Preface
You could call this book How to Give (or Receive) the Most Incredible Massage in the World
if you’d like.
After receiving professional massages regularly, my husband and I decided to try our hand at therapeutic home massage. After some training, we developed an environment and techniques for the most wonderful massage experience we have ever had.
Your senses will come alive…all of them. You will be transported to a third dimension where you will experience ocean waves crashing around you, a storm approaching and retreating, and finally nature returning to its serene state. Your olfactory sense will take in an aroma to lift you beyond that third dimension, and the relaxation your body achieves will be greater than anything you have ever imagined.
My husband and I were in Florida on vacation when we first enjoyed this experience. We had our massage table set up in our condo next to an open door where we could hear the sound of the surf, the seagulls, and all of the other majestic sounds of the sea. We had an aromatic massage oil to try, and that massage was the most extraordinary massage I had ever received. When we returned home, I was determined to duplicate that experience in the comfort of our in-town home. The results were astounding and even better than our vacation experience. I was then inspired to write this book to share our discovery with others.
Come journey with us, but be prepared. You will want to return
