Your father wants a massage for the shoulders you’re always leaning on! Father’s day is fast approaching, and while they may never admit it, unless they’re Hank Hill, they DO NOT want another hammer or a home depot gift card.
Forget the breakfast in bed and the Starbucks gift too since coffee increases feelings of irritability. Massage is the solution for the gift that always fits and is never returned! Relaxation, Peace of Mind, Reduction from Muscle Tension reigns supreme for a memorable and greatly appreciated gift.
Men have evolved considerably, exploring and embracing a GQ influenced culture of fine dining, better grooming practices, crafting martinis at home and collecting cigars. The father figure in your life more than likely wears themselves out at work and the last thing they want on Fathers day is a gift that says: more work.
Anyone saddled with the role of a provider will always be wiped out. Headaches induced by stress, anxiety from a fast paced or harsh work environment, not to mention the physical toll on backs, knees and feet are almost guaranteed. All the while, Dad is more than likely bottling it up, making matters worse! Even a desk job can have adverse effects on the body. A series of stretches such as the crescent moon can be done standing or sitting by simply raising your arms over your head, hands together, and slightly bending to stretch your back and sides. This improves circulation and keeps the body loose and limber! Teach the father in your life to take care of themselves for a change!
The best gift you can give is always wellness. “Occupational stress takes a toll on the body and massage can alleviate chronic muscle tension.” Robin Ehrlich, Eastside Massage Therapy Directoradvises. Consider a massage! Touch is our first love language and gifting a healing touch can be all the better! See our previous articles to find out what massage can do for Dad and how he can keep that relief and good feeling going between sessions. Eastside Massage will be offering Gift Cards valued at $90 for one hour sessions starting 6/7. Just in time for Fathers day!
Show your love, care and respect and forget the tie for Dad. Every Body kneads to be kneaded, especially your Father. Don’t forget Father’s can include not only your husband but uncle or grandfather, brother or other! Thoughtfulness is contagious and we want to spread health enhancement, deep relaxation and a restored and refreshed Father because they deserve the best!
Gift Cards can be purchased online at www.eastsidemassage.com or in store.
