HIGHLAND PARK FRIENDSHIP CLUB • November 20, 2010 at Cretin Durham Hall Gym • The mission of the Highland Friendship Club is to serve individuals with disabilities from teens through adulthood by providing a range of opportunities to develop lifelong skills, friendships and connections within their community. http://www.highlandfriendshipclub.org/ • Those who gave chair massages: • Rebecca Louden • Melissa Linser • Fran Churchill • Sylvia Isaacson • Shelli Clary
MELISSA LINSER GIGGLES are a great way to know that someone is enjoying their massage.
SYLVIA ISAACSON Jacob had a wonderful smile and a wonderful spirit. When I felt his body relax it was amazing. It was one of the greatest things I have ever done.
This group requires an immense amount of spontaneity and creativity in order to give a good massage. FRAN CHURCHILL
MELISSA LINSER I feel blessed and thankful to be part of their lives in a positive way through touch.
REBECCA LOUDEN My client was very happy and relaxed and wanted another massage. This was a very educational and beneficial experience.
I found that “touch” can be very healing for both the therapist as well as the client. Giving your first massage to the general public can be very intimidating, but is such a self-realizing experience that is embedded in your memory forever. SHELLI CLARY

JENNIFER UPTON People may not remember what you do or what you say, but they remember how you make them feel. - Maya Angelou
