Guess where I was today for my check up?

Email me:   info@drdot.com and please put "Cheryll/San Diego" in subject line, thank you. 

Hi Everyone. My name is Cheryll and I would like to be your massage therapist. I’ve always massaged my brothers, sisters, and friends since I was little, but I became certified after a snowboarding accident. I herniated a disk in my lower back that was so severe, I couldn’t walk more than a quarter of a mile before my leg gave out on me. It didn’t matter if I was sitting or standing, I was in constant pain. My doctor sent me to a neurosurgeon who told me to take pain pills every day and when it became worse, then he would do surgery. Not feeling like that was the answer for me, I looked into alternatives. A friend recommended a massage therapist that specialized in deep tissue. After the first massage, I felt better. After ten massages I felt no pain. Years later, with massage and yoga, my back doesn’t bother me at all. That’s when I decided it was so life changing for me, that I had to do it professionally and help others. I specialize in Swedish, Deep Tissue, Sports Massage, Circulatory, Shiatsu, and Therapeutic Stretching.

Growing up in Southern California in the 80’s really cemented my love of music. When I heard about Dr. Dot and her niche in the music scene, I realized I wanted to be a part of her team. Dr. Dot doesn’t just let anyone on her team, so I feel privileged and grateful that she allowed me to join her.

Whether you are looking for a relaxing massage or have specific areas that need work, I’m here for you.

 Contact me at:   info@drdot.com  and put "Dr. Stephanie/Atlanta" in the subject line :)

Hello, my name is Dr. Stephanie. I have been practicing Chiropractic for 18 years. It is such a joy to have found Dr. Dot because she helps me fulfill my Chiropractic goals.

What I know is that there is a wisdom in your body and it utilizes your nerve system to live, run, dance sing, create, etc. I also know that you are human, and the human body reacts to physical, emotional and chemical stresses by mis-aligning spinal bones. Receiving regular Chiropractic adjustments realign your vertebrae allowing your wisdom and creativity to be expressed as you were designed. This is why I find being a Chiropractor such a privilege.

My style of adjusting varies based on your needs and what your body wants on a given day. I analyze your spine and provide the best Chiropractic adjustment for you at that moment. I use my hands, pelvic levers (triangle blocks) and an adjusting instrument.

I also know that if you take care of yourself while on tour, you will recover quickly and be ready to get back on the road again. You can depend on me to help anyway I can.

Sharing Wellness,
Dr. Stephanie

Contact me: info@drdot.com and put "Amber/Pittsburgh" in subject line, please.

Hi. My name is Amber, and I'm located in the Pittsburgh/Southwest PA region.

I graduated from Tom P. Haney Technical Center in Panama City, FL for massage therapy in 2004. My formal education included 750 hours of classroom studies in anatomy and physiology. My professional massage training includes Swedish, deep tissue, sports, hot stone, trigger point, pre-natal, infant, chair and therapeutic techniques. While in school, I exceeded my volunteer hours by giving back to the community and massaging at: the medical tent during the Iron Man Triathlon; a few different walk-a-thons; hospitals and schools.

Since I have graduated, I have built up a successful clientele with a wide variety of needs. I help clients regain range of motion while recovering from surgery/injury, I help professional athletes maintain their bodies and help them recover faster from the wear and tear that happens during their vigorous training, professional wrestlers, as well as everyday working men and women who simply want to experience the amazing therapeutic benefits of massage therapy. I have worked two years in a thriving chiropractor’s office and another two years for my community’s largest fitness center. I currently serve my clientele in spas, hotels, retirement homes, private homes, and even backstage during concerts. No matter the place, I can fit in anywhere!

In October 2009, I auditioned with internationally-known massage leader Dr. Dot in New York City. She hired me on the spot as I was able to meet her very high standards and I am extremely honored to work under her!

So when you are in the Pittsburgh/Southwest PA region and you are in need of a professional massage, book me!

 Obviously I didn't take this picture myself, I just borrowed it for my blog ;) 

 Singer ^ Danny O'Donaghue said he really enjoyed the Deep Tissue massage I gave him. He said it was "the best massage I've ever had in my life!". Not bragging, but I hear this from everyone I massage yet each time it still makes me feel happy, grateful and content. 

The Irish band The Script are in the USA on tour and have already been on the TV shows 'Ellen', 'MTV total request live' and 'The David Letterman show', all in one week! They are really on their way up to the top. I thought to myself, while in their company with all the buzz around them, this is what it may have felt like for the Beatles on their first ever US tour. Not to that extreme, but I could sense they are about to explode into the BIG time over here in the USA. They also spend most of their time in hotel rooms as they have been touring non stop for the last 2 years, which is really hard on a person. I toured a couple times with bands and it is HELL on the body. Irregular sleeping habits, eating habits, different beds every night, people around you wanting to party every day and night- and I can only imagine how hard it must be to always be away from friends and loved ones for touring artist. They must feel lonely in the hotel rooms. Everyone around them being overly friendly and kind, superficial, always wanting something from them. 

 (read their Biography  HERE )

During his 2 hour massage, his iTunes were on shuffle and lots of lovely music was coming out of it. A few songs that came on were completely new to me. They sounded great and the singer sounded a bit like Stevie Wonder. I asked him "who's this?" and he said, humbly "this is us". I was like WHAT!!???? They sound great! When I told a couple friends I was on my way to massage the Script on the first night, they told me "oh, the boy band from Ireland" - so I was expecting a Back Street Boy situation, you know, lots of dancing, rather tedious music but I was very pleasantly surprised to see them, hear them, meet them. My friends were wrong. They ARE a band from Ireland and they ARE male and do have thousands of screaming females at their shows but that is all they have in common with boy bands. They write ALL of their own lyrics and music, just three members in the band (as I said, the bassist is a touring bass player). They don't wear matching costumes on stage and/or dance like 'Dancing Fools', they are fantastic. They opened for Paul McCartney on one whole tour (ugh!! jealous!!). They all praised Paul and said how nice he was to them etc. Swoon. 

Guitarist Mark Sheehan got a massage from my assistant Michelle. I will give him a beating personally next time though :) haha

Fame is not as wonderful as one may think it. I have been around famous people most of my life and most seem trapped by their fame. Isolation and panic are always present. I feel for these folks. The least I can do is make them feel good with the best massage I can possibly give them. That is exactly what I did for the Script. I know they will never forget my hands of steel. The bassist was a bit afraid of my hands haha, as he heard how strong they were, but I showed him that I adjust my strength according to whom I am massaging and how their muscles feel to me. The bassist, Ben Sargeant , from the UK,  is a touring (and studio sometimes?) member for the band, not a core member. He is a sweety-pie too. They all are. In fact my fucking face hurt from laughing after being around them. 

Ben the bassist ^

They are all so down to earth and ALL have their heads on straight; no bullshit. They are very driven, honest, HUMBLE and just plain fucking NICE. They are fun, hilarious yet not sarcastic or mean (like some up and coming bands I have met in the past). They are NOT letting success go to their heads. None of them seem to have a vain bone in their body, just plain cool. Their Mom's did a good job raising these guys, that is for SURE. Their tour manager (not mentioning his name even though he is a close friend) keeps things running super smooth too, they are on a roll!

 Glen Power, the drummer ^ 

http://www.thescriptmusic.com/us/home/

I really sound like a walking add now for the Script lol. If I didn't like them or if they were pricks to me I would surely write about it, but I only have nice things and thoughts about these guys.  I just have a feeling they will be the next U2. But not as Pompus as Bono, haha. Snap!

"I guess you never knew,
Dear boy, what you had found,
I guess you never knew,
Dear boy, that she was just the cutest thing around.
I guess you never knew what you had found,
Dear boy.
I stepped in, my heart was down and out,
But her love came through and brought me 'round,
got me up and about.
I guess you never saw,
Dear boy, that love was there,
And maybe when you look too hard,
Dear boy, you never do become aware.
I guess you never did become aware,
Dear Boy.
When I stepped in, my heart was down and out,
But her love came through and brought me 'round,
got me up and about.
I hope you never know, dear boy,
how much you missed,
And even when you fall in love,
Dear boy, it won't be half as good as this
I hope you never know how much you missed, dear boy.
I stepped in, my heart was down and out,
But her love came through and brought me 'round,
got me up and about.
Dear boy, how much you missed,
Dear boy"

“Take care of your body with steadfast fidelity. The soul must see through these eyes alone, and if they are dim, the whole world is clouded.” (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe)
 
My name is Niamh and I’m available to do Massage in Dublin primarily, but can also consider Northern England (Leeds in particular) as I’ll be back and forth while I do a Masters in Occupational Therapy. While studying for my degree Anthropology I became interested in Medical Anthropology…how different cultures approach health and well-being. This taught me about Massage from a holistic viewpoint, amongst other things.  I went on to train in Swedish Massage in 2004, which I developed by incorporating various other styles such as some Shiatsu, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point work and Indian Head Massage. Blending these in whatever way each individual’s body dictates. However, I firmly believe in a straightforward, honest to goodness, no-nonsense Massage. I’m intuitive and perceptive and will focus on getting to the root of any needs or problems, then work on these with great attention to detail.
I’m into anything that can transform the soul, and for me Music and Massage would be top of that list. Good quality examples of both can do this almost immediately. I love all kinds of music, depending on my mood and what I need…a good Massage Therapist should be able to figure these things out too, and deliver what’s required.
If you’re in Dublin, the ‘dirty old town’, give me a shout.
 

Reach me at:  info@drdot.com and put "Melinda/El Paso" in the subject line :)

Hello all! My name is Melinda!

Originally a Midwest girl from Missouri, I’ve found myself in El Paso, Texas now for the last few years. I’m full of life, a goofball, driven, and professional all at the same time! After serving in the Army, then being a tattoo artist, then a police officer, I realized I needed a change of pace. So I chose massage therapy.

After graduating top of my class, I went straight to work at a therapeutic clinic and have been there since. I’ve built up a vast clientele and outstanding repertoire with them. I have also been responsible for getting the local music scene and tattoo scene involved in the benefits of massage. Struggling artists, and tattoo artists are often overlooked when they need so much work. My calling is definitely Deep Tissue and Trigger Point! I have the strength to really get into the muscles and work deep. I also practice Swedish, Pre-Natal, Chair, Sports, Myofascial Release, and combinations for individual needs.

My massage therapy teacher had called me the “black sheep” of the class. The “rebel”; and pointed me in the direction of the Dr. Dot team and mentioned that was more “my speed”. As soon as I read about Dot and her amazing team, I knew I wanted to be a part of it. How great to be able to give back to all the amazing talented artists that have given so much to their fans and the music industry.

When in El Paso; contact Dr. Dot for an amazing therapeutic massage experience! See “yall” soon!

Please email me at:  info@drdot.com and put Rebekah/Paris in the subject line to reach me directly

Rebekah: New York State Licensed massage therapist since 1997, Shiatsu practitioner, other massage modalities; myofascial, sports/dance/performer injury, tui na and craniosacral. Also a reiki master, previously:teacher at New York College - medical massage and Swedish massage. Activities include martial arts and teaching/practicing yoga. Currently reside in Paris, France.

email me at  info@drdot.com and put "April/Phoenix" in subject line to reach me asap

Hi there, my name is April and I am an Arizona native. I’m still passionate about working as a massage therapist after 6 years and am still going strong! I studied massage therapy at Phoenix Therapeutic Massage College (PTMC) and graduated in 2003. I have been fortunate enough to have helped a wide range of clients, all with different needs, from working with a chiropractic and physical therapy office to working at a high end spa. I have treated professional athletes, pre/post surgery rehab, car accidents, repetitive stress injuries to elderly clients (and the list goes on).

I believe that there is not a “one massage fits all” and that my massages vary from person to person. I enjoy being able to figure out where the source of the pain/issue is and fix it instead of just trying to treat the symptoms. It is such a great feeling helping someone feel better physically and mentally. I am confident that I’ll be able to give you a great massage that fits your needs. During your session with me I understand that it is your time to relax and unwind or get all the knots out of your muscles and get you feeling as good as new.

Massage Techniques I am trained in:
    •    Deep Tissue (my favorite)
    •    Sports
    •    Prenatal
    •    Craniosacral Therapy
    •    Reflexology
    •    Hot Stone Massage
I am very grateful to be a part of the amazing Dr Dot Team in Arizona and look forward to working on you in the Phoenix area!!

My massage team has been massaging SMB for almost 3 years and this is the first time I got to meet and massage him. He was SO nice and when he walked into the massage room he was so full of praise, saying so many kind things, like "you got a great team, you run a tight ship, all of your girls have been terrific, I feel so much better on tour with them massaging me, etc.

He told me SO many amazing stories during his two hour massage- told me about hanging out with Hendrix and headlining for the Grateful Dead (the dead opened, then SMB played then Jimi- wow!) he also played a show once in Minnesota where Alice Cooper opened for them and said it was one of Alice's first show and how the crowd didn't know how to react with Alice. He just ate dinner the other night with Alice and told me just for fun they traded watches (they both collect them). He is just a nice guy, wow. 

The show was, to my surprise, 90% BLUES!! He played Come On (which in my opinion was made famous by Jimi Hendrix) and many other great blues tunes- naturally he played his hits but you can tell he would just enjoy playing blues all night :)

Check out his web site: http://www.stevemillerband.com/

SOME of Steve's guitars on the side of the stage. There were so many I couldn't fit them all into one picture. He is the only guitarist in the band fyi

Book me at: info@drdot.com and put "PAM/BOSTON" in the subject line please :)

Hi my name is Pam. I am a licensed Massage Therapist trained in a spa modalities and a licensed Physical Therapist. I was born and raised and Cape Cod and am thrilled to be part of the Dr. Dot’s team servicing from Boston to the Cape and Islands.

My medical background is helpful in giving treatments that not only pamper my clients, but benefit musculoskeletal issues. My experience has taught me that the true healing that occurs with my clients, is through the power of touch and not always the clinical or scientific knowledge. This is what lead me to massage.

The various techniques I use in my work have proven very effective in reducing pain and providing clients with luxurious wellness. I love to live spur of the moment.....and learning something new each day keeps me motivated. I like to do deep work without too much pain, and finish up with a memorable scalp massage. I always let the client lead the way to an enjoyable session.

 from like 1997 ^ taken in Berlin

It has been a long time since I have massaged Steven (Aerosmith ) Tyler, so it was GREAT seeing him again and massage him again. He is by far one of my favorites to work on. He is so positive and fun, I am pretty sure anyone who knows him, loves him. His girlfriend Erin got a massage the next day too. They were both VERY pleased with their massages, so I have been told over and over again by his assistant. 

Steven insisted on tying this scarf on me himself for the picture. He said "I know how to do scarves"  haha. He is so fun! He lives ROCK and ROLL. Some stars dress and act one way on stage and act differently off the stage. With Steven, it's like this, he is exactly like he appears to be, a free spirit with a wild way about him, it's not an act, he is that way. So fucking cool!

Steve said he got those necklaces and beads in Maui. The Turquoise beads, he said, are over 3,000 years old. The tight teeth necklace is made from Raccoon teeth

Steve says this ring has been around the world twice in a shuttle (his friend is an astronaut and brings his ring with him)

Mr. Tyler and his little torch	He uses this to ignite special coals he got in Dubai. The coals go under incense he got there, and they smell delicious.

My friend Bri, who does security for Steven, also protected Evil Knievel for more than 15 years. SUPER nice, but fierce man. 

Book me: info@drdot.com and put "Linda/Detroit" in the subject line please :)

My name is Linda and I am a Michigan girl.  I studied massage at the Ann Arbor Institute  of massage therapy.  
I learned lots of tricks of the trade but the big results massage are Neuromuscular therapy and Myofascial therapy.

If you have muscles that need attention then lets get in there and work it out!
People love to feel the music so why not feel the massage.
I cant help but love what Dr. Dot has created by bringing the two together.
I am thrilled to be a part of the historical Dr. Dot team.
Now get on the table please!!

Joanna and I ^

Halloween 2009 in NYC at Iggy's karaoke bar upper East Side.

Joanna was dressed as Anna Nicole Smith and if you look carefully you will see her prop, Anna's dog Sugar Pie. I was obviously a French Maid (was going to be a gory one but had no time to do the gore make up as I was SWAMPED with work). I worked until 1am setting up the Depeche Mode tour for massages (Dot Bots all lined up). 

 I had a BLAST singing last night, but sang songs I knew the crowd would love rather than singing the ones I really wanted to try for the first time (it was PACKED and crowed wanted greatest hits sort of thing). I did Whole Lotta Love, I Feel Good, I just want to make love to you (Etta James), Dirty Deeds (done dirt cheap) - and another that I can't remember. Hmmmmm. I only had ONE wine spritzer, totally being a good girl (still off coffee too :)

Well, not much time to write as I have to get up early. Guess I will return to Berlin end of this month, I miss my friends. Torn between two lovers (Berlin and NYC! :)

I feel honored and silly for caring about it..

I sent him that pic a year ago I think.. better late than never 

 You simply have to read about this band to understand:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dethklok

 Bassist Bryan Beller and his wife Kira are friends of mine. Bryan and Mike, below are playing with Dethklok currently. It was a very unique experience for me to see this show. Not used to that kind of music (extremely hard rock, almost like death metal I guess) but the animation they show during their concert was so bizarre. Words fail me. Probably because it is 10 am and I am STILL up. I think I have strep throat :( FUCK!! Gotta get to bed. Tour dates below

 Frank Zappa alum and friend, Mike Keneally . I haven't seen him in person since I was on the 1988 Frank Zappa tour! We have kept in touch online, but it was GREAT to see him again. SUPER nice guy, AMAZING guitarist.

 Napoleon (aka Napi) called me last night from Amsterdam, told me he is there recording with Zappa alum George Duke. Asked me to come over if I was in Berlin, but I am not I am in NYC, so I can't massage those guys even though I would love to be there. Can't be everywhere at once, innit? He also mentioned doing press for the upcoming release of his cd:

An historical CD will be released in December 2009 entitled “This is What Frank Zappa Heard - Just in Case You Were Wondering - Live at the Red Noodle in Waikiki, Hawaii”.

     On August 8th, 1973, Frank Zappa was alerted by his road manager, Marty Perellis, that an incredible band with an extraordinary lead singer was performing downtown to a
standing room only audience … and that it might be wise that he come and see this for himself.

     When Zappa went to the club and watched the show, he saw a young talent sing, dance, play sax, flute and keyboards, in a manner that clearly made it appear that he was having
more fun than even the other patrons in the club.

     After two hours of observing and listening to this young man and his very disciplined band of musicians, he introduced himself as Frank Zappa, and the young man introduced
himself as Napoleon Murphy Brock. The next words out of Zappa’s mouth were, “You are my new lead vocalist.” (Check napol

eonmbrock.com – INTERVIEWS - for more details of these conversations.)
     The rest is history, as these releases attest to:

APOSTROPHE          ROXY & ELSEWHERE          ONE SIZE FITS ALL            BONGO FURY
YOU CAN’T DO THAT ON STAGE ANYMORE – LIVE IN HELSINKI FINLAND       
THE DUB ROOM SPECIAL (DVD)            A TOKEN OF HIS EXTREME (DVD)

Contact me:  info@drdot.com and put "Kristin/Seattle" in the subject line, thank you.

Hi, I’m Kristin. I was born in Waikiki, Hawaii, and raised in Washington State. Massage has always been a way of life in Hawaii, and being raised Hawaiian Style, it was always something that the children did for the elders. It was while working as an assistant to a chiropractor/Hawaiian Kahuna that I realized the gift that I hold in my hands. He was the one who told me, “I have the knack.”

I finished Massage school in 2002, and went on the road for a year selling concessions with a show. It was upon returning home to the Tacoma area that I seriously started practicing massage and there has been no turning back. I worked for 3 years in a Physical Therapy clinic perfecting my injury/rehabilitation massage. I am Nationally Certified and a member of the ABMP (Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals). I am trained in many different modalities and pull them out of my “toolbox” as needed.

• Hot Stone
• Massage Cupping
• Reflexology
• Aromatherapy
• Structural Relief Therapy
• Deep Tissue Hawaiian Lomi Lomi
• Manual Lymphatic Drainage
• Reiki Master/Teacher

I celebrated my "30th" birthday (again :) at Tonic in NYC KARAOKE!! (me, Chrissi, Catherine W. and Jonesy, not pictured, too)

 Santiego, from "hand of god" Argentina. He is a drummer in a rock band, he hung with us for a while. Pretty dude eh?

So NYC is cold again. We were lucky and had a couple SUPER warm days, but the leg warmers went back on today, omfg. FREEZIN'. I went for my MRI the other day of left knee and will go Monday to ORTHO Doc to have him analyze it and tell me which surgery I will need. NOT looking forward to that!

So I had to buy a new Mac, the latest one they have, Snow Leopard program, goes SUPER FAST, it's like butter!! Still keeping old one though, one can never have too many Mac Book Pros!! They truly are the best. I bought a new one as the old one had a keyboard issue and I THOUGHT I would have to go without it for a week but APPLE called 18 hours after I dropped off old one for repairs saying it was ready for pick up. DAM those folks are good. But as I said, this new one is miles faster. I JUST need to learn how to use iMovies and I will be happy. 

Been spending LOTS of time with Jasmine since I have been back and that is always a good thing. So strange, when I am in Berlin I feel at home there and don't want to leave. Same thing happens when I am here in NYC. BUT then my heart yearns to live in England, it always has and always will. I know it is expensive and dangerous too, but I just love England. Perhaps the grass is always greener and I wouldn't like it if I lived there. Last time I massaged Simon Cowell, it was in Birmingham and I told him I would love to just move there and stay and he freaked out and said "Good Lord Dot, not there, London is the place for you!". ha. 

 "Chasing Amy" is on TV. Great movie. This film made my ex EXTREMELY uncomfortable, guess it hit too close to home (about a guy dating a HOT chick and his best friend being bitchy and trying to break them up, turns out his friend is secretly in love with him) heh heh.

NYC is still fun and there is karaoke every single night in more than one place but I don't like to go out more than once a week (if that). Dealing with drunks is just annoying. Got a Spinning bike and treadmill at my flat now and weights (who needs to join a gym?). Plus I have more than enough writing to do. At the end of the day (which for me is around 5 or 6 am) I am so exhausted from answering emails that I never get around to writing the books I want to write (& Blog) and have to REALLY dig deep to find the time to write my sex columns (I LOVE helping folks but turning all the Q & A's into a tidy column is not as easy as you may think).

 Trying out something new- writing this while on new spin bike- working ok so far. Just hate sitting still for too long, which is a problem as most of my work is done online coordinating massages and answering people's love/relationship/sex questions. LOTS of time on ass in front of computer and I hate it. 

 Gota go, sweating is NOT good for the new Mac.. by the way, how HOT is Madonna lately? SCHWING! You go girl!!

ps. Follow me on twitter, I write on there much more often than here as I can do so anywhere:

 Email me at:  info@drdot.com and put "Emorvula/Munich"in subject line please :)

My name is Emorvula but everybody calls me Morvi. I did my exam in medical massages 24 years ago. Since then I never stopped learning new massage techniques. My two lovely kids were very often my inspiration to go and on. Some interesting classes of the past were for example Footreflex-Segment-Dorntherapy, Lymphdrainage, Deep Tissue, Hot Stone, Ayurveda, Aromatherapy- or Thai-massage.

My signature massage is a customized mix out of all these techniques, sometimes moor powerful, sometimes softer, just as the clients need is. My clients are mostly sportsman like football player, mountain-bikers, marathonians, triathletes or the guests of the five star hotels I am working at.

Besides giving massages with my loving hands I teach interested people in reflexology massages at the adult education center.
