Reflexology

I was away for a short break sometime ago. Decided that I need to get some cool fresh air. So I took wifey and drove up to Camerons just for the weekend. Left early saturday morning and came back down again on Sunday. That place brings back some overwhelming emotional feelings for me. I used to hike a lot. Hiking up mountains and just looking at the green scenery around you is .... simply amazing. Ever since my knee got busted up so badly ... I have not hiked for the past ... 8 years? That's a long time. So when I drove up there, I got a little emo about it. Besides, Camerons is a very small town, time slows down over here. Back in KL, I would be friggin' stressed out but once you drive into Brinchang or Tanah Rata, you will feel the difference.

Anyway, while I was in Camerons, I decided to try out this reflexology place in Tanah Rata. Foot massage. I have tried foot massage before but this one .... well, here's the blog:

Uncle: (while massaging me hooves) young man, pain ah?

Me: (winced) a bit lah

Uncle: (squeezed my big toe) pain ah?

Me: errr ... a bit

Uncle: (massaged the big toe harder) now?

Me: Yup. pain (kan ni neh ... i cursed quietly)

Uncle: you have sleep problems. you get a lot of headache

Me: (thought to myself - fark, he's right) errrr.... something like that lah (still wincing)

Uncle: (massaged other area) - young man, don't smoke so much. your lungs not so good

Me: Huh? Uncle. I don't smoke lah. (fark - now he is wrong)

Uncle: huh? cannot be? something not right. your lungs not so good.

Me: mumble ...

Uncle: you have knee problems

Me: yup. very obvious mah. damn big scar there

Uncle: (dug deep into my foot with his knuckles) here .... your knee problems

Me: OW!!!

Me: ey ... uncle, you know ah, the way you tell me that I have all these problems .... wah lau, macamlah I am soooooo damaged like that ...

Uncle: true what. haha

Me: fark ... mumble mumble ow ow ow ...

Uncle: don't worry, tonight you will sleep better.

True enough ... I slept better that night. Haven't had a peaceful sleep for a long time. Well ... it was only for that night. Next night it was back to normal again. Sighs.

Anyway, if any of you goes to Camerons, do give it a try. That uncle is good. The place is in Tanah Rata.
