Foot Stretchers For Dancers



An engaging and entertaining experience
LESSON OF MASSAGE IN A SUMMER CAMPS FOR CHILDREN

Back when I first started doing massage, after having finished school, I had performed the operations as been taught, trying to get better and better and trying to remember the details, all steps and all the things you had taught me.
The first massage was very sensitive because of my insecurity, it is sometimes ineffective. I remember that I was almost afraid to do evil, to push too hard, then some customers told me "look that you can push even more," I started to put a little 'more power.
When I felt safe on the technique, I started listening and what they perceived as my hands as I was taught: "follow what your hands want to do, trust them, listen to your body what it wants."
I'd play, I did not feel anything, then I tried to keep listening, trying to trust my hands that most of the techniques he had learned by heart by now.
I have often wondered if I was scope to do massages, though perhaps not have been better for me to do another job, even though people told me that I had massaged were better, they were calmer, sleeping better, that short were a little 'more happy and had golden hands, because of these reasons, I have continued in spite of my head I was thinking that maybe I had yet to do.
Over time and after so many massages I began to realize that I could feel where the person had no need, in some parts of the body I pause a few seconds and in other parts I would never take your hands off. I felt that something was happening in those places, it seemed "magical", when I saw those points, my hands seemed to know exactly what to do and sank her fingers through the muscle, skin, bones with an ease that left me surprised, but it most beautiful was how I felt, my body, my belly is, in fact I was happy when this happened.
When finished, the person told me that at that point he felt a great comfort.
So I figured I could talk to the body, through my hands and I was massaging the body, was speaking to me, showed me what he needed.
I often close my eyes and let go of my hands, listens to everything I hear and feel, be guided by these feelings.
Once in ancient times as now there were no doctors in those countries there was a person who could heal with herbs, but many home remedies were always present in the house and a lot of instruments used was just the massage, as a mother lovingly cares your child with hugs and kisses, so today we can do ourselves, taking care with love of others.
What I wanted to tell you that was my experience is that love is the greatest medicine and that love can heal.
So, I invite you to listen to your body, learn its language made not of words but of symptoms, one of them is the pain when you do badly the body through the pain warns you that something is wrong so you can take care of him, otherwise you would know that it could be trouble (for example in the case of a wound that is bleeding).
When you have a fever, for example, fever raises the temperature of our body and many microbes do not survive at a temperature so high dying. Think about how our body is intelligent, sometimes if we let him go, he knows cured, especially if we treat it well and be healthy by eating well, doing sport, having fun we will have only benefits.
But even when you are sad or have bad thoughts, try to listen to your body, maybe tells you what to do!
Now try to imagine what part of the body that you'd like massage, massage it, trying to listen. If you like what you are doing, you are doing the right thing, otherwise, change. Try to do the same with your partner, always ask if it is okay as you are doing.

Listen does not mean using only the ears, but listen to what you feel inside you, what your body is telling you simply.
