Does it have anything to do with the profession ofmassage and bodywork therapy? Or, like separation of churchand state, are we obligated to keep spirituality out of our work?And what exactly do we mean by spirituality? Do we mean God?Religion? New Age philosophy? What about energy work— is itpossible to cut spirituality out of that? Or disallow energy workduring massage? Is the concept of presence during hands-on workrelated to spirituality? And if the body holds and reflects mind andemotion, would that constitute spirituality or something else?Of course it’s ancient history now, but at one point in time massagewas called a “rub-down” and you went to the YMCA to get one;bodywork meant repairing the frame of a car. Or you were richand famous and had your own “masseuse.” That was it outside ofmassage parlors, where you did not go to get a massage. Then theera of the 60’s and the 70’s championed mind-altering drugs andfree love and the search for enlightenment. This passionate searchto experience more, both sensually and spiritually, created anhistorical culture clash with government, religion, and tradition.From this chaotic soup greats like Ida Rolf, Milton Trager, MosheFeldenkrais, John Barnes, and others, supported by places likeEsalen and later, New York University and the New York OpenCenter, were revamping the “rub-down” into something new. Atthe same time Ram-Das, Fritz Perls, and others led a spiritual,psychological and metaphysical movement that contributed to amigration away from the traditional religious structure of America.Hippies, and all those tag-along sort-of hippies, hungry forawakening on every level, were the womb from which the massageand bodywork profession as we know it today was birthed.Cover photo location:Wake Forest Yoga103 S White StreetWake Forest NC 27587wakeforestyoga.com919-623-5410Massage and bodywork brought self-discovery, self-understanding,and self-awareness to the individual. These were young people,and the healing they sought was not of the body, but of the psycheand of the spirit. It was only later as the profession developed, asthese young people who had found themselves through massageand bodywork became massage and bodywork therapists andworked with others, that the full physical health benefits began tobe publically acknowledged.Who among us has not undertaken the journey of self-discoverythat comes with massage and bodywork? And what journey ofself-discovery is not of the spirit? We need to be careful that inour desire for acceptance into the medical community we do notdeny our heritage, and even more so, that we do not deny our owndirect experience of what massage and bodywork have to offer.Let’s share our thoughts on this important topic in the forumgroup, Spirituality at www.massageprofessionals.com. I’ll see youthere—Sincerely,Nancy Toner Weinberger, PublisherReceive monthly reminder E-Mails aboutupcoming classes advertised in the PERG!Send an email to Perg.CEMassage@gmail.comwith your name, email address, and the stateyou are licensed in and we will keep you upto date with less than 12 E-Mails a year!
