~Happy Valentine's Day~
Ifeel like I'm still on vacation. What a fast month January was! Here's some awesome news: I have 48 more birthdays to celebrate before I surpass my granny! Woo-hoo!
Want that "lovin" feelin'? Are you addicted to love? I know exactly what you mean. The overload of endorphins in a body is just "trippy" --come in for a relaxation massage, a full body hot stone massage or an aromatherapy massage or any combination thereof....I can guarantee you will be feeling "trippy" too!
 Ok... as promised, I brought my lap top to the Superbowl party so I could get my newsletter completed and launched today for all you wonderful people. The reason it did not launch on the first of the month is because I worked all day, and it was not nearly ready to send. I didn't get it done on Ground Hog's day because it was such a sunny beautiful day and I took full advantage of it by spreading 27c ft. of compost on my 20X20 garden plot in preparation for spring planting in a few more months. (see picture!) Right now it is 1:30pm and I have plenty of time to get this done before kickoff! (It might be a long process, 'cause the snacks and food here at this party are awesome....a huge spread and I may be intermittently working on this newsletter, and it may very well take me the whole afternoon to get it finished!) -you know how it goes....food, drink, snacks, rest some, food, drink, snacks, rest again.....  It is officially tax season....as if we didn't know or were aware of this...and I have come across several good articles regarding stress relief/management for EVERYONE that pertains to our stress levels in relation to coping with tax season. You will be pleased to know that my massages for stress relief are 100% copasetic to help you eliminate the tension in your body from being IRS compliant! I can tame those dragons for you!
Here's a link to an article that was sent to me that I decided was a must read for healthy skin. Anyone interested in how to determine if a skin care product is really good for your skin or not should find this very interesting.

Announcements:
- I always have Massage Gift Certificates available for for any occasion. Even for No Good Reason and for Just Because there are gift certificates here for you.
- My second treatment room at the clinic is now being used as my Boutique. (Needleworks by Beau) All the nice hand knitting and crocheting I do is on display and for sale. (Since I am having such a difficult time finding another bodywork practitioner to rent this space, I figured I could put it to good use until then) Click on the link to go to my webpage with pictures of items available so far. I'm not yet finished putting items in there and not yet finished with putting everything on the Needleworks by Beau page on the website either... Lots more is coming so please keep checking back.
- The 2nd Monday of the month Essential Oils classes are being suspended due to Re~a coffee pub has closed it's doors for business. I am looking for another space to hold these "health and wellness with essential oils" classes.
"Whoever has no time for their health,
will have to find time for their sickness."

Aromatherapy News:
"Magic Oils for Pain"
These are the four oils I used to relieve pain when I fractured my spine in June 2011. I used them every 15 minutes when necessary, but a minimum of 4-6 times daily. They are healing as well as wonderful for pain relief!
BELIEVE is a blend that is primarily frankincense and balsam fir. I usually used it first because it is the lowest molecular weight, allowing it to be absorbed more rapidly. Believe helps to release pain at all levels - physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.
COPAIBA is a single oil from the Amazon. The South American natives traditionally used copaiba for any type of pain, for digestive issues, and for stomach cancer. Marc Schreuder, Young Living's "Mad Scientist" who works closely with Gary Young to formulate our products says, "Copaiba amplifies the effects of all the oils used with it!" Isn't that exciting? Not only is copaiba great for pain on its own, but it AMPLIFIES the pain-relieving and healing effects of the other oils!
PANAWAY is a blend that was created many years ago by Gary Young when he had to have surgery on his ankle. He used no anesthetic.
DEEP RELIEF is a roll-on that contains copaiba, helichrysum, Idaho balsam fir, wintergreen, palo santo, lemon, peppermint, clove, and vetiver. Each of these oils is excellent for pain, inflammation, and tissue regeneration. Together, they produce a powerful blend.
Essential oils may help you with a wide range of concerns regarding your health and is not limited to massage therapy treatments. (although I personally think receiving essential oil treatments via a massage is the most pleasurable venue of health care.) Essential oils provide everyday health and well-being for the whole family!
I alwa ys have Raindrop Treatments available. These are good for more than just keeping the cold and flu germs in check. The Original Raindrop Treatment is excellent for exhaustion, fatigue, feeling blue or a little run-down and have been proven to be an excellent pre-surgery treatment. Original Raindrop Treatment the day before a scheduled surgery will help you with the post surgery recovery, you will not be nausious from the anesthesia (you'll have actually taken less of this than expected) your pain after the surgery will be less, your healing time will be faster. So, by all means, do treat yourself to feeling great!
Boost your immune system this month! Book an appointment to come get an Original Raindrop Technique Aromatherapy session or a regular massage with a Raindrop Add-on! For colds and flu try an Original Raindrop Technique aromatherapy massage. Schedule your appt. to come in for an Original Raindrop Technique massage or just ask to have your already scheduled massage up-graded with an O.RT add-on! I promise....you will be feeling 100% better by the morning after this O.RT and on your way to being completely well. 
I do wish to post a reminder here that if you are experiencing any cold or flu like symptoms a few days before or the day of your scheduled massage, please call me and let me know. I would very much prefer that you stay home and get well rather than exposing healthy people to the virus.... Unless, of course you wish to request a Raindrop Treatment (RT) add -on to your massage! This is an excellent way to naturally boost your immune system for prevention of colds and flu. Raindrop Treatments have also been advantageous in helping to reduce symptoms and duration of colds and flu after you already catch them. (personal experience: the next day, you are all well! --no more suffering for weeks and weeks!)
NOTE: If you have a fever, it is recommended that you reschedule your massage appt. Wait for your fever to pass and then come in for your Raindrop Treatment.
I will also be diffusing air purifying essential oils in the massage room for all of our protection.
I have available, the Young Living explanation of Raindrop Therapy at websites: WhiteDragonTherapies and EssentialEverydayOils . If you are interested, I have a Raindrop Therapy Disclosure Packet available for your ease of reference that lists all the essential oils used, why they are used and what other additional health benefits they may provide along with any contraindications for these oils. My goal is helping you get healthy and stay healthy!

P.S. This newsletter is a monthly promotional featuring the current special I might be offering, letting you know about any new services or products being offered, and making announcements of anything new at White Dragon Therapies. I also like to feature news about current health issues. This E- newsletter is usually sent out on the first of each month. Although, there has been the rare occasion where I send out a special second newsletter during the month. This newsletter is not the same as my more often "e-blast" where additional massage discounts and specials of the week or other announcements are featured.
