SPRING IS HERE! 🌸
We’re celebrating the season of renewal at Restorative Rituals!

Spring is the perfect time to shake off the winter cobwebs, not just from our homes, but from our bodies too. After months of cold weather, our muscles, fascia, circulation, lymphatic flow, and even our nervous systems can feel sluggish and tense.

Now is the time to move, stretch, and soak in the sunshine. 🌞 A massage is the perfect way to reset and give yourself the TLC you’ve been craving. Let me help you dust off those cobwebs, and maybe a little more. ✨

Let’s talk about the belly, one of the most overlooked areas in massage therapy… and one of the most important.
Most therapists avoid offering it and some clients are uncomfortable with receiving it. And I can understand why - it’s a very vulnerable place for most people of us. It protects our vital organs and can be the source of aesthetic insecurity… but truth is, your abdomen is both the command center for your digestion, nervous system, and emotional tension while also housing powerful muscles groups that can be the main source of your chronic physical pain.

Here’s why you might want to show your belly some love:
✨ Can help reduce pain and tension in the low back and hips
✨ Supports healthy digestion + reduces bloating
✨ Eases constipation and sluggishness
✨ Helps release stored emotional tension (yes, gut feelings are real!)
✨ Encourages lymphatic flow + detox (most lymph nodes in this area)
✨ Relieves tension in the diaphragm for better breathing⁠

Abdominal massage is important. It’s time we stop ignoring it and start supporting it. And while some therapists avoid offering it, I don’t.

Belly massage can be either gentle/nurturing or deep/powerful - both highly therapeutic. ⁠💛
If you’re feeling called to try for yourself, don’t be shy! Your gut will thank you.

Massage isn’t just for when things hurt.
Regular sessions help regulate your nervous system, support lymphatic circulation, reduce chronic tension, and improve sleep (and even our relationship with ourselves over time).

It’s preventative care, not just a treat.
The more consistently you support your body, the less it needs to shout to get your attention and the less it becomes your own worst enemy. It’s time to take care of ourselves in the way we’d want someone to care for us. In the ways we all deserve -> cause we’re trying our best out here!

What you see here might look unusual but those little round cups hold big healing potential.

Cupping therapy has been used for thousands of years to draw stagnant blood, reduce inflammation, and release deep muscular tension. By creating a gentle vacuum, we encourage fresh localized circulation, helping your tissues hydrate and ease pain. Instead of pushing into the tissues that traditional massage does, cupping pulls instead - creating space between layers of muscle and fascia.

It’s especially helpful for:
🌿 Chronic muscle tightness
🌿 Headaches + migraines
🌿 Stress + nervous system regulation
🌿 Postural tension from long hours at a desk
🌿 Injury recovery and scar tissue release

Clients often say it feels like their muscles are finally able to exhale.

Curious to try it or want to know if it’s right for you? I’m always happy to chat. At the moment, it can be included in your usual massage service at no extra cost. Your body will tell you what it needs, we just need to listen! 💆‍♀️🫶

“Are you Canadian… ?”
It’s probably the question I get asked the most (must be the neutral accent and all the politeness). But nope. Born and raised in Lafayette, and later New Orleans, Louisiana. 🐊🇺🇸

I grew up with accordion music in my ears, humidity in my hair, and a deep respect for soulful connection. It was my mother who first inspired me to become a massage therapist. She used it as a remedy for everything - headaches, stress, growing pains, even bad moods.

Eventually, I moved to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, where I studied massage therapy and fell in love with the healing power of therapeutic touch. It felt both ancestral and completely natural to me.

Fast forward, and I’ve been living in Newcastle for over two years now. It’s become a place I’m proud and grateful to call home.

Massage has been my calling for the last seven years. It’s not just how I make a living, it has shaped who I am. I believe healing begins with being seen, heard, and yes, even held. We hear so much about the first two, but the latter is often left out of the conversation. Human touch isn’t a luxury. It’s a psychological need. Babies can’t emotionally develop without it, and that need doesn’t go away as we grow older.

My work is rooted in deep presence, safe and non-judgmental space, evidence-based research and the kind of nurturing touch that lingers long after the session ends.

Whether you’re in physical pain, burned out from both ends, or just simply craving stillness, the space I’ve created in my Mayfield studio is here to hold you.

If you’re new here - welcome. My door is always open. 🤍

You deserve that kind of serenity and joy within your mind & body.
