As a massage therapist, we know what we want in another MT: serious quality work with someone who's truly passionate about the work--which comes through during a treatment.
Ruth is this high caliber kind of MT. With her, it's NEVER a passionless "just getting through the session" because it's your job, like you can feel in the touch of some others. Ruth puts her heart into each therapy session I've ever experienced--and you leave feeling cared about, tended to, truly relaxed and rejuvenated.
(Personally, I find this EXTREMELY important, as I'm highly sensitive to others' energies, and it deadens the enjoyment if I can feel someone's just not into their work.)
But, on top of Ruth's beautiful energy output is her truly skilled ability to work on clients' issues: Not only are her listening skills top-notch (again, a hard-to-find quality in a therapist), but her application is quite honed. Just tell her where it hurts and she'll get to work with gentle, yet effective techniques to get those kinks out.
In my near decade of practicing massage therapy, I have tried out dozens of MTs. Ruth Blomster is one of a single-digit group that I can (and do) easily put my name behind as a stellar example of the profound work an MT can do in supporting clients committed to maintaining their health in a natural way; I refer people to her often, as she's a genuine credit to our industry.
Go Ruth!
Pros: Loving, wonderful energy--and good, strong hands!
Cons: She's very busy saving the world--hard to book! ;)
