Client Testimonial – Pilates

Client Testimonial – Pilates

I received this email from a Pilates client recently…

Anne,

I’m traveling this week. You’d be happy to know I took a hike this morning, and also did some Pilates in the hotel room! Thought of you today – and I’m so thankful you are in my life keeping me strong and healthy every week. I’m grateful that you have encouraged me to maintain my strength and conditioning – pushups! planks! rollovers! etc! You have found your calling and we all love you so much!

Foot Soak At Feel Good Feet

event_space

Come relax with us!

Next month Sellwood foot spa Feel Good Feet hosts Anne McCranie, owner of Fluid Movement + Massage for a night of TLC for your feet.

Indulge in a foot soak, and learn a simple home care routine for happy, pain free feet.

Along with the soaking tubs Feel Good Feet offers ionized water, intuitive readings and reflexology treatments. Reflexology is based on the idea that points on the soles of the feet correspond with specific organs. Stimulating these points by applying fingertip pressure supports the entire body and provides deep relaxation.

What are your plans today? I have friends coming over to BBQ. One of my buddies is following a paleo diet so I made sugar free ketchup for her burger. Also on the menu Laura’s Sour Slaw, vegan and paleo friendly.

Here is her recipe…

Sour Slaw

Ingredients:

  • 1 head green cabbage, 1/4 slices
  • 4 sprigs fresh oregano (or 2 tsp dried)
  • 1 Jalapeno, finely chopped
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Put all ingredients in a pot and cook over medium-low heat, no lid, for 20 minutes. Serve warm or cold. Delicious by itself or on a burger or baked potato.

Happy 4th of July!
