Good news is: I just bought a new massage table. The last one lasted almost 7 years, and endured at least 3000 massages.... So, the new table is 2 inches wider, is a bit thicker, can hold up to 1500 pounds of total weight (instead of 500 on previous tables) and has an arm rest in front of the head piece. All clients should feel a bit more spoiled now.....
Even better news: I renewed my studio lease for another 2 years last week. so for all those people who only stick their heads onto my website once a year, now you can see that I am still in business, and intend to stay a bit longer. |

Over the past two months, I have received a dozen inquiries that challenge the legitimacy of my business services. I am getting tired of answering that question, because it is already answered on the website. If you want to know what the VA laws are concerning operating a massage business, go on the internet and search for "VA laws, massage " , and also look under "VA prostitution laws". or go to your local government office and request a printed copy of local laws and regulation and restrictions. |

In the past two weeks, I have received 6 inquiries for massage from other countries and continents. My front page clearly states that I am in Virginia, USA. Not Australia, Africa , India or England. I also do not have any contacts or recommendations for people with similar businesses as mine. Please read the website from the first paragraph on the first page.
Thank you!~

If you have met me and been in my studio or paid attention to the signature lines in my emails, you might have noticed I do leather work as my second passion.
I want to show off some of my recent pieces. If you are interested in any of these pieces, please contact me via email., with "leather work" in the subject line.
1. Leather spike collar I made this collar for a lady who loves riding motorcycles on weekends. I started with a piece of saddle strap, 5/8" wide, added nickel spots and spikes alternately. |

Gem the Traveler: Posted on Monday, May 16, 2011 3:40 PM
If you have been trying to email or call me and did not get an answer right away, it was because I have been traveling between Richmond and the southern parts of Arkansas on a personal family matter for the past few weeks. 1100 miles one way is no small undertaking. And to do it through tornadoes and flood twice, -- I am glad I am back in Virginia.
The first trip was over Easter Holiday, and the second day of my trip home was through the tornadoes in Tennessee and SW Va. Then, a week later, I received news that a loved one had passed away, and I had to make the trip again for the funeral. |

I have been away from the studio the past few days due to spring allergies/sinus problems. I got all through the mess over the weekend and am back in the office this week. If you have been trying to reach me in the past week and have not received a reply from me yet, I am working on answering All inquiries from the last week. All appointment requests will be set up in the order they were received (email or web form time-stamp). I thank you for your understanding.
I look forward to helping you relax soon. |

Most clients spend the majority of time on their stomachs on my massage table. With some people requesting only minimum draping or none at all, I ocasionally come across a client who may not be aware that he/she did not wipe properly during their last bathroom break. It can be frustrating to see or smell or deal with "dingleberries". Please make sure your body parts are clean before you get on my table. Don't make me embarrass you and bring you a washcloth.... I have clean washcloths and hot water in the bathroom, please use them. |

I permit clients to touch me during the session. Usually pertains to contact with arms, legs, back, etc. That is NOT an invitation to go on a 'treasure hunt'. My level of close contact stops at my panty line. Please respect my limits and borders, as I respect yours. Thank you.

I was recently invited to try a new line of products made withwhipped shea butter,and several versions with aromatherapy oils added. I have been testing the shea butter products for about 2 weeks now and cannot rave enough about them. I bought one 8-oz tub unscented for those who don't like fragrance, and one with green tea.
I have been using the green tea for myself, I love the light fragrance, and the product works well on winter dry skin. Great improvements after only a week.
The unscented shea butter I have at the studio, and again, good news to report. |
