Student Massage Clinic

My first student massage in shiatsu clinic was physically informative. I received the usual stress relief associated with massage, but I was struck by how the process awakened awareness in my body. Post-massage I began to notice how little attention I give my abdomen. In my self-care practices and in requesting massage for problem areas. It was notable that my abs felt tender to the touch and obviously need more care. This experience served as a reminder to check in with myself and mentally scan my body for areas that need more care.
