Welcome to the first edition of Massage Moves for the New Year. We hope
that you and your families had a great Christmas and have a happy, healthy
and prosperous 2007.
Since our last newsletter a couple of new
therapists have joined our team, Sandie
who is a very experienced remedial massage therapist and Shiri.
Whilst Shiri focuses on remedial massage, his speciality is with Indian
Head Massage.
Whilst the nature of our massage services is for
those who want a remedial or relaxation massage in their home, we
occasionally get calls that are slightly unusual. Recently we had a call
from someone who was proposing to his girlfriend on the beach and wanted
her to have a massage after he proposed - we were more than happy to send
a therapist along (& yes, she did say 'yes'!)
We've also done
massages at dinner parties, birthday parties and other events so if you
have any ideas for a massage party/event then please feel free to call.
Just a reminder that the next draw for the home massage will take
place on January 15th.
Best Wishes
Richard and the Inner West
Massage team.

There is no substitute for studying massage at an accredited and
recognised massage school for those who wish to become professional
massage therapists. However, many people are just interested in a simple
introduction to massage - "Massage for Dummies". They may just wish to
give their partner a relaxing/sensual massage with the knowledge that
their partner may benefit physically and emotionally from the power our
their touch or they may be interested in trying it out with a view to more
formal study at a later stage.
There are a significant number of
online resources aimed at assisting these people gain an insight into the
world of massage.

Glucosamine, Chondroitin and
Osteoarthritis |
|
As an ‘alternative’ supplement, glucosamine is a rare case that has
gained some credibility amongst medical practitioners and the general
public. Either on its own or combination with chondroitin, glucosamine is
used to relieve suffering from arthritic joints such as knees and has been
advocated for athletes recovering from some soft tissue injuries in the
belief that it may promote cartilage repair. However does the research
support the use of glucosamine with or without chondroitin.

Ginger May Kill Ovarian Cancer Cells. |
|
Ginger has been used extensively as a reliever of pain for arthritis
and migraines and is known to have anti- inflammatory properties. Research
has indicated that it may also have a significant impact on reducing
motion sickness. However, recent research has now added that ginger may
not only kill cancer cells but also prevents them from becoming resilient
to chemotherapy.
