Guest guest Posted June 25, 2002 Report Share Posted June 25, 2002 Hi . Taking massage therapy classes are a wonderful way to show your wife how much you care and understand. I had massage therapy when I was in physical therapy and it was wonderful. My insurance doesn't cover massage therapy visits now. I think if I were to visit a massage therapist a several times a month I would be feeling a bit better. I really do think it works. When it is combined with aroma-therapy it can really work wonders. Although, some massage therapists are too rough. Fibro patients have tender muscles and it can be challenging as a health providor. The good massage therpists listen to their patients when they ask questions, offer suggestions, and let you know when it hurts. One therpist about killed me. She was filling in for my therpist and wow. I asked him not to let her work on me again. I am a very passive person. I don't complain unless it's around family. Well, I wish you well when you start school and we are all here for you and your wife. Have a good evening! Take care. ~ (I'm seein double...sorry for mistakes.) --------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
