Madonna, who has studied at seminars sponsored by the Massage Association and Polarity Therapy School, uses a combination of methods in her work, including a bit of the pounding found in Swedish massage, acupressure and polarity. . u u h There are few wasted motions as Madonna s hands slip and slide over tired muscles from the neck down to the toes F irm yet soothing, she lets her fingers do the talking The masseuse said she has cured migraine headaches June.

Massage is not to be confused with chiropractic, John, a student at Western States Chiropractic College, said. “ I don’t crack necks or backs,” Madonna explained Madonna’s specialty is foot reflexology, which is based on the theory that nerve endings in the body correspond to nerves that end in certain spots in the feet. Until a person has had a foot massage, it’s difficult to imagine the sen sations that can revolve around ten toes "T here are sensory impulses that come right through the middle of the spinal cord and end in the feet,” John McKenzie to head Hoodland Chamber F ea tu rin g The W orks O f Gresham David said.
