Getting Massaged with a Meat Cleaver Is a Life-Altering Experience

Santiago Terrasas, a Shoshoni martial artist and kinesiologist who lives outside of Reno, Nevada, will happily take you down with a meat cleaver. For 40 minutes, he'll whack at you with the sharp edge, livening up the blood flowing in your body. Eugene S. Robinson describes the experience in Ozy:

“Well, ultimately, our body wants to breathe,” says the 41-year-old Terrases. “So I want to improve the flow of blood, spread those blood vessels, open up the muscles and push the pain out.” A statement that could easily have been attributed to at least a half-dozen serial killers. [...]
“There are more things under heaven on Earth than in our books of science,” says surgeon Dr. Steve Ballinger quoting Hamlet. “But I’ve had four massages with razor-sharp instruments and it seems like it works 50 percent of the time. Usually if the cleaver is cold, it’s like an ice massage. Or maybe it scares you into a neuro reset.”

Terrasas charges $3 a minute, but will soon raise that price due to increased demand for his services. So make an appointment while you can still afford it.

New Age Saps will buy any bullshit. I'm surprised this guy did not go Native Tradition and start whacking them with a tomahawk, More cosmick debris. Is that a real poncho or a Sears poncho?
