job done; I am performing a form of art. Every massage session that I am engaged with is an embodiment of my passion, love, fantacy and enjoyment, an expression of my whole self.  

 I now happily and proudly disclose the secret of what I do to make my massage special. Please dive in and start your treasure hunt:

I RELAX, YOU RELAX
Believe it or not-- I feel very relaxed when I do massage.

"How do you do that? Don't you get tired when you work so hard?" I was asked this question from time to time.

Let me explain first:

Every individual (to be precise, every living thing) has an energy field. As we get close to each other, our energy interacts with each other-- and that's why I can sense how the client is feeling during the massage, the same way as you can sense mine! Perhaps you are not consciously aware of it, but it DOES happen that way. It is merely a matter of how sensitive you are to be able to take notice of the subtle energy as you perceive it.

Imagine-- if I do not feel relaxed when I do massage for you, how could I, or anyone at all, expect you to feel relaxed at the same time while I am working on you?

I LOVE TO HELP, I ENJOY WHAT I DO
I have innate enthusiasm to help others. I feel happy when helping others to be happy. 

When I do massage, I know I am good and I am sure my massage can benefit you in addition to offering you good relaxation and a nice feeling through the sensational touch of my warm soft hands (you might like to read my post "How do you keep your hands so warm, Lily?"). Frankly speaking, from time to time I am amazed and proud how well I have done, and I appreciate all the good feedbacks that the clients have given!

When I do massage, I take a journey of ultimate enjoyment: As the music moves from one piece to another, for one moment I am a harpist playing a beautiful harp that is you (I have actually learned to play the harp); for another, especially when 'Ave Maria' is playing, I imagine myself as Mother Mary caressing Jesus with a lot of love in my heart, or a mother gently and lovingly pampering her baby.  When 'Amazing Grace' is playing, I am in awe of the amazing body God has created for you, for all creatures. 

As I guide you to breathe in a pattern, I breathe with you simultaneously, feeling relaxed and in trance. I take steady steps to move around and massage you, integrating breathing in a way like doing Qi-gong. With mindfulness I focus on how I work on you and how you respond, interacting with you. Every massage session is a profound process and is sacred to me. To be precise, we become one.

I APPRECIATE YOU
As you lay yourself on the massage table, you surrender yourself to me-- what a privilege you have given me! I appreciate your trust in me and all I have in mind is to offer all my knowledge, skills and my heart to enhance your well-being.

As I slide my hands on you, firmly or softly, I feel your skin underneath-- soft or hairy, dry or oily, warm or cold-- all beautiful, all amazing! Especially when 'Amazing Grace' is playing, I appreciate your amazing body to the full!

YOU ARE SPECIAL  
Very often, people inquire with this question:
"Do you do SPECIALS?"

My answer is:

ALL MY CLIENTS ARE SPECIAL; ALL MY SERVICES ARE SPECIAL!!!

Every client is different and special to me. I cater to your needs with what I offer. Every session is a journey of our mutual exploration and an opportunity for evolution. Each and every client or session is special and unique. Believe it or not, MY MASSAGE IS SPECIAL BECAUSE OF YOU!!

Hands-on Healing (energy healing, touch or non-touching)

Image
(Vidio of Dio playing happily pain-free after treatments) 《Treatment Story: Hands on Healing, (touching or non-touching)》 Dio, a nine-year-old Japanese Spitz, yelped in pain while changing position from sprawling resting to standing up. For some time he did't move around much but laid resting to avoid pain. After the first treatment, Dio could walk around as normal. After 3 treatments, Dio could play, chase his ball and jump around freely. It remained unknown whether Dio hurt his joints or had arthritis, but it is sure that Dio's pain is all gone and he is now well and happy, and what caused Dio's pain doesn't really matter anymore.  A few years ago, Dio also popped his knee of his right hind leg and was limping holding up his injured leg. Lily's Hands-on healing also worked marvelously and saved Dio's injured knee after a few treatments. Hands-on healing works magically with all kinds of ailments in mind- body-spirit, for human, animals and plants.  Consider ha...

A Poem: Love is the Key (II)

Image
❤  Love is the Key  ❤      Love, is a beautiful thing That makes your heart sing, That makes you feel like a bird, flying High with joy, That makes your heart race, That puts a big smile on your face; Love is the warmth flowing  From someone's heart That warms up your cold feet  All the way up to your top of head  And makes your cheeks glow in pinky red; Love, is your lifebuoy-- Do you know, my boy--  That supports you and keeps you safe, While you swim in the rough sea-- I hope you can finally see; Love, in its true essence Is acceptance, Independence, Freedom, no prison, Willing to give for no return; Might sound strange, But definitely no exchange; Have you been truly loved? Or was your love stuffed? Heart wounded? Head confused? Hesitating, While navigating? Fear not, now you won't drown, Embrace my love, do not frown; Take my lifebuoy of love,  I...

Treatment Story: Balanced treatment is important

Image
Treatment Story: Balanced treatment is important Is your chiro or physio actually helping you by treating ONLY the painful spot? I treated a client who had been suffering from pain due to his bulging disc in L4/L5. He had been seeing a chiropractor, a physio, for a few years, but there had not been significant improvement.  I started with loosening up his right back.  "My pain is on the left side," he said. "I know, but I need to do both sides so that your muscles pull evenly on your spine and it is beneficial for treating your bulging disc," I responded. I found his right back very tight, so I massaged to loosen it up.  "Click!" something inside seemed to have opened up, and I felt his right back freer. "Was there a click inside?" I asked. "Yes, there was!" He confirmed. Then I checked his left back to find it was a lot softer than the right side-- I believed that it was softer because it had been worked on; therefore, the muscles were...
