Essential Touch
Remember when you were little, perhaps, your mother or father would gently stroke your hair before you fell asleep? 
When you were hugged and you felt the loving arms around you that gave you a profound sense of safety? These feelings are just as important to your emotional and physical well-being as it is to see your doctor on a regular basis. When this tender, loving care is absent from your child life it will have an effect on your life as a growing adult, on your relationships and your ability to give and receive affection. You might even question your own self worth. As important as it is to getting a deep tissue massage, as important as it is to work and to care for those in your life who depend upon you, it is just as important to feed your soul and your desire to feel the soft touch of another person.
Soft Touch Bodywork is the same as having a completely grand and perfectly balanced meal. Everything before you is perfect for your health and to delightful to your taste. Yes, we can surely survive on bread and water for a substantial amount of time, but you would not be 100 percent healthy. Eventually this would wear down the rest of your physical and mental abilities. You would simply be surviving.. .. We want to thrive... not merely survive.
Anyone can go for a deep tissue massage. Anyone at anytime anyone can feel the touch of another person via sexual intercourse, a shake of a hand, a passing pat on the shoulder, a hug from a child. All of these things are essential to one's balanced self. I don't want to diminish or minimize the need for any and all of these beautiful touches....... But absolutely none of these quenches our deep desire to be gently caressed and adored without hesitation. To be vulnerable, to let go of our insecurities about our physical looks for an hour out of our lives and allow ourselves the gift of being without fear or judgement for even a short amount of time is a gift beyond gifts.
