I had a pampering deep tissue massage experience that combines the therapeutic pressure of deep tissue work with relaxing, spa-like comfort. The massage usually began in a calm setting with soft music, warm lighting, aromatherapy scents, heated towels, a warm massage table. Darby used firm, slow strokes and focused pressure to work into deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. This helps release chronic tension, tight knots, stiffness, and stress buildup--especially in areas like the neck, shoulders, back, hips, and legs. After the session, I felt completely melted into relaxation. Awesome feeling! Book a session w her right now and u will not regret it. And ...... u r very welcome!!!!

Thus, decided to do body waxing for the first time in my life. From where I grew up, I was taught to bear the pain, beiiing a man. I stood up telling myself that I can do it. As it get started, my body started shivering due to the fact that temperature was cold inside the room. But still, I tried to stick to my honor. The whole process of body waxing somehow, managed to enlighten me. Feeling of chilly weather and a jelly warm with soothing music on the background! My overall experience here was amazing.

It's been about five years since I attended spirit winds and I still can't get the dog shit taste…read moreout of my mouth. I waited years to be financially stable enough to attend. Choosing to go to this school instead of Thailand because my medical dependency on marijuana. First I had a neck problem and I'm the taller person in the class, my room was upstairs where there was about 4 foot high ceilings so I had to get dressed sitting down because I physically could not stand in my room. The room had a small deck with a chair. I assumed it would be ok to use this deck to take my medication on, I was very wrong. I am dyslexic and the handbook was a little confusing mostly because of the invented vocabulary PPI, PPM, or whatever palm pressure............I and another gal with the same disability felt like we were second class citizens. The morning stretches in the blinding hot sun, no thanks. Must always keep your head lower than a statue in the living room. This statue is about waist high. No sitting comfortably on the ground with your legs cross cross, you must sit on your bent legs crimping your knees in pain. If you pay to sleep outside and there's a storm your expected to stay outside. Me and the other girls lied to the teacher about letting another student sleep on the living room floor. During same storm a gal who did not pay for the herbal classes was asked to leave the property for the two days. She was from out of the country and had to ask to borrow another students car. She had nowhere to go and almost got in a car accident because the storm was so awful. Two days before the class was over the teacher asked to talk to me outside with a time of an angry mother. She had gone in my room and seen my medication. I was asked not to smoke in the home, of course I agree. I was asked to smoke off the property, I reluctantly agree. Then I'm told I can't smoke during class. A class the is all day long!!!!!!!! I use my medication to manage my stomach, I cannot function without it. I got up from out talk a little enraged and aggressively packed my car. The teacher followed me almost the entire time. It almost felt like I wasn't allowed to leave. I accidentally swiped a book of the schools when I left and felt bad about how I departed. I bought another book "the prophet" and purchased some tea and insence as a gift and sent it to the school with zero response from Janice, the teacher. I would like my credit hours registered with the state, that never happened nor was I never given a refund. I feel like I was discriminated against for being stupid and having a hiatle hernia. I've spoken with numerous students from this school. A lot of people like this class, a few people feel exactly the same as I.

Her massage was truly something special. I've had Thai massages in Thailand and receive massages regularly, but this was on a different level than what I have experienced. The day I got my massage, I woke up in a lot of pain, to the point that I took an Epsom salt bath early in the morning and applied at least 4 Salonpas patches on my most painful muscles. The massage I got relieved all of the pain I was feeling, and totally changed my energy. I don't know another way to say it except that. My body kept tingling during the massage. I don't have adequate vocabulary to describe it, but this is a massage you must experience yourself. Incredible!
