    Today I got deep tissue massage from Keanen. From the start at from desk to the massage room was a great experience. The bed was already heated which relaxed my body. Keanen put a very soft Sufi meditation music and told me to meditate while he was preparing hot stones. Once he started from my forehead, I just knew he’s a healer. I didn’t expect his hands are so strong for his body size. I can 100% tell he’s very well trained and applying all his skills and knowledge that he had learned in his school. That’s the beauty of him compared to others. I will definitely go to him now onwards. My children said, mom, some small people are stronger than big people. I agree. I needed deep tissue massage and Keanen did for one whole hour without letting me wait in the room. It’s so inspiring to learn young people like him is interested in yoga and. meditation. We need more younger generations to learn meditation and yoga for the health of mind and body. Thank you.
