3. Your Healthy Journey

Peggy Shaw, licensed massage therapist, developed an interest in holistic health, the concept that all aspects of people’s needs, psychological, physical and social, should be taken into account and seen as a whole. She has studied yoga, Thai yoga massage, shiatsu (finger and thumb pressure) and other natural techniques for improving health. Combining those practices and five-element nutrition, she has developed Your Healthy Journey, a solution for people who want to prevent disease, heal from disease, reduce stress and learn more about healthy living.  You are invited to join us on Thursday, July 25 at 7:00pm to hear more about these ancient and alternative ways to gain healing and vitality.
