Massage greatly needed

The other day Jacky was telling me about how she went to a bath house and then the lady that was doing her body scrub told her that her shoulders were really tight. So the other day at school her shoulders were bothering her and she asked if i wouldnt mind giving her a shoulder massage- since i had offered earlier- and of course i didnt mind. I immdediately saw what the lady was talking about. Her shoulders were super super tight. Like...huge knots, no... actually like semi-soft rocks. At any rate, so i it is probably because some stress is causing it or something. I tried to loosen up her shoulders a bit, but they were so tight... i can only do so much. I mean, my massages arent terrible but she was in dire help of a professional massage person.

So then I remembered when Brian and I had gone to this one chinese clinic to get acupuncture and massage therapy- part of which was this cupping thing which does the opposite of massage. It instead of pressing the muscle against the body, it pulls the muscle away from the bone to allow for de-tensioning and better blood flow and all. So yeah, I remembered this and suggested to Jacky that she do that- since i know for Brian and I was super helpful and we felt amazing afterwards

Today, I was talking to Jacky on skype- since she is taking a couple days annual leave to rest- and she told me she had just gotten back from the clinic and that they told her she must have a lot of stress. Anyways... they did acupuncture + elec vibe massage + hot massage + cupping, all for the whopping total of 8,000 won, which comes to being less than $7.00. And it took about an hour she said. Apparently there are a lotta places around here that do that kinda stuff. Now for some reason i was under the impression that getting stuff like that was expensive (dont ask why- cuz i dunno) but i guess its not. So was thinking that I will probably ask Jacky if she could find a clinic either close to my house or to the school where I could go get massage. I dont need acupuncutre or anything- though once in a while might be nice. But i have just been dying to get a good massage. Especially cuz im alwyas the one giving massages but always have a hard time finding people who can acutally massage. So that will be the next mission. But since Jacky I guess has a bunch of stress i think i might just wait a bit to ask her to find that out for me. Though it will probably will not take her that long to find one- as she said there are many.
