Hoping to work out a few pre-race kinks (and nerves),
we booked the Deep Blue Healing massage the day before
running San Diego’s marathon. Stansbury’s bodywork
was basic- no fancy Thai moves, no exotic hot stones,
no karate chops. But in this instance, the simplest
techniques were definitely the most rewarding. Her gentle
but powerful turned our hamstrings to perfect pitch
without any pain at all- rare for deep tissue massages,
which usually leave us feeling battered and bruised.
The real mark of her work? We felt so limber that we
were able to run the grueling 26-mile course an hour
faster than our last one. Fifty minutes, $105.
