Have you ever heard of a Self-Love Menu? I hadn't until a couple of weeks ago, but I love it! Basically, it's a menu of all of -or a few of- the things that you do to love yourself. I can't remember exactly where I saw it, but they recommended starting with a list of 10 things. In my head, I was like "Oh! That'll be easy!" Yeah, not so much. It was actually harder then I anticipated. 

Touch is very powerful, both bad and good. I want to discuss the power of touch in a healthy, loving environment. Did you know that to thrive in relationships, as a baby, or as a child touch is SO important? The smallest touch can activate those reward centers in the brain and make us feel better. We feel happier, safer, more confident, more soothed and more connected.

Did you know? More people complain about headaches than any other medical ailment. 

There are approximately 45 million Americans complaining of headaches each year. That works out to about one in every six people. 

If you've ever checked out my website, you know that I have a lot of different services to choose from. For some of you, that might be over stimulating and you may wonder "How do I know which one to pick?!" 

Hey you! Have you ever gotten into a massage and then freaked out internally because you might have forgotten to shave, or shower before you come?! 

If so,  read this. This is a list of 5 things that I wish you would believe when I tell you. I am serious, I mean it! Just relax, don't stress! 

I recommend a few different things after you receive a massage including drinking water, stretching, icing at times. But that list is missing one big one for me. Chiropractic care. Chiropractic Care is one of the best therapies to combine with Massage Therapy. Over the years I have seen many many clients progress their healing much more quickly when they get both chiropractic and massage. 

Today, I want to talk about rescheduling massages. This is meant to help you feel better about why I recommend you come back when I do. 

Hey, Hey! It's been awhile! I lost my inspiration for a bit there. In my head, I have been blaming it on this pregnancy (Yes, I'm pregnant with #3!), but really it's been an internal battle. 

I know a lot of people who suffer from headaches on a daily basis and just deal with it. You don’t need to suffer with headaches day in and day out. Tension headaches are the most common type of headache, and massage is a very useful tool to help break up those dense tissues causing the tension in the first place.

Brides are busy, and often stressed. Imagine how great a massage would feel before her wedding?! 

Birthday's are fun, and I want to help you celebrate! Ready for the announcement?!

Facebook reminded me this morning that I announced the opening of Encompass Therapeutic Massage one year ago!! A lot has happened since I opened up shop. I moved to the UP, opened up a location here, and also travel back to Minnesota to serve my amazing client's out there once a month.
