Touch Understanding

A massage isn’t really measured in the number of minutes or depth of pressure, but rather in the level of touch-understanding that can be reached in a session.  Touch-understanding, as I’m calling it, is a direct experience of understanding exactly what type and level of touch a client’s body is in need of at any moment in a session.

It’s a felt thing that starts with making a connection first as people.  Often just talking authentically with the client about the challenges they are experiencing can be enough to create this initial connection that is the pre-requisite for touch-understand to take place.
