Massothérapie, art, et civisme!

Massothérapie, art, et civisme!

Submitted by admin on

Lundi dernier, nous acueillions à bord de idAction Mobile pour la seconde fois Kevin Roy, massothérapeute, accompagné cette fois de Aurélie, une massothérapeute spécialisée en massage thai.
La soirée débute calmement: il pleut, les rues sont plus calmes... Nous constatons cependant plusieurs personnes dans la rue en train de...lire!! Et à plusieurs reprises, nous offrons des lunettes, ce qui déclenche systématiquement un "WAoW" aux personnes qui les chaussent!
 
Nous passons une grande partie de la soirée aux Projets Autochtones du Québec, ou nous rencontrons plus de 25 personnes, dont bon nombre reçoit un massage, en échange d'un acte créatif ou citoyen: Charlie chante, joue de la guitare, dessine des légendes. Mary dessine, Eva chante, Joel rédige des critiques de films, d'autres encore multiplie les actes citoyens en partageant leurs cultures ou en nous aidant à porter le matériel!

Eric quant à lui offre un paiement très particulier! Ramancheur (une forme d'ostéopathie traditionelle, ancestrale), il décrit ses savoirs et propose à Kevin de le replacer!  Quelques minutes plus tard Kevin roule sur le dos d'Eric, fait des petits sauts, lève les bras, plie les genoux... et expire!

Eric continue les manipulations, replaçant bassins, jambes, épaules, doigts, étirant les articulations de Fred, Dorothée et Aurélie, distribuant  explications détaillées sur chaque mouvement. Une fois de plus, c'est l'arroseur arrosé: la soirée massage s'achève par une inversion des rôles! (le premier épisode ici)
 
Et si vous voulez voir l'équipe de Exeko se faire manipuler, c'est ici pour Fred, là pour Kevin, ou encore là pour Dorothée! Et pour davantage de photo, rendez vous sur notre album flickr!
