The Power of Touch

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.

Combined Therapies

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.

Inspiration

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.

Tension Headaches

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.
