Had a massage this afternoon. Needed something to ease the stress. Much cheaper than seeing the shrink. So many tight knots that I was in agony. Hopefully I'll reap the benefits in the days to come.
Since I came back late, I had a night walk after dinner - fish with Caesar salad.
Hi everyone. 👋🏼

A massage is good for the @soul 
What type did you have?
I am a believer in 'the body knows' - it stores emotions, and if we can find ways to relieve tension than that's great.

@CherryBomb - it was a Thai style with the addition of hot rocks as well. Need to treat myself more often I think.

Oooooh @Former-Member. Your worst massage sounds painful. I did have to tell my masseuse to ease up on the pressure somewhat. I have had massages in the past where I've actually fallen asleep.

Neither had I @Former-Member - was a nice feeling. The massage made me think of those wonderful ones I used to have in Thailand for around $6.

I did get the fish treatment in Thailand @Former-Member. It was quite ticklish but then I have very sensitive feet.
