The Winding Path

Kevin Kern has become a universal name for beautiful, relaxing music. This intimate, piano-led path through nature creates a resonance of tranquility and peace for pure listening pleasure. “The Winding Path” is ideal for masage, meditation and relieving stress. Kern is joined on several tracks by top new age duo, 2002.
Customer Review: Exceptional music for massage
I’m learning massage and have found this CD to be particularly helpful as a way to pace my sessions and relax into a very giving attitude. The pieces seem perfectly timed to allow an amazing ebb and flow. I have a few other CDs that are pleasant, but this one truly makes me feel transcendent.
Customer Review: An Easy Winner
A strange thing happens every time I listen to this album – I hear the first few cuts and then there’s a blur and the last cut is going by. This isn’t meant as a negative, but it does point out that this is one of those albums that quickly blends into whatever I’m doing and becomes part of the environment.

Much to my surprise, Kevin Kern is a native Detroiter (there’s not a lot of New Age music getting made up here). His training is classical, with a lot of mentoring by George Shearing. The combination has made him a master of improvisation, with a knack for taking the melodic path. Winding Path is his sixth album, done in 2003. It spent some 15 weeks on the charts, which is a pretty solid accomplishment.

Living Arts Massage Practice for Pregnancy

An obliging father-to-be performs head-to-toe (actually, toe-to-head) massage on his appreciative partner in this too-good-to-be-true instructional video. Still, it’s worth a shot at guilting your partner into one of the three massages described in detail by massage therapist Michelle Kluck as the couple demonstrates each stroke. Much of the 25-minute video is dedicated to the feet and legs, as Kluck emphasizes the therapeutic benefit on the onslaught of symptoms a pregnant woman deals with in these body parts–leg cramps, edema, varicose veins, stretch marks, and such. Time is also spent on a back and shoulder massage and one for the head and neck. Kluck outlines the special conditions of a prenatal rubdown (no lying on the back or stomach, etc.) and on- screen graphics pop up to show reflexology points and a cutaway view of the pregnant body. Kluck asserts that massage can prevent many prenatal ailments without backing up her claim, but you don’t have to tell your partner that part. –Kimberly Heinrichs
Customer Review: Fabulous Pregnancy Massage!
I loved this video. My husband found it very easy to follow and he gave me a wonderful massage on my legs & feet, back & shoulders and my head & neck. The music was very relaxing and the techniques were clear and easy to understand. I felt great and he was so happy to bring me some relief during my last few months of pregnancy. I highly recommend this video to all pregnant couples! Click here for more info on this massage product
