People often think massage therapy is just about relaxation – but there's a lot more to it than that.

Massage Therapists work with your body, your goals, and your level of comfort to support movement, recovery, and overall well-being. Whether you're dealing with tension/pain, a hectic routine, or just need time to reset, massage therapy can be part of a broader care plan.

There is no single answer for how massage therapy fits into someone’s life, because every body carries stress differently. 💆

At Lifemark, massage therapists work with people whose bodies are affected by many different demands. That may include physical work 👷, long hours sitting 🧑‍💻, training ⛹️, recovery from injury 🤕, or ongoing muscle tension 🪢.

Massage therapy can support rehabilitation, recovery, or general wellness, depending on what the body needs at that time. Care is guided by assessment and adjusted as goals and demands change. Our massage therapists use a personalized approach to support long-term function, not just short-term relief.

Doomscrolling often starts as a way to manage stress or distract from uncomfortable thoughts. Lifemark Registered Clinical Counsellor Amber Tilitzky shares that even “mindless” scrolling keeps the brain alert and engaged.

When the nervous system stays stimulated for long periods, it may become harder to unwind, sleep well, or feel mentally settled.

Our mental health professionals can help you understand why habits like doomscrolling form and how to replace them with strategies that better support regulation and rest. Find a clinic near you: https://tinyurl.com/47pmph7e

Setting a New Year's goal to run a 10K is exciting – but preparation is key.

A gradual 10K training plan, proper warm-ups, strength training to support joints and muscles, and regular mobility exercises all play an important role in running consistency. Many runners also benefit from working with a care team, including physiotherapy for runners, massage therapy, chiropractic care, or dry needling, to help support recovery and training demands.

If running a 10K is on your list this year, building the right habits – and the right care team – can help support your goal.

🎶 On the twelfth day of movement, your Lifemark team shares with you: three easy moves to feel light and loose.

When the season stacks up – meals, visits, late nights – a short stretch check-in can help you feel more comfortable. Breathe through the nose, keep the range easy, and pause where you feel tight from sitting or standing. Think slow, smooth, and pain-free so you finish feeling refreshed, not spent.

Thanks for joining our 12 Days of Movement – Happy Holidays from the Lifemark team! 🎁❄️
