  • It's been a while! I'm back after quite a break to talk about the current epidemic, a little bit about how it's affecting Massage Therapy, and to show you a calming self care session you can follow along with. Just to help the stress a bit. Thank you to everyone for the support of the last couple months, you're amazing.

    This is exactly what the world needs now: self-care, self-love, opening up the body, stretching, calmness. I also don’t think you realize how relaxing your voice really is.
    Awesome vid.
    We missed you.

    So glad you are back, but I am glad that you were able to take a break even in our current circumstances!! Keep up the excellent work and dedication, Spencer!!! Imo, you have been one of the best CZcamsrs, LMTs, and overall people I have looked up to!!

    Judging from those biceps busting out of the T-Shirt you have been pretty busy on the weights during these last two months. But the stretching and relaxing routine is just the thing we need now to help calm us down , maybe a leg stretch video next

    I hope you're doing well dude. And I'm glad you're in a situation where you are financially able to close your business for a few weeks and not starve. Stay safe. I'm looking forward to your next videos.

    Welcome back Spencer. Your videos are always informative and well presented. As an independent therapist myself I too have closed for the next four weeks though I fear we will be inactive for many months to come. I agree that in our profession hygiene is a top priority so washing hands, keeping our massage rooms spotless and ensuring we provide first class service for our clients paramount. We also have to look after our own well being. Your looking great man. We all have to stay positive through this crisis.

    So good to hear from you again! I’m glad you are well. My friend and I attend Massage school together and we watch all your videos. I was worried you weren’t coming back so I messaged you on insta. Self care and social media breaks are good for the soul! Looking forward to your video tomorrow!
    I’d love to hear more about common indications/contraindications you see on a regular basis. Resources you use if you’re unsure of a certain condition/syndrome. Also more stretching techniques with clients.

    Spencer thank you for sharing with us what you do. I just started massage school 2 days ago and I'm really excited about this career. Your videos as well as other massage videos have inspired me to lose the fear of starting this career as a male MT. It's going to be a challenge but I've never been afraid of one yet. Looking forward to helping people feel better and relaxed.

    Great video, thank you!
    I’m north of Seattle - and a lot of Spa type massage places are now closed, my clinic is still open as I work with a chiropractor. I’ve been supplementing with Oil of Oregano (anti viral / anti bacterial) daily.
    Fortunately, we practice cleanliness with due diligence, and always have (one reason I left a different Chiro who wasn’t as clean, yuck)..
    I happened to purchase medical grade gloves about 3 days before everything went nuts, and have 2 boxes - buy 1 get 1 free on sale.
    We have been very picky about people coming into our clinic and so far our “regulars” are following protocol - if they are sick or had exposure they have rescheduled.
    My Chiro also wears a mask and gloves.
    Chiro adjustment is so important for the immune system (read up on 1918 and how chiro’s helped throughout the illness back then.
    Happinesses and health to everyone!

    I have been doing your self massage videos every night. In lock down in New Zealand. If you have the chance to make a self bicep massage that would be appreciated. Thank you Spencer, we can't get massages at the moment, but your instructions on how to do self massage is just as good. 🙌

  • @ladyscarfaceangel4616
    @ladyscarfaceangel4616 Před 4 lety

    Well, we are open where I’m at, but I’m wearing a mask since I’m shut up in a small room with the public all day in very close contact. We also refuse anyone who’s sick, & have everyone fill out a survey before, so if they’d recently traveled to a high risk area they must reschedule. This sucks for everyone, not just a few, but we all gotta come together & help each other stay safe.

  • @childofmercury3800
    @childofmercury3800 Před 4 lety +4

    I’m in Idaho and my place of employment refuses to close unless local authorities tell them to. I’m not impressed. We aren’t suppose to be within feet of each other or shake hands but we have to touch people’s entire bodies? Makes sense.

    • @davidm.2289
      @davidm.2289 Před 4 lety +4

      Child0fMercury I agree, I had a client on Sunday who had a problem with me shaking his hand, but wanted a full body massage... The logic. 🙄

    • @childofmercury3800
      @childofmercury3800 Před 4 lety +1

      My work won’t close unless local authorities tell them otherwise. Makes me really want to find another job after all of this blows over. Shows their true colors. My city was just placed under a state of emergency, though. MAYBE that will change it. But probably not. Stay safe, everyone!

    Hello Spencer, so good to see your video & especially at a time such as this. Thank you for the self-care stretching. personally, I’ve been working a lot and in a way I am kind of thankful for a break to get myself in better health to be a better therapist for my clients. I do try to stretch a little bit, work on my diet, sleep, get massages etc. I do struggle with my workouts. I’ve been trying to see a personal trainer once a week to do a little bit of strength training and sometimes I do yoga at home but I find it challenging with the soreness. If I have to go to work the next day it can be really challenging. I feel like I’m already getting a work out from work 😂 Do you have any tips on when to work out, before or after work. I know it’s always good to stretch but considering cardio and strength training do you have any tips? I know everyone is different but I sure would like to hear your thoughts. Also, I’m currently working for other businesses but I would like to establish my own business one day and maybe you can give a few tips. Did you save some money to have a few months rent paid? Also, Can you give us a few stretches you give your clients for a specific conditions like sciatica, low back pain etc? Sometimes I wonder if I should become certified as a yoga instructor or personal trainer as I tend to worry about things being outside of our scope of practice. OK, lots to talk about. I look forward to seeing more videos. Take care!

    I need a massage! And judging by the looks of those arms and hands I bet you give a mean one, more a fan of foot massages than a body massage but the people who I've gotten a body massage from probably just didn't know how to give a good one. Soo cute 😍 wish I was quarantined u for some good massages
