Book Excerpts


	"I started to read Gentle Hands yesterday and I love it. It's so easy to read; I love the layout and the anecdotes especially. It has already inspired me to resume massaging Madeline. She used to like it as a tiny baby, but unfortunately I've been overlooking it lately. Thanks to Gentle Hands, we are back on track." Sarah Brown, Mother
