Have I already said that Jason MacDonald at goodmassage.co.nz gives an awesome therapeutic massage? If I haven’t, let me just tell you that this guy has a gentle personality combined with a vice-like grip. Which equals massage heaven. I’m only a massage snob when it comes to money- you want to get what you pay for, and many massage sessions are overpriced.
So I was laying there on the table grateful for the excellent value and wondering how this unassuming practitioner developed such a consistent deep thumb pressure.
Jason casually asked me if I meditate.
“Every day, before each massage,” I said.
“I was in Wellington at a Buddhist Monastery, and I noticed that they had these cool chairs for meditation, so I made one at home,” he said.
I was starting to get a clear picture. Jason is hands-on even when he’s not in the studio.
I asked him to send me a pic of the Buddha Chair and volunteered myself as his first customer. You can see in the pic that he hinged the legs in. What a great prototype. That one’s mine, I hope.
Will keep you posted when Jason has more available for sale.
