She quickly found the spot where my right shoulder has some damage from  serving tennis balls.\u00a0 She noticed immediately that my left knee was  loose, before I mentioned not having an ACL.\u00a0 Kim has been with Two  Bunch for 18 years and is very good at what she does.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_804\" style=\"width: 208px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2012\/02\/c9.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-804\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-804\" src=\"http:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2012\/02\/c9-198x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"198\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-804\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">White robes are worn everywhere at Two Bunch.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The treatments here are not inexpensive.\u00a0 But for a high quality retreat that\u2019s equally spiritual and physical, Two Bunch Palms is worth the investment in simply being.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the opposite side of Interstate 10 from Old Palm Springs is the two of Desert Hot Springs, home of&#8230;  <a class=\"excerpt-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/uncategorized\/800\/getting-the-kinks-worked-out-at-two-bunch-palms\" title=\"ReadGetting The Kinks Worked Out at Two Bunch Palms\">Read more &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":48,"featured_media":803,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,9,39217,288270,299119,18,17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-800","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","category-golf","category-golf-road-warriors","category-grw-palm-springs","category-greater-palm-springs-cva","category-lifestyle","category-courses-and-travel"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2012\/02\/c10.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/48"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=800"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":806,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800\/revisions\/806"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/803"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=800"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=800"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/jaystuller\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
