'Phyllis'ophically Speaking:
A Message from Phyllis Schwartz,
Keep In Touch Founder
Happy holidays, friends of Keep In Touch.
It’s hard to imagine that we are already welcoming the
winter holiday season, with a new year not far behind. As
you all know, this is a joyous time of year … as well as a
very hectic one.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for your
patronage this past year. We at Keep In Touch value each and
every one of you, our valued customers. And we hope that you
will continue to think of us for your personal massage
therapy needs, as well as gift giving.
Truly, massage is one of the most special gifts you can
share with a friend or loved one. And when you give someone
a Keep In Touch reloadable gift card, you are giving me the
greatest compliment that I could ever hope for. You are
inviting someone important in your life to experience Keep
In Touch for themselves. And when your friends or loved ones
visit a Keep In Touch Massage Center, I promise you that we
will ensure that their time with us is relaxing and
memorable. No doubt, they will be greatly appreciative of
your generosity after enjoying a session with us.
While it’s natural to focus on others at this time of
year, my best advice is to not forget yourself in the
equation. With so much on everyone’s plate, there is no
better time to slow down and relax, if only for an hour.
You’ll be amazed by the difference in your increased energy
level and holiday spirit.
Wishing you and yours all the best this season!

Phyllis Schwartz
Founder and President
Keep In Touch

In recent years, Hot Stone Massage therapy has
gained popularity with massage centers and customers
alike. But many customers see the promotions and
wonder: “What is Hot Stone and why would I want to
experience it?” “The simple answer,” according to
Phyllis Schwartz, founder of Keep In Touch Massage
Centers, “is that it is a wonderfully therapeutic
and healing treatment that gets to the source of
pain, working to draw it out with stimulating heat.”
Hot Stone Massage Therapy involves smooth,
water-heated basalt stones. Originally a technique
used in ancient cultures, the hot thermal therapy
affects circulation and provides a method to reach
deep tissue for healing. The technique is especially
helpful for those who suffer acute and chronic
injuries or conditions, such as muscle spasms and
osteoarthritis.
“Since the hot stones are used to massage the body,”
said Schwartz, “you receive the same rewards as a
Swedish massage, deep tissue massage and trigger
point work.” The added benefit is heat that
penetrates the muscle and tendon, providing deeper
work with less pressure. The smooth texture of the
rock and the heat provides dramatic stress-reducing
results, as well. Many customers often relax into a
deep meditative state early in their sessions.
The stones are stored in the hot water of an
electric roaster in the therapy room. You will hear
the subtle, natural clinking of the stones as they
are handled and during the session. Before your
session even begins, stones are placed under your
back along your spine and small stones are placed
between your toes and in the palms of your hands.
You will feel the heat immediately and start to
relax your muscles. The massage session is 1½ hours,
due to the extra time needed for working with the
stones.
A new spin on relaxation
At Keep In Touch, we have added a slight enhancement
to this ancient form of treatment to further enhance
your experience. We combine a hands-on massage with
our hot stones. Using Swedish massage principles,
our therapists incorporate the hot stones into your
session. In many ways, the hot stones become an
extension of your therapist’s hands.
Note: Hot Stone massage cannot be given to people
with conditions, such as diabetes complicated by
neuropathy or pregnancy. Be sure to check the Keep
In Touch location closest to you for prices and
availability. Remember, Hot Stone Massage makes a
great gift for the holidays!

Toys for Tots
Keep In Touch Massage is collecting toys for our
local U. S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots. Collection
will run through Dec. 23. The mission of the Toys
for Tots program is to collect new, unwrapped toys
and distribute those toys at Christmas to needy
children in our community.
As presented during the KARE 11 Toys for Tots
segment on December 9th, in appreciation of the
dedicated efforts and giving spirit of Toys for Tots
workers and volunteers, Keep In Touch Massage
Centers is donating 500 “Complimentary ½ Hour
Massage” coupons for distribution to those workers
and volunteers. It’s our way of saying thank you to
those who make a difference in making the Holiday
Season brighter for the many who receive the benefit
of their efforts.
We will also donate $5 to Toys for Tots from every
coupon brought in during our Toys for Tots promotion
(see coupon offer below).

Holiday
shopping can be a challenge. Sometimes, we have difficult-to-shop-for people on
our gift lists, and -- more often -- our shopping time seems to run short. You
can solve both problems by buying reloadable Keep In Touch gift cards. You can
load them with any amount you would like, and the gift cards can be used for any
product or service that all our Keep In Touch Massages Centers offer.
The best part is that our Keep In Touch gift
card is reloadable and reusable!
www.keepintouchmassage.net. Valid at
participating locations only.
We have a variety of holiday gift packages available for any budget.
Stop by or call one of our stores today to find out more.
