The Therapist
Cynthia Lee R.M.T.
"Happiness or misery, health or sickness, freedom or slavery--all depend upon the manner in which we conduct our daily lives and activities. Our conduct is dictated by our judgement. It, in turn, is a result of our comprehension of the structure of the world and the infinite universe"
Zen Macrobiotics by George Ohsawa
We are caught in a mesh of high technology as well as a disconnection from the earth and ourselves.
"The urbanization of modern life has succeeded in exiling us from this fecund kinship with our mother earth. Fashioned from the earth, we are souls in clay form. We need to remain in rhythm with our inner clay voice and longing. Yet this voice is no longer audible in the modern world. We are not even aware of our loss, consequently, the pain of our spiritual exile is more intense in being largely unintelligible."
Anam Cara by John O'Donohue
Without this connection and kinship with the earth, our bodies become stressed, disorientated, and cannot perform optimally. Even though we cannot escape the results of modern technology, we can re-connect to our earth element and our essential being. Human touch through massage is one way to re-connect. As stress promotes 70% of all disease, massage decreases stress and promotes health. It is my goal to promote pain and stress release through therapeutic massage, and to help clients improve their health and life-style choices in a holistic manner.
