I can easily go in to the benefits of massage and energy work. These therapies lower blood pressure, strengthen your immune system, promote good digestion, raise mood-elevating brain chemicals and relieve pain, among many other things. These are all great reasons to buy gift certificates for your friends and family, but as I see it, there are some real, get down to the nitty gritty reasons why gift certificates for massage therapy and energy work are just plain necessary for your loved ones…

1) Who do you know that has no stress in their lives? I would venture to say that most of the people in your life are feeling some sort of tension. How great would it be for you to give them an hour of complete escape? Or maybe even two hours, one of pain-relieving massage, followed by an hour of deeply rebalancing energy work… Ahhhh…

2) This is for those weekend warriors/snow shovelers whom you care for so deeply. Nip those injuries in the bud or prevent them all together with the gift of massage.

3) And lastly, it’s an original gift that will be bragged about for months to come. What says, “I care about you” more than the gift of massage and energy work? If they weren’t saying “I love you” and “thank you” before their session, they will be after…

I will also remind you that nutritional counseling makes a lovely gift for those that want to lose weight or transition to a healthier life-style. You and a friend may want to come in together and enjoy learning about healthier choices after the holiday feasts!

If you mention this blog, I will give you 10% off gift certificates between now and December 24th for services with me (Abby), Glynis or Jen. Happy Holidays!
