On Sunday, 30 August, you will have the chance to improve your life and benefit your mind. How? HandsatWork are holding their largest ever open day, offering a trial of many of their treatments and a chance to sample some healthier lifestyle foods. So if you fancy trying a very relaxing chair massage (I can highly recommend that!!) or other what is termed as alternative treatments, go along.

Are you skeptical about all this mumbo jumbo health kick ideals being offered here? Well you won’t be any bigger of a skeptic than I was. I went earlier this year, went with the wife who has an interest in this subject, I thought I’d keep her company and have a laugh and point at strange people. The odd thing is, I didn’t. As soon as I walked in the door, I felt some kind of weird sensation; I suppose you could call it a spiritual feeling. I am normally very tense, but was relaxed in almost an instant. So the silly side of my thoughts basically disappeared. As mentioned in previous articles, I tried a few of the treatments and have gone on to continue with two of them on a regular basis. My own surgeon saying I could take many years to recover from my medical complaint, yet after three months, I am seeing an improvement and feeling a lot less discomfort. So from being ready to have a giggle and a few cups of free tea, I got myself some really great help.

Don’t be worried about turning up alone. Everybody who works there are the most welcoming and friendly of people and put you at ease the moment they shake you hand. Once again I think this has something to do with that calming aura when you walk in the building. Below is an extract from their website.

“Health & Happiness Day is a fun day out for the whole family. With presentations on a healthy lifestyle, free workshops, demonstrations, healthy food, live music, dance, performances and much more! Come and meet the HandsatWork team, take part in free classes, try new massages, taste healthy snacks and free drinks. Date: Sunday, August 30th Time: 11.00 am – 17.00 pm Location: HandsatWork Centre, Laan van Meerdervoort 45, 2517 AD Den Haag Admission: free!”

So if you are feeling stiff or in pain or just feel your body and mind needs an MOT and some tender loving care to help it through the rigors of life. Do not miss this wonderful opportunity. You’ll regret it if you don’t go.
