I love to spread the JOY of Healing and Relaxation through massage and bodywork, because everyBODY deserves to feel GREAT! Did you want to revamp your medicine cabinet or first-aid kit? For myself, I have a few must-haves that I recommend to have on hand for those "just in case" occasions that happen. On Guard protective blend essential oil: great for eliminating and controlling pathogens due to the potency of its constituents.
This blend can be diffused to eliminate airborne pathogens. Dilute and rub on pulse points of the extremities, or on neck or behind ears for sore throat or earache. Melaleuca essential oil: this oil has cleansing and regenerative properties; this oil is considered to be anti-fungal, disinfectant, and good for flus and colds. Oregano essential oil: this oil is high in antioxidant activity and contains phenolic acids and flavonoids.
This is considered a "hot" oil and should be diluted. Lavender essential oil: calms and relaxes. When you have a headache, instead of reaching directly for an OTC aid, try the following: 1 Drink a glass or two of water.

I am very picky about body workers, being one myself I know the good from the not so good, Joy is awesome!
She gets the job done right!
Great massage, lots of useful tips and knowledge of how our bodies are the way they are and how to get the right therapy to stay on the healthy path without drugs or medications.
There are massage therapists and then there is JOY from Joyful Hands Therapeutic Bodywork!
I am the type of guy that enjoys a massage as much as the rest of us.
I usually go with my wife and it is usually at a great resort like La Costa, La Quinta, The Grand Wailea etc.

You undress only to your comfort level.
It is more important that you are comfortable (rather than naked) so you are able to relax more fully.
However, for all other massages please note that you are always under the top sheet and that only the body part that the therapist is working on is uncovered.
After the massage therapy is completed for that area, the sheet is re-draped to cover you back up.
A shower before the massage appointment would be appropriate if you were doing something to make you dirty and/or stinky.
