Here's a shot I took of Nancy DeLong, the proprietor of DEEPFEET Bar Therapy, the home of Ashiatsu massage, showing an advanced Ashiatsu move at the 2017 Self Care Fair in Renton this weekend. I’m looking forward to helping out with another training in Renton in Late October!

Here’s a shot I took at the Barefoot Basics Training on Capitol Hill this weekend. Nancy DeLong, my Ashiatsu Instructor (and owner of the Deepfeet Ashiatsu franchise), and Instructor-in-training Natalie Petersen traveled up from Portland to our fair city! I hosted them and joined the training as an assistant. Now 10 more massage therapists have been trained in the basics of Ashiatsu massage!

It has been a year since A Touch of Red moved to the Salt Mine Arium Spa in Bellevue. Thank you Annett & Matthias Riebe for providing such a wonderful place to be located at. Also thank all of you for continuing to support my micro business! It has been a positive and abundant year.

Thank you, Alice Stuart! Part of how I knew I could do whatever I wanted with my life, like be a professional artist (did it) or run my own massage business (doing it) was because I had such great examples of other women who had lived their dreams, like my friend’s mom (and my teen hero), the legendary folk singer and band leader Alice Stuart. On June 17th, Alice is celebrating her 75th Birthday by performing at the Triple Door in downtown Seattle; but before her performance Alice is coming to see me at A Touch of Red for a massage! There are still a few tickets left for this amazing artist’s show https://tickets.thetripledoor.net/e... or go to http://www.alicestuart.com/media for more about Alice. It's a great read. She's the woman who paved the way for Bonnie Raitt, toured Europe with Van Morrison, played with Frank Zappa, is good friends with Huey Lewis...and also by her great example influenced me.

This is the web site of Alice Stuart, with samples of her music in .mp3 format, contact information and her playing schedule.

Allergy season is in full bloom and while it is beautiful, it is also a difficult time for those of us that are pollen challenged. Lucky me, I own a designer microfiber Vogmask that matches the garden! -Thank you to Colleen P for taking this fun photo!

Too much going on in your head? Want your stress to melt away? Come in and feel the positive energy of a relaxation massage. Most massages include the face and head, but if you want extra focus just ask! -photo by David Turcaso

Here is a photo I took of of our Ashiatsu booth at a Self Care Fair for Therapists. Pictured are instructors Nancy DeLong of Portland , OR and Pilar Hook from Florida both working on one luck therapist. We were also joined at the booh by instructor Mariah Neeson from Spokane.

Want to be like an Olympian? Massage cupping is available at no extra cost during your massage appointment. Simply request it at the beginning of your service. It is especially effective in breaking up scar tissue and releasing muscle adhesions. http://www.massagetoday.com/archive... Michael Phelps image courtesy of NBC :)
