Another believer

The Chief had his first massage over the weekend (he'd been complaining of neck problems so long that he actually acquiesced when I urged him to try a massage). The therapist I recommended has worked with an orthopedist for years, which I think reassured him that this wasn't some New Age, hippie-dippie pseudo-therapy. He now understands why I try to get a massage whenever I can (which unfortunately is rarely more than a few times a year) - he's still marveling at how much looser his neck feels, and has already booked his next massage. Yes, I'd say he's been convinced.
