Ivan developed wrist problems and didn’t return to class this semester, which is a shame because he had a real talent for massage. Ivan also had a really great post-massage bliss face. One time when we had a shortage of clients in clinic, I worked on him for practice, and he still had bliss face the next day.
One of the regular clients in clinic has a cool bliss face. She gets up off the massage table with this Mona Lisa smile thing, like she just learned some great secret of the universe, but isn’t going to share.
Mark, the instructor who runs clinic on Monday and Teusday has probably the best post-massage bliss face, and it is easily induced. Five minutes of chair massage, and he looks like he just smoked some really great Hawaiian vegetation. I had him on the table once when I had no clients, and by the time I got done with him, his head was lolling, his eyes were rolled back into his head.
I haven’t seen him actually go into that trance state where he forgets to swallow and starts drooling, but he swears it has happened to him more than once.
There is no point to this post.
I just felt that I must share…
