Latest update: I am not doing massages, yet. After breaking my distal radius, my wrist is still not healed completely. The good news is that I am learning a modification technique that will allow me to start doing massage again without the need to put as much pressure on my wrist/hand. So, please bear with me. I will be back to doing massage before long.

Latest update: I am still not able to give massage at this time.
