A Letter From
India 12 March 2001
Dear Body Cushion folks,
I’m writing an overdue note to you to
thank you for my Body Cushion. I am a massage therapist living in a
small meditation and satsang community in Northern India. I am
American by birth and visit my family every year in California. I
have been living and doing massage in India for the past 5 years,
and was finding that without a proper table I was getting fatigued
and feeling strains from time to time in various parts of my body. I
only do 7 or 8 massages a week, but the strain was adding up and I
found myself wishing for a new kind of setup which was portable
enough to take to people’s houses or store in my closet between
sessions in my own house. While I was visiting L.A. last summer I
saw one of your ads in a massage and bodywork magazine and
immediately thought the Body Cushion was the answer to my prayers. I
went to a Bodyworks Emporium and laid down on one, and that was it.
I knew it was what I needed.
Since returning to India last August I
have used the Cushion for every massage. People here were extremely
impressed by how comfortable it is to lie on, let alone get massaged
on. I saw after giving a few massages on the Cushion that my
own back stayed in good shape, and I generally did not have to work
as hard to achieve good results. The Cushion relaxed the person for
me! I get great credit and I have to pass much of it on to you. I
also especially appreciated the flexibility of the face cradle (much
better than the fixed ones on a regular table), and the space at the
top of the Cushion which, when a person lies on their back, I can
work under their upper spine and neck, like magic. Everything seems
to be where I need it to be, it is so well-designed. I know my
clients are getting better results than ever thanks to the Cushion.
I cannot imagine going back to working on a flat surface after this
experience, and can’t imagine why every massage therapist doesn’t
have one of these remarkable items.
Yours truly,
Ken Gould
