Getting a massage is a big step to take care of yourself, but you can also do at home yourself such as eating better. However, it's not that simple and easy. Try a little change one at a time. Read more.

Almost all of my clients mention that they want to try something to feel better. Most common ones are to do more exercise and eat better. Everybody knows that it is easier to be said than done.
