a new delight

Many of us are familiar with the torturous thing known in gym circles as the "foam roller". It is supposed to be wonderful for massaging out knots in muscles - it is excruciatingly painful to actually do.




Today I experienced a thai massage which is just a human foam roller. Since you don't have any control, you succumb to the pain and feel remarkably energized at the end of 90 torturous minutes.



Imagine lying on a mattress on the floor and having yourself kneaded and squeezed and bent into postures by a incredibly strong and compact woman. There you have it. Heaven (via hell).
