Greetings massage lovers,
It has been a slow Winter for me, and I could use some support to keep my business going. Not looking for a hand out! Simply seeking a few appointments, hands on, doing the work I do. My attitude is positive, and there are signs it is getting better all the time.
I am a private practice therapist in the Los Angles region. I have 15 years experience in body therapy. I’m good at what I do – but have been hit hard by this economy. People are not booking massages like they used too, and I am feeling it – and I am sure their muscles are too (or not feeling it I should say!) I offer a very good value for the money and don’t generally feel my work needs to be discounted.
That being said, as motivation to get a few prepaid appointments, and keep things going, I am offering this:
Only 12 will be sold: 90 minute massage for the price of 1 hour $80
Thank you for helping me, and I know my work will be of benefit to you. These massages can be scheduled anytime, this week, next, next month… though the sooner, the better for you!

I really believe in Massage Therapy as being something of value in my life. Do you? I am looking for people who do!
It’s a great way to take care of yourself, body, mind. spirit. I’ve written and spoke about that a lot over the years. I think you know that, if you are one of my past clients or students! Even if you are a random reader, you are reading this post from human touch massage, I imagine you know how good it is for you.
Yet… you haven’t called me recently!
I have an honest question for you:
Would you want to get a massage session with me sometime in 2010?
Can you please make a $10 down payment on a session for sometime this year?

I have had the great opportunity to do this work for the last 15 years… As a therapist, I have worked with many great people over the years. As a teacher, I have had the unique honor of helping others develop their skills and talents; for many of it has become a full time career; for some part of a path towards other goals and dreams. For all these experiences, I am grateful.
I love massage, and would love to share it with you this year.

Thank you, I really appreciate your show of support!

Lately, a few people have called or emailed me: “I want to let you know that I intend to book an appointment, and I’ll call you back when I can budget it”. Some times they do, but often times I never hear from them again. I assume their intention was true, but the budget never managed to include the massage!
If your budget can’t afford a massage today, plan to get one in a month. Or in two months. Commit to it, make it a goal. If you need it now, you’ll need it then. Even just once a month, or every other month will make a difference! You know the wonderful benefits of massage.
Pay for it a little at a time, weekly, monthly, whatever fits your budget. Layaway style.
This is a great way to begin to receive the benefits of massage therapy in your life!
You will enjoy increased well being by making monthly massage part of your personal self care plan.
To come up with $10 or $20 each week is easy – it might mean one brown bag lunch, rather than going out, (which might be healthier!) or not get a latte before work (which might be healthier!), or not go out for drinks after work (which might be healthier!) or something else you spend twenty dollars a week on that isn’t as good for you as regular massage…
You deserve it. You know getting massage is a great way to take care of yourself. And here is an easier way to budget it into your life.
Use this links below or on the Buy a Massage page on the site menu, to make payments of $10 or $20 to human touch massage, via PayPal.
human touch massage (brian) will:
When you are able, on your own schedule, make more payments online… or simply pay the amount due at the time of your appointment. Your credit will never expire, and there is no late fees, so pay when it is convenient for you!
Please email or call me if you have any questions. brian@humantouchmassage.com or 310.428.2335
Thank you for your support, and I look forward to seeing you more this year than last!
Feel good!

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.
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!
