Amazing Chiropractor in Phoenix, Arizona

Tuesday, 9 February 2010 3:58 A GMT-05

Contact me at: info@drdot.com and put "Dr. Brennan/Phoenix" in the subject line. 

 

Hi, I'm Dr. Brennan, a Dr. Dot Chiropractor. My role as a chiropractor simply put, is to get your joints and muscles to function properly. I take a unique approach as a Chiropractor in which I treat your muscles with soft tissue mobilization techniques along with the chiropractic adjustments to the joints of your spine and body. This progressive approach helps you feel better, live better, and perform better faster. So, wither you have recently been injured, have chronic pain, or are looking to prevent injuries and improve performance, I can help.

In order to provide the best non-surgical care available and enhance Chiropractic care I have gone on after Chiropractic College to become a Board Certified Physiotherapist, a Board Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, Manipulation Under Anesthesia Certified, Certified Kinesio Taping Practitioner, and a Certified Graston Technique Practitioner. These additional certifications and techniques give me the tools I need, to get the results you deserve.

I am very comfortable working entertainment and sporting events. I am the official chiropractor for the Arizona Derby Dames all woman roller derby league and a founding member of the Arizona Association of Chiropractic Sports Council. I love what I do and enjoy the challenge of working outside my office.

If you want the best, then book me for your next event. I look forward to helping you feel, live, and perform better through Chiropractic!

Massage in Philly (Philadelphia, PA)

Tuesday, 9 February 2010 3:52 A GMT-05

Email me at: info@drdot.com and put "Stephanie/Philly" in the subject line :)

 

 

My name is Stephanie and I am a Licensed Massage Therapist in Philly. 

I am in my late twenties and a recently married Leo. I have journeyed to a 100% raw vegan lifestyle, for healing of my mind, body and soul. My hobbies are hiking, meditating, chanting, yoga, massaging, healing, consciously evolving, loving and most of all enjoying life thankfully. Living life to my fullest potential gracefully is another very important part of my life.

I have been massaging for about 7 ½ years and went to school for massage in Pennsylvania and loved every minute of it. I love to be of service to others (selfless acts of love). I have also been doing yoga for 10 years and just received my teaching certification. I am a wounded healer and I believe that is how I got into the healing arts. I was also told by a shaman that this is what I need to be doing and I truly believe she was right.

In the times we are living in, I believe being of service to others is what we humans are supposed to be doing with thankful, loving intentions. I sincerely love what I do and people truly love and appreciate what I do for them. In return these people heal my soul and bring a strong sense of peace, satisfaction and gratitude for what I do.

This is a beautiful journey and I am a beautiful being of love and light. My enthusiasm is contagious and I am a happy, joyful person and am always creating positivity.

I send much love and light and big hugs. Be well and many blessings. Peace, love and happiness. Namaste!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you

Massage in San Diego, California

Tuesday, 9 February 2010 3:51 A GMT-05

Contact me: info@drdot.com and put "Jazmine/San Diego" in the subject line :)

 

Hey All! I'm Jazmine. San Diego is my hometown and it's in this beautiful city where I discovered my passion for Massage Therapy.

Inspired by the sun and ocean, it's not too farfetched that career wise I'd eventually land in the Holistic field. As a kid, I was always the play in the mud kind of girl. My awareness for massage began when I would go with my Mom to a hospital rehabilitation center for Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, & Massage Therapy. And with my Mom having Breast Cancer and a Dad who was sick, naturally, I wanted a career that helped people- relieved pain, stress, give a caring touch, whatever! Just all around make someone feel better! From then on, I'd work on my Mom when she was feeling uneasy, my Aunts and Uncle before and after they went to the gym, and soon enough, word spread to the rest of the family about what my little hands could do.

I have great love & appreciation for music. During times when no one else understands, there's always a song that does! It's created life friends, wonderful occasions, and memories. One of my Mom's enjoyments was putting together shows for the Filipino community, starring one Filipino famous artist and local singers- what an experience! Music is truly amazing on so many levels. That's why I'm so particular of the songs I choose for my Massage sessions! In my spare time, I love creating and crafting; I enjoy making jewelery, candles, and sewing. I always have a new project!

Trained and Certified in the Following Modalities: (In bold, I consider my specialties):
Swedish, Advanced Circulatory & Sports Massage, Shiatsu, Sports Injuries, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point Therapy, Western Herbs, Aromatherapy, Spa Techniques, Chair Massage, Geriatric Massage, Hot Stone Massage, Lomi Ka'Ala Hoku

I am very appreciative to be a part of Dr. Dot's team, and excited to possibly work on you! Thanks for taking the time to read a little about myself :D If you'd like to get in touch with me, contact the Doc!

Massage in Frankfurt/Main, Germany

Tuesday, 9 February 2010 3:42 A GMT-05

 

Email me: info@drdot.com and put "Bianca/Frankfurt" in the subject line please :)

 

 

Hello, I am Bianca and I live in Frankfurt/Main. Everywhere I am going, I am trying to spread love and warmth.

 

Since my childhood, I have massaged everyone who wanted me to do that. Every time, when the massaged ones said to me that I did a really good job and that I am having healing hands, I felt a great satisfaction inside of me. After some detours in my life, I have decided to make this passion to my profession. So, I have started to study massage (classical massage, Ayurvedic massage, wellness massage etc.) and have a continuous practice in my personal surrounding.

Apart from that, I am practicing martial arts and yoga which are also as important as massaging.

My first job with Dr. Dot was on a Nickelback concert in Mannheim.

So, come and book my hands in combination with my warm and big smile.

Massage in Santa Monica California and Zurich, Switzerland

Tuesday, 9 February 2010 3:13 A GMT-05

To reach me, email me at: info@drdot.com and put "Angel/Santa Monica/Zurich" in subject line please. 

 

 

Hi there, my name is Angela. I liver in Zurich, Switzerland but spend a lot of time in Santa Monica as well.

I was born 1986 in Winterthur, Switzerland in a patchwork - family of artists and therapists. Music, Dance and Bodywork were constant companions in my childhood. Since then my passion for Music, Dance and Massage is growing.

For many years, I was an active member of a Rock-Choir while also studying and performing dance. It was during that time that I also studied and developed several massage-techniques. I am very interested in travelling and experiencing other cultures.

My interest in massage therapy developed in my childhood where I would intuitively massage members of my family and friends. They all enjoyed it very much and the positive feedback encouraged me to go on and further study and explore in this field. One of the important schools I studied in is the “Swiss Prävensana Academy”. For a few years I have worked as a self-employed freelance bodyworker for artists, musicians, and sportsmen; both little known as well as famous.

I am grateful for all the experiences I have had and I am keen to improve on all levels. Over time I have developed my own technique which focuses on punctual intuitive deep massages and energetic massage (anamawe). I am responsive to the individual needs of my clients.

I am ready and looking forward to offering you many happy moments of deep relaxation while massaging you. I do incalls, outcalls and accompany you on tour as you wish and need. To be a part of Dr. Dot's Team is an honour and a pleasure.

May we all be happy and well and free!
Angela

Massage in Paris, France

Tuesday, 9 February 2010 3:04 A GMT-05

 

 

Contact me at: info@drdot.com and put "Aiko/Paris" in the subject line to reach me fast. 

 

My name is Akiko.

I have worked as a freelance photographer both for the press and the music industry during the last 10 years, although I have always felt attracted by natural therapies and energetic healing.

I thus decided to take up another of my passions and became a masseuse. I was very interested in the technique of Thai massage and decided to get trained directly in Thailand to learn traditional Thai massage. My first trip to Thailand was 5 years ago. Since then, I have given massages to private customers.

Thai massages are best practiced on the floor and I usually use a futon, although I can also work with a massage table. During events and forums, I practice the massage Amma where the client is seated on a chair.

Best massage in London

Tuesday, 9 February 2010 2:55 A GMT-05

Email me:  info@drdot.com and put "Therese/London"

 

Hi, my name is Therese; I’m an experienced masseuse specializing in deep tissue massage. In addition, internationally trained Indian Head massage, Usui Ryoho Reiki (Master level), Balinese massage, Hot Stones, Facial massage, London trained ITEC & BTEC Holistic Massage, Manual Lymphatic Drainage and Pregnancy massage.

Originally from Papua New Guinea and educated in Australia, a side-trip to Thailand many years ago sparked a passion for travel that hasn’t stopped and currently sees me living in London. After extensive travel and working in hospitality, charities and the corporate sector, my priorities began to shift in 2002 after receiving my first massage. I then completed my first massage course resulting in my passion for bodywork and energy therapies. It inspired me to immerse myself in studying and practicing various traditions of massage full time over the last 4 years.

I’m privileged to have studied with amazing teachers and learnt from many inspirational clients around the world: everyone from musicians, celebrities, athletes to domestic goddesses. Each experience is personalized to incorporate one or many techniques to maximize relaxation, release tension and increase overall well being. I’m prepared to travel, commit to a dedicated programme or one off session.

On a personal level I love to dance, attend music festivals and embrace all life has to offer when experiencing new cultures and adventures.

Dr. Dot inspired me to integrate all my skills and passion into supporting artists, creative minded people and anyone who needs respite from the day to day grind. I’m very happy to be part of her global team.

Sports Therapy Massage in Manchester, England

Monday, 25 January 2010 7:27 P GMT-05

Email me at: info@drdot.cm and put "Andrew/Manchester" in the subject line

 

My name is Andrew and I’m a qualified massage therapist from Australia.

Born and bread in Melbourne, I discovered the benefits of massage a few years back while working the 9-5 office job. The impact that massage had on me physically and mentally changed my life, and led me to jump in and learn this amazing craft, so that I could share it’s benefits with others.

I have since graduated from the Australian College of Massage and gained experience working in deep tissue, relaxation, and aromatherapy massage through my own mobile massage business. For me, massage has several rewards. It gives me the chance to connect with people to help in the healing process, and it gives me enjoyment seeing the immediate satisfaction that massage can bring.

I’ve been living in Manchester for 6 months now, and being a part of Dr. Dot’s team gives me the chance to combine massage with my other passion - music. Having played in a band for 9 years, I know the stress that constant touring and performing can have on a person, both physically and mentally. It’s this awareness that I bring to my role on Dr Dot’s team. Whether it’s a pre-show loosen up, or a post-show wind down, my healing hands are here to help. I therefore consider myself a fortunate member of the team, as I know what it’s like to be in your shoes!

But I’m not restricted to massaging backstage at gigs. I also do call outs to hotels, homes and other events. Name the place and I’ll be there.

Cheers,
Andrew

Massage in Berlin, Germany

Monday, 25 January 2010 6:56 P GMT-05

Contact me:  info@drdot.com and put "Silke/Berlin" in the subject line please. 

 

My name is Silke and I‘m from the beautiful Lake of Constance in Southern Germany.

Since a few years I am working as an Ayuvedic and Massage Therapist in Berlin (Germany) and recently I joined the Team of Dr. Dot. As I love Rock and Metal Music and being surrounded by other creative people it is a gift to me being able to combine my passion for music and travel with my skill of making YOU feel better.

After I finished my High School Degree I became a certified travel agent. That job made traveling all over the world affordable to me. I soon found out that working in an office wasn't going to fulfill me and I knew there must be something giving me more gratification. I believe it was destiny that I learned about Ayurveda in Sri Lanka, the whole philosophy made so much sense to me. So back in Germany I became a certified Ayurvedic Therapist and enhanced my knowledge afterwards with practical training at an Ayurvedic Clinic in India.

During that time I found out how rewarding it is to make people feel better. Naturally I acquired some more certificates and this is my repertoire so far that a lot of people enjoyed already: Ayurveda, Thai Massage, Lomi Lomi Massage, Hot Stone and last but not least of cause the Massage all Dr. Dot Assistance are famous about a very Deep Tissue Massage.

I'm looking forward to help you to revitalize for your next powerful performance.

Hi! I'm Bonnye, and I've been a nationally certified massage therapist since 2004.

I'm really looking forward to seeing you soon!

Massage in Barcelona, Spain

Saturday, 16 January 2010 11:29 P GMT-05

Email me at info@drdot.com and put "Miram/Barcelona" in the subject line, thanks :)

 

 

Hello,

My name is Mariam, I'm French and I've been living in Barcelona for a couple month. I've been introduced to Reiki in 2004 which opened my mind to traditional Chinese medicine: I then enrolled the "Institut CHUZHEN" for a 3 year full time course. This school is the most famous and well-recognized in France, the only one offering a full time 3-years course that fully trained me to acupuncture and tuina. Tuina is a therapeutic massage based on the body's meridian, using acupuncture points. Thereafter I completed my massage course with a Sensitive Gestalt Massage training which led me to specialize myself in relaxation massage.

Thanks to the combination of these 2 massage techniques, I created a unique, powerful and relaxing massage that will release you from all physical and mental tensions. My massage is a full-body piece that will help you to re-energize yourself, feeling well-balanced and deeply relaxed.

I'm looking forward to take care of you!

Best regards,
Mariam

 

I LOVE LIVERPOOL

Friday, 15 January 2010 2:33 A GMT-05

Been all around the UK and my favorite place hands down is Liverpool. This is the 3rd time I visited Liverpool and as they say, third time's a charm. MUCH friendlier than Manchester and London. LOVES IT!!!!!

Here are some pics I have taken so far. I will complete the blog when I have time (made MANY videos too, so I have to edit them etc still)

 

Me at Albert Docks, enjoying the sun

View from my hotel room (fucking FREEZING here)

I feel like I belong here. I feel at 'home' here. I wish I could live here in Liverpool. Seriously. 

Beatles EVERYWHERE, loves it!

The Mona Lennon. Cost 150 pounds and it would never fit in my luggage, so I pic will have to do. I spent LOADS in the Beatles shops.

Out with local friends at karaoke

 

My good friend Jamie on the left, me and his twin brother Eddy out to karaoke at the famous Grapes Pub where the Beatles used to hang out back in the Cavern days (there was no backstage at the Cavern and so the bands hung out at the Grapes until it was their turn to play). Mathew Street. 

Jamie drunk as FUCK singing "I drove all night". It was so BAD that it was good. haha

The Blonde (Michelle)  is Jamie's girlfriend and the Brunette (Leah) is Eddy's girl. They were singing Dolly Parton's 9 to 5. Went over well, but my ears are craving rock and ROLL

 

Another mate named Jamie's Led Zepp tattoo. Mad cool innit?

 

I have had more fun in Liverpool in a few days than I have had in a year in Berlin. The people are SO FRIENDLY and the place is clean. Not expensive either and there is no thug/violent atmosphere going on as rumor has it. I hear so often from Mancunians how horrible Liverpool is and you know what? It's not true. I didn't like Manchester at all. I felt scared there, saw MANY fights, it was dirty as fuck and super expensive. I am a Liverpool fan, in every sense of the word. 

As I said, I will add onto this later. I will list the best places to sing for the karaoke freaks, but to be honest, you can't swing a cat without finding a pub that has karaoke on. It seems EVERY place has it, aaaah, I am in love with this place. 

 

 

Liverpool part 1, video I made...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jan 20, 2010...

 

Just returned from the Fab Four Beatles Taxi Tour (cost 50 pounds per taxi and you can bring up to 5 people in it but I went with one friend)

It's really cool, they come and get you where ever you are in Liverpool and then they bring you to all the Beatles sights. I made lots of videos, but it will take a while before I can edit the film, as I STILL can't do it on my MAC, so I have to wait to get back to Berlin to do it on my PC. UGH.

Still NOT bored with Liverpool. It does exhaust me being a tourist, as I am used to having down time but I love it here. Everyone is SO friendly and ready for a laugh. I heard many times, mostly from Londoners and Mancs, that the "Scousers are thieving cunts" but so far NO ONE has even looked at me funny, so I think that is just an ugly rumor. I like it here and no one can change my mind. NATURALLY I have found things I don't like but these are things that happen all over the UK (everything shuts early, no one wears a fucking coat outside even thought it is FREEZING!!) and people drink WAY too much. Oh, and it is hard to find a healthy restaurant. BUT other than that, I love it and would move here tomorrow if I could.


The Case history of Liverpool, check it out here:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/liverpool/culture/2002/07/art_tour/suitcases.shtml

 

 

My hilarious friend Jamie ^ and I at Strawberry Fields. He is a native Liverpudlian but has never been on a Beatles tour until now

 

 

 "Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes"

My pal Jamie, a native of Liverpool and I did the Beatles tour together. It was bloody FREEZING, but fun. This is the 2nd time I did the tour (last time was 1988 with an older lady named Hilary who still does the tour in a mini bus)

Roundabout at Penny Lane...

"Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
A pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
And though she feels as if she's in a play
She is anyway"

 

 

"In Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs
Of every head he's had the pleasure to know
And all the people that come and go
Stop and say hello"

 


Wolton Graveyard, where Eleanor Rigby is burried+ Beatles old hang out ^

 

 

"Eleanor Rigby, picks up the rice
In the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream

Waits at the window, wearing the face
That she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?"

 

 

 

 

 

 George Harrisons childhood home, Arnold Grove ^

 
John Lennon's childhood house on Menlove Ave, Liverpool  ^


Birth place of John Lennon: Oxford Hospital, Liverpool ^

 


Liverpool Registry Office ^ (John Lennon married Cynthia there and John's parents wed there too)

 
Paul McCartney's childhood home  ^ (the 7th home the family lived in). They stayed here the longest. 

 

Where the Beatles used to rehearse/play

 Smelt like they haven't aired it out since 1960 and all

 

 

Check out my Beatles Tour video:

 

John Lennon statue on Mathew street and I

Got coaxed into coming into  a 70's themed disco called Flares ^ I did dance my ass off when they started playing Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5 too. LOVED IT. Kinda caught a cold after leaving disco as I was rather sweaty from dancing and it froze right onto my body when I left the club. DOH!

 

 

I'm not kidding, girls/ladies/women dress in costume on normal nights, in normal bars. It is NOT Halloween or some sort of Costume party, they just dress up like this for the hell of it. I have been to a few clubs and many pubs (for karaoke) since I have been in Liverpool and I can't believe how people dress up. Guys/boys/men dressed up as a robot or super man, just out dancing like that or in this case above, just out to the pub. 

 

MANY females in Liverpool over do it with tanning beds. They look orange. And they really really dress to impress. High heels EVERYWHERE, all the time. I love it that smoking is NOT allowed inside and unlike the stubborn Germans, they really obey and smoke outside! It's great.

 

 I went to Smokey Mos ^ , they have karaoke on Saturday night, sound is GREAT, huge song list, short waiting time. It's kind rough looking but everyone is really friendly. 

 

My favorite place to sing in Liverpool so far is The Crocodile. They have karaoke almost every night. Great sound, BIG song list but rather long wait. 

 

 

Did not see ONE bicycle in Liverpool. I heard there never is any either. No rollerbladers either, even in summer (that would change if I moved here innit :)

 

I met SO many special people here, some old friends, some new. I love this place and would love to move here.

 

Last video.....

 

 

 

 

The main reason I went to Liverpool was to massages long time, loyal clients, Nickelback. They were in town Jan 16th for production day and the show was Jan 17th at the Echo Arena. 

 

Mike, Nickelback bassist, LOVES the Dr. Dot team's massages. And we love him :)

 

Opening act Daughtry's bassist was super cool. I massaged the singer "Daughtry" himself as well, but he doesn't pose for pictures. Sorry.

Dave Gahan is fantastic

Sunday, 10 January 2010 3:48 P GMT-05

So after two days of massaging Dave again, I am thinking he is for sure one of my favorite clients. Simon Cowell, Joe Jackson too. Dave is so mellow, low maintenance for sure a big star. Generous, polite, charming, fun. He is looking fitter than ever! I swear every time I see him he looks younger. He is in tip top form now in every way. Healthy as can be. Good to see that.

Dave was kind enough to put me and my friend on the guest list for Saturday nights Berlin show. Great seats and backstage passes. The show was incredible and I am not even a big Depeche Mode fan. I only know a few of their songs. I am a rock chick, no doubt about that. Beatles, Frank Zappa, Hendrix, Led Zepp, Ac/Dc, etc. BUT I did enjoy the show. The sound was fucking PERFECT and the band was tight. Lights and video were mad cool and Dave's dancing is so erotic on stage, I could tell the whole venue wanted to shag him. Seriously.

The crowd showed them so much love, they did NOT hold still one minute and knew every word to every song. VERY high energy. No wonder he is so fucking fit. 

 

I feel funny asking Dave for an autograph as we are buddies and he is my client and I am his therapist but this will look nice on my massage wall. He was mad cool about it, like no big deal. I adore him for that. This pic above was from last time, in June He was just getting over being ill in the pic above. I think you can tell he is much healthier now by the new picture below:

Sigur Ros was his choice of massage music again and I have to admit, they are growing on me now. 

 

 

 

 

 

I left early because I am swamped with work at the moment and not feeling well (Kidney/Urinary Tract infection) and I left my friend there, she said she was fine alone. BUT she left after the show and didn't even go backstage as she is shy. I thought, wow, so many people in there would have LOVED to go backstage but neither of us did lol.


I did not even take a camera into the show, I nabbed this just now from Youtube for your pleasure, and you know I like to give pleasure.

 

 

The last few years I have only massaged Dave, but I have massaged Martin before too, years ago in Berlin at the Waldbuhne:

 

I have seen him since, at the hotel always, and he is super polite and sweet- we shared an elevator in June. I have to say, he is fucking gorgeous in person. Schwing! He smelt so nice when I massaged him that time and I asked him what scent he was wearing and it was Amen, from Thiery Mugler. (Angel for Men). Smells sooooo delicious. I went out and bought Angel for women because of that day and I sometimes still wear it (I have a favorite perfume, not tellin' you though :)

I massaged Andrew too but can NOT find the picture right now, and it's bothering the shit out of me, ugh! I will find it, thing is, it isn't labeled on my computer so it will take hours, hours I don't have, to find it. sigh. I have to say, I am not a big fan of their music but to know THEM is to love them. Such wonderful guys. I only know (and love) "No Good" and "Enjoy the Silence" and then I like "Just can't get enough" and my friend played me "Personal Jesus" and I love that song but only knew the cover version from Marylin Manson. So kill me why don't ya?

Massage in New Orleans, Louisiana

Sunday, 10 January 2010 2:55 P GMT-05
Email me: info@drdot.com  and put "Candance/NewOrleans" in subject line please :)
 
 
My name is Candace. I am a Licensed Massage Therapist in the State of Louisiana, working in the Baton Rouge area.  I am very delighted and excited to be a part of the Dr. Dot team.
 
My massage is defined as deep tissue with a twist. I allow the muscle tissue to lead and guide me when and where to do a special technique. Each and every massage is customized to the client. I don't believe in a "cookie cutter" session. Every "body" is intitled to it's own recipe.
 
My role as a Massage Therapist is to bring awareness to mind, body, and spirit. I believe that touch is a very powerful and profound healing tool. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to express my passion. We know that love, health, and happiness are keys to a fulfilled life. As a growing Massage Therapist, I recognize the increased stress in the world. With my help you will be able to perform your work more effectively and efficiently. My goal is to think of every task as an opportunity to challenge my mind and hands.
 
 

Massage in Buffalo, NY

Friday, 8 January 2010 8:55 P GMT-05

Reach me at: info@drdot.com and put "Jenn/Buffalo" in subject line please :)

 

 

 

Hi, my name is Jennifer and I live in Buffalo, NY. I have been a Licensed Massage Therapist for over 8 years.


After moving to NYC at the age of 17, I was blessed to study dance with some of the best choreographers and teachers in the world. For years I danced with a modern dance company, which allowed me to tour Europe and eastern Asia. While traveling I also had the opportunity to get massage therapy in amazing spas from Prague to Tokyo. This is where I found my new passion in life…Massage!!


I graduated from The New York College of Wholistic Health, Education and Research in 2002. Directly out of school I opened my own Massage Therapy Center. I also offered home visits to clients in Manhattan, Atlantic Beach and the Hamptons.


I have been trained and am competent to practice Deep Tissue, Therapeutic, Reflexology, Trigger Point Therapy, Hot Stone Massage, Medical Massage and Sports Massage.


Now that I have relocated back to my hometown of Buffalo, I have been given the great opportunity to become a part of the Dr. Dot team, and I feel so lucky to work as one of her assistants.


I may be only 5’1”, but don’t let that fool you…I give a really deep massage! So if that is what you are looking for, and you are in the Buffalo, Rochester or Toronto area, book your next massage with me.

"Enjoy the Silence"

Friday, 8 January 2010 6:50 P GMT-05

Massaged Dave (Depeche Mode) Gahan again today, he is sooooo nice. Super healthy and fit; I swear he just gets younger every year :)

Again we listened to his iPod mix of Sigur Ros, he is getting me hooked them now. Great music for massage. I am going to see their (Depeche Mode) show tomorrow thanks to Dave's generosity (and his super polite assistant Tim). 

 

Anyways, a friend of mine Bebe Buell is going to perform next week in NYC and FUCK, I will miss it as I will be in the UK to massage Nickelback and my favorite client, Simon Cowell. You can't be everywhere at once, innit? 

I would LOVE to see/hear Bebe's show, I heard her before in NYC and she is sex on legs, ear candy, eye candy and you just have to love her. 

 

 

 

Bad news: I have a kidney infection/urinary track infection, ugh!! No more wanking for a while I guess. That seems to throw me off balance, I am so sensitive. (I know, too much information, got it). I am on antibiotics again and these pills make me nauseous and dizzy and I sleep for two hours heavily, then I am awake for HOURS and can't fall back to sleep. SUPER annoying!

Gotta go, gotta eat, starving. I am on twitter more than here nowadays (dr_dot) so if you are on there, hit me up. ttyl

Massage in Aberdeen, Scotland

Thursday, 7 January 2010 11:57 P GMT-05

Email me: info@drdot.com and put "Shona/Aberdeen" in the subject line to reach me fast. 

 

HI :)

My name is Shona and I am very excited to join Dr Dot’s team as it is a perfect opportunity to link massage with my love for music. My interest for music began at a young age when I attended many gigs and festivals such as T in the Park. My passion for music lead me to study for a BA in Events and Entertainment Management at Glasgow Caledonian University. During my time studying in Glasgow I experienced many different types of Complementary Therapies which encouraged me to gain the necessary qualifications to allow me to practise in this area.


I am currently running my own Complementary Therapy business from home as well as working on behalf of Health Promotions doing therapeutic massages for staff at local schools. I am fully qualified in Aromatherapy, Swedish Massage, Reflexology, Indian Head Massage, Hot Stone Massage, Advanced Body Massage and Trigger Point Therapy. I have plans to keep developing my skills and intend to start a Reiki course soon. I hold a full membership with the FHT (Federation of Holistic Therapists.


I am based just outside Aberdeen but I am happy to travel to any venues within Scotland .Being part of the Dr Dot team is a great opportunity and I look forward to meeting with clients and catering for their individual needs.

Hi my name is Lauren, and I am looking forward to being part of Dr.Dot's team in and around the Manchester area!
 
I originally started off as a nursery nurse and found my love for massage when I attended a night school course for full body massage therapy.  I realised this is what I wanted to do and I find it very rewarding when my clients have enjoyed their treatments and feel relaxed.
I wanted to expand my knowledge and skills and so I went on to do a Bachelor of science degree in Complimentary therapies at University in the city of Manchester.
 
Since passing my degree I have worked as a Complimentary therapist for a local salon, I also do mobile treatments which my clients have told me they thoroughly enjoy, as they can relax in their own home after one of my treatments, I take pride in my work and treat everyone of my clients as an individual.
 
My skills include - Reflexology - Indian Head Massage - Aromatherapy - Full Body Massage - Crystal healing - Ice Facial - Hopi ear candles - Thai foot massage - Manicure - Pedicure - Threading.
 
And I would still like to expand on these!
 
I was so pleased when I got the job as a Dr.Dot assistant and will look forward to seeing you in Manchester!

Massage in Berlin, Germany

Monday, 4 January 2010 7:15 P GMT-05

Email me: info@drdot.com and put "Christiane/Berlin" in the subject line please :)

 

 

Hello, my name is Christiane.

When I was eighteen I knew that bodywork was my vocation. Five years later, as a mother of two children, I started practical training in Shiatsu where I acquired skills such as back- pressure and other wonderful osteopathic techniques. Most of all I got a feel for doing the right thing in just the right moment. Then I became a physiotherapist, in order to reinforce my expertise and consolidate my specialist knowledge.

Since then I work in the medical and in the wellness sector where I treating critical ill patients, athletes, elderly people, children and just “ordinary people” like you successfully and enthusiastically. To my mind massage is not a job, its more a kind of meeting.
