psyconeuroimmunology. How the body and mind interact during massage. Does anyone have an thoughts,
information, or websites they could offer me?

Thanks so much Andrea
 
FASCINATING! :-D I'll be interested to see what sort of response you get. I'm interested in
that as well.

Ya know, the first direction I would go would be towards holistic massage. When I take a person
through guided imagery, (standard routine- at the beach, waves gently lapping at the shore, sun
shining on the back, especially warm where I place my hand, etc) the skin becomes quite reddened at
the area I place my hand. Something like that simply should not be able to happen! Sorry, I normally
could give you websites for something I say, but in this particular case, I'm at a loss. But I
swear, when I do it, it gives me the feeling that I am touching the person's soul or personal
essence. It is indeed a most humbling experience, and would be interested in knowing if others have
had similar experience.

Try the Touch Research Institute website http://www.miami.edu/touch-research/home.html or look for a
book by Dr. Tiffany Field called "Touch Therapy"
