Bamboo's Natural Beauty

Did you know that bamboo is naturally resiliant? It can survive hot summers and cold winters. It's strength is amazing--bamboo can be used in flooring, furniture and even in house structures. Lush and green, it's a favorite plant in gardens, massage rooms and in office buildings.

Medicinally, bamboo shoots and leaves can help reduce phlegm and increase lacation. Many Asian recipes call for bamboo shoots, as it's flavor is sweet and slightly sugary.

Bamboo is now being used to deeply yet softly work out knots and kinks in massage clients. Nathalie Cecilia, founder of Bamboo-Fusion massage, teaches therapists thoughout the U.S. to luxuriously use her delightful technique of warm bamboo on their clients.

High end spas call upon Nathalie to train their massage therapists in this technique. Currently, Nathalie primarily teaches at her office in Sarasota, FL. Other instructors, trained by the founder herself, will soon be teaching this modality in Seattle, Hartford and in Cincinnati.

For more information, you can look at Nathalie's site, www.Bamboo-Fusion.com or www.ashiatsuworkshops.com/bamboo .
