For the past several years I have struggled with getting (and staying) fit. Ok I admit it, the struggle has been longer than just a few years. As a kid, instead of playing nicely with the girls, I fought with the neighborhood boys. I attempted to join their fun and received new scars weekly in bloody games of soccer. I was always the last one picked to play on the kickball team and, as the catcher of my 5th grade softball team, I pummeled the pitcher in the head with a fast ball. Uncoordinated in team sports, I succeeded only at baton twirling which was fun but I barely broke a sweat. After failures in group sports I thought I'd try running so, a few years ago I attempted to train for a half marathon. I ended up limping home in tears and thought I’d never exercise again. (I couldn't even MOVE after that, much less exercise!)

We all suffer from stress from time to time but the degree to which it affects our lives has a great deal to do with how we cope with it. Unfortunately, in all too many cases people often unwittingly compound the problem rather than solve it.

People find they have more stamina, better posture and circulation and generally feel better all over. Regular shiatsu helps the body heal itself and many find it relieves daily symptoms of our hectic lifestyle such as fatigue, headache, indigestion, general aches and pains and PMS.

Everything is big in Texas, including stress levels. Dallas spas should be places you spend time at least once a month.
