Dear students of human touch thai massage,

I know there are many who took Introduction to Thai Massage (8 hour) and have been waiting for Thai Massage 1 (24 hour) to fit your schedule.  
I am interested and available to teach it in January of 2010
if enough people are interested, I know I have a few from recent classes, and a few from years past.  I am very grateful for those I have taught, and even more so for you who wish to study more from me.  It is encouraging!  I love to teach Thai work, and I do feel I have something special to offer  in my approach to Traditional Thai Massage. 

So… if you are someone who wants to study Thai with me and can in January 2010, please let me know ASAP!  email me at brian@humantouchmassage.com  let me know if you want to, what days/times might work for you.  I can do a weekend, or weekday class.  It is usually 3 days, all in a row, or over three weeks.   The Thai 1 class is really designed for students who have already taken my Introduction to Thai Massage (there are a couple hundred of you out there) though I will consider waving that if you have other Thai experience.  I can also do another Intro class to prepare people, if needed, but it is really based upon a committed interest.

human touch massage continues into 2010

I have many exciting things planned for 2010! 

Despite rumors of moving, Venice, California is still home base.
human touch massage services, including Thai Massage, are available in the greater LA area, and in other parts of California when I travel.

human touch massage therapy will again be in a Venice area office, for added convenience.

I hope to see to your kneads soon,

I was honored to get to teach this excellent group of people!

During the holiday season it is easy to get overwhelmed.

Getting ready for the holidays:  Shopping, cooking, cleaning, traveling.

Dealing with family members – and sometimes the stress that accompanies that.

Loneliness – sometimes all the holiday cheer makes ones aloneness more apparent.

And reflecting back on the previous year, it is often easy to see what was wrong with it, and again, create distress to ourselves.

We need strategies to deal with stress, especially if we know that the “holiday blues” has affected us in years past.

Did you know that massage therapy is one of the best ways to beat holiday moodiness?

I guarantee you will feel better, not just during the massage, but for days to follow.  Massage has been shown to be a great mood booster and is a useful tool in combating depression.   massage can help to clear out the negativity, increase energetic flow, and make you feel better and better, physically, emotionally. and even spiritually.  Mechanically, massage increases circulation, blood flow, and lymphatic stimulation, all of which can help you clear the physical results of feeling down. And the power of human touch helps to balance us, connect us, restore us, and remind us of our inherent wholeness.

Take the time out of the hustle and bustle of the season.  Take the time for yourself.  It only takes an hour.

I am available to help you, throughout the holiday season.   Give your self the gift of massage this season, you are worth it.

Be well!
