With
our hectic schedules, massage therapy is no longer a luxury. All of the
intricate systems of your body work together to do one simple task: keep
itself in balance. When your body is overwhelmed by stress, poor diet, lack of
exercise, emotional upset or any number of other problems, that balance is
easily lost. Therapeutic massage helps to release toxins from the body, and
once removed, your body can regain its balance, which in turn boosts the
immune system, improves circulation and organ function, and helps to restore
you to optimum health.
In
Texas, all licensed massage therapists ("LMT")
are required to pass a state exam after completing a 300-hour course of study.
After passing my exams, I opened a solo massage therapy practice in July 1997.
These
are stressful times we live in, but you must take care of yourself, and
only you can do it! If you are the hub of the wheel and you collapse, what
happens to the wheel? There is only one way to make time for yourself: ...
put yourself on
the schedule!
