Monday morning is sometimes slow to get re-oriented with the pending “To Do” list along with attending to the email inbox. Thus, I was a slow start to the day (with
coffee in hand) yesterday as I dug into the inbox to sort through the priorities for the coming week. I could use a mobile chair massage, I suppose!
I was pleasantly surprised to get a reminder TWENTY years ago today, I graduated from The Atlanta School of Massage! Following that, Corporate Massage Kneads is based in Maryland and was opened in October 2006. My mood picked up as I remembered that today so vividly as it was full of celebration as I completed 720 hours of instruction, many student clinics, and tests!
Just for a kick, I looked back at what was significant on this date to find some interesting facts!

Looking back at those little facts from 2001 makes me realize how long ago twenty years really were and how far my career as a massage therapist has come in the world of wellness while offering on-site chair massages.
The years have rolled by and I am filled with gratitude to have chosen this massage as my life’s work. My company, Corporate Massage Kneads, continues to push me to exceed clients’ expectations of me and others that work with me.
