Man(n) lernt nie aus

Das Interesse am Tapen hat mich schon über Jahre begleitet.

Irgendwann habe ich mir dann ein Buch gekauft und bin drauf gekommen, dass mir sämtliche Grundbegriffe der Anatomie und der Medizin fehlen.

Das war dann der Beginn meiner Massageausbildung und Beschäftigung mit dem menschlichen Körper.

Tapen ist eine fantastische Möglichkeit, den Körper bei der Heilung zu unterstützen. Sie ist kostengünstig, hält lange und gibt ein sicheres Gefühl.
