It is a tall order to unwind all that. I try. Massage therapy is not going to change the world, of course, just our reaction to it.
One of my regular fellows has been stressing for months about the national election. He has told me straight out on a number of times that if his candidate did not win, or more importantly if the other guy didn’t lose, that he would be out of business overnight.
Long hard years of work and dedication down the drain. Mentored employees adrift. An entire sophisticated market kaputz, with the eventuality the ruin of the quality medical care in the United States. Instead of working on the important stuff, he might just be trying to come up with the next Sham-Wow, while sitting in an old rv somewhere trying to stay one park ahead of his creditors.
Ok. That is pretty dreadful.
Well, the national election didn’t go too well for his guys. On top of that, Californians, apparently insane from overdoses of Twinkies and silicone, actually voted to raise their own taxes.
And you just don’t talk politics with clients. I can mumble a sympathetic “that’s terrible” here and there, but otherwise it is a game out of bounds for massage therapy.
I was thinking, though, that it has been my experience that if someone tries to frighten your vote, they are on thin ground. I don’t vote that way and never have. Well, that’s an opinion I kept to myself.
I was thinking this would be more about massages but I can’t say I dislike your blog. It is very well done. Thanks for posting this information and I will hopefully be coming by later to see more posts.

I’ve been thinking my wife and I should seek out massage therapy in Oakville. We just had our first baby a few months ago and it’s been pretty stressful lately. It sounds so good.
