TLC Graduate: Sherri What are the best reasons to become a massage therapist? "I think that massage therapy is a deeper way of connecting. By getting into this field you are contacting people through touch, which is very powerful, and really makes a difference in people's lives. It also makes you more in tune with your own body, yourself and your environment, so it increases your awareness of your whole world. " Why did you become a massage therapist? "I think it is a creative outlet for self-expression without words. I link it to a musician with his or her instrument, except our instrument is the human body. I always thought it was beautiful art in itself." Tell me why you chose Lauterstein-Conway? "I am glad I followed my intuition, because it seems like when you do that, everything seems to fall into place. It was interesting. There are certain people you connect with better than others, but there's always something there for everybody." What would you say to someone considering going to school at Lauterstein-Conway? "I would say, not to sound like Socrates... but "know thyself." If your intuition is telling you to go, then follow it. A big part of this profession is following your intuition and listening to it. Another thing I would say is there is so much to be gained on many levels. It is very rewarding. It is a profession where you have to check in with your body, mind and spirit. That is why it is good to be intuitive, because by caring for yourself, what you have to offer others will overflow with abundance."
