Hi, here is an update on the courses coming up.



​

7 p.m. TONIGHT at Tasman Town Hall in Richmond Molly is running another free class on Aromatherapy.   It was a great class last week - Molly is a fountain of knowledge.  Don't miss this opportunity, its on tonight.   Click here to find out more.

Beginner’s Massage Courses – I have two dates 4/5 April and 2/3 May.  Click here for more information.

Intermediate Massage Course – 23/24 May.    I don’t often run this course so if you are keen please book early.  If you want to do a Beginner’s massage refresher course prior to the Intermediate, you can come on any of the weekends for $100 (subject to space being available).  Click here to book in.

If you want to learn Chi Kung, international teacher Gabriella Euterneuer is returning to Nelson mid May.  She will be running evening workshops on the 14th/15th May and classes on the weekend.  Mark these dates in your diary and Ill keep you informed once plans are finalised.  Here's the link.

Ever wanted to learn more about yourself?   This Enneagram Course on the 7th March is going to be fun – learn about your personality type and how you interact with other people.   Take a look at the details here.

If you want to stop Smoking, I have been learning Hypnotherapy over the past few years and am now ready to start using it!   If you genuinely want to stop smoking, please get in touch.  I am looking for some people to work with at a nominal cost.  

Please feel free to share this with your family and friends.    Do give me a call if you have any questions.

Salt, Water, Muscles and Cramp

8/8/2019

Have you ever wondered why we need salt?   Apart from the fact that it tastes good, it also helps the functioning of our cells.   The problem is that there is table salt (an extract of sea salt) and THEN there is sea salt!    Table salt is made up of two minerals, Sodium and Chloride – the two major components of salt.    However it does not contain the 82 minerals that are found in Celtic or Himalayan salt.  Our body needs all the minerals and trace elements to function well.    
 
  • Not only does salt assist with the uptake of water in our bodies, it also:
  • Relaxes muscles because it contains 3 types of magnesium (a common remedy for cramp)
  • Aids nerve function
  • Helps with blood volume and pressure
  • Helps the body transmit messages between the nerves and the muscle fibres for movement
  • Increases fluid volume in the muscles
 
We lose about 2.5 litres of water a day and this needs to be replaced.   However some people find that drinking that amount of water means they either get fluid retention or they are often in the loo.   Water is absorbed and retained better when you put a crystal or two of Celtic or Himalayan salt on the tongue first, let it dissolve in your mouth, before you drink a glass of water.   

Picture
What does this have to do with being a massage therapist?    Many years ago I had a client visit me who was struggling to walk up hills and climb ladders.   When I massaged their legs, I found lots of little tight knots, especially in their calf muscles.    I asked if they include salt in their diet and found out that they only occasionally used table salt.   So I suggested they start having Himalayan or Celtic salt daily (up to ½ teaspoon) and drink more water.    After 2-3 slow, deep massages on their legs to release all the knots, and increasing their salt intake, they experienced considerable relief.

Take a look at the links below for more information about salt and water.

Note:  If you are not sure about using salt – please check with a qualified naturopath.

If you want to learn how to use energy when you are working with a client, I am running an evening class on Friday the 14th June 6.30 - 8.30 p.m. I will teach you the ancient chi kung technique of Bone Breathing (which cleans and boosts your energy) and Bone Packing (which is used when working with clients). This class costs $100 but is free for anyone attending the Intermediate Massage class. There is also an opportunity to practice from 9-9.45 am on the 15/16 June. You will also receive a Bone Breathing recording to use when you are at home. To book in, click here and complete the form on my website

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. If you know if anyone else wanting to attend a wonderful relaxing weekend, learning massage, please pass this email on.
