Thanks for starting this group. I have worked in publishing and editing (mainly scientific and medical, both inhouse and freelance) since just after graduation (1981). You can read more about my current services here: Writing on Water.
Oh we whose stock in trade are words, let us come together in one body of text!
A site for authors and editors and anyone who love to write! Join us - what power we have when we put pen to paper (or keyboard to web page!)
My 'art' is more often poetry. This post on my aquatic bodywork blog shows a photograph turned into an art image by me and a poem I wrote after giving a session: AquaPoetry. On the opening page of the same weblog, you'll see three charcoal images I…
Glad to see this group here. Is the logo image by Ray? Would be good to acknowledge the source. One thing all artists need is some heart-felt recognition :)
Hi Carol. Here is a link to some work being done out of Poland and Hungary with orphans by an aquatic colleague of mine Basia Szapak-Borst. I'm not sure of any specifics re abuse but I thought you might find it interesting and perhaps like to contac…

I love the image you have found to illustrate this Group! I thought I'd briefly introduce myself. I'm trained in massage and aquatic bodywork. I have always felt that if I added another modality to my practice this one would be valuable. When someon…
Good Morning Sulis, Thank you it is great to be back on the site. I changed PC's and lost all of my site info and favorites so starting over is somewhat stressful. Being in the water for a massage for me would be like being in the wonderful womb all over again.
Hi Sulis, Great to meet you. I have started to read through the content on the sites that you have posted. Really wonderful work. Have you read Theodore Schwenk's book : Sensitive Chaos? Highly recommended - also the work of Viktor Schauberger. Herewith a pic of Bruvel - Reminds me of the tour of the minnow.
Best wishes

Dear Sulis - Thanks so much for your kind note. I used to work at The Crossings Wellness Spa in Austin and several of the therapists there offer Watsu. Some day would love to go to Germany and study waterdance. Wishing you the very best in your ongoing success in your worthy and valuable contributions to the world through your healing art. Warmly, Ariana
Hi Sara,
NOt being a LMT, what got you interested in Watsu? How did you get into it? Did you go to Harbin Springs? I do understand about Cal. and it's "regulations" or lack there-of. You sound so interesting to me! I LOVE anyone who has been in the water for training!!! smile, smile.
Hi Sara,

HELLO SARA!!! Welcome to my site on Aquatic Therapy!! Yes, Watsu is apart of aquatic therapy, yet only a piece of the work! There is soooooo much more to offer clients. Are you a practicing LMT??
