Hot Stone Therapy - Level 1 (June 13th 10am-5pm)
Dear Friends,
I will be teaching my techniques for Hot Stones Massage on June 13th.  This is a great opportunity to learn from someone who does a lot of hot stones massages, and find out what makes it so special.  If you have received one of my hot stones massages, you know what I mean :-)! Many times I get calls to do "Couples Hot Stones Massage", so if you want to be trained in my methods so we can work synchronously, this course is for you.... Not a massage therapist, but still want to learn? Email me at jane@westshorewellness.com to talk about taking the course.
