With over a decade of trials and errors, working one-on-one behind closed doors being an actual self-made person. I have come to understand the deep complexities of human nature—from the light of love to the shadow sides of greed and fear.

 

I believe that true character is defined by what we do when no one is watching or behind the closed doors. Values like compassion, honesty, being trustworthy and loyalty are not just words; they are personal choices we make every day for our living.

​

I have clients from all over the places; East to West across Canada, returning frequency flyers from Europe, Asia, Middle East, Far East, etc. People usually booked before they fly to a meeting in downtown Ottawa.

​

I have heard all kinds of stories and clients' experiences with massage therapists. The stories sharing and returning from frequent flyers who got massages from therapist all over the world, let me know I am on the right path, being appreciated and value.

​​​

I have many clients who told me this.

​

" You are not selling shoes, bags, clothing, cheap toys or unqualified gadgets that you can store and stock up for months and years on a shelves. you are selling your time, labor, knowledge, know how for your kids' endeavors. you are not selling something on a shelves waiting to give discount.​​

​

So, don't sell yourself short for those who think what you bring to the table is expensive. It's not you who expensive. People always complain for what they not value nor can afford. What you bring to your table worth more than what you ask for, remember that "

​

Said, no one would ask physio, chiro, MDs or healthcare providers for a discount. Then why they asked someone like you who actually put their labors, sweats, aches and tears in their crafts to trade with someone else's sickness and pains, to keep them moving with well-being and longevity, so they can keep up with their loved ones?

 

​​​No one would ask a cashier at Walmart, Costco or any grocery stores for discount if the store do not put the sign for "on sale" right?

​

Why people think they could ask labor workers who have limited time, energy and resources each day to make a living for discount, thinking you are too expensive?

​

So many people are OK to pay high price tags to someone who just sit and talk on the chair for 15 min, telling them what "might be", what to do and don't.

​

But when It comes to a small business; the under dogs, who they judged by its cover, they think they have authority to ask for discount, special treat, extra this and that because they come here to buy you, give you money. Thinking it's OK to hi-jack someone else's time, labors, sweat, aches, pains and tears. Thinking it is an acceptable normal practice to abuse you; the seemingly an under dog to them. That's a very dehumanized acts. Very reptilian like, if you ask me.

​

Those people are not human, rude and disgusting. They are not someone you should keep in your circle. Do not waste your time and energy on narcissistic people. Let them go. ​​

 

Honesty, loyalty, trustworthy is a very expensive gift. Do not give it to cheap people who do not value your time, energy, knowledge, knowhow, sweats and tears. Love is not what you say, love is what you do and don't. What you seek is seeking you. As above, so below. As within, so without. Talking is cheap. Action louder than words. Energy never lie. Truth speaker has no friend. Remember that.

​

With nearly 14 years practicing Thai manual therapy, wanting to do better, be better than I was yesterday. I cannot really sell myself short upon someone perception, comparison, and expectation of me. I do not complete where I don't compare.
