The Victoria Day Recovery!

Did you spend the Victoria Day long weekend getting "garden ready," opening up the cabin, or finally tackling that backyard project?
If your body is singing the May long weekend blues today with a tight lower back, aching shoulders, or stiff neck—you are not alone!

The unofficial start of summer in NL usually means we jump headfirst into heavy lifting, and our muscles definitely feel it by today!

Let’s get you moving comfortably so you can enjoy the rest of the season ahead.

Victoria Day: Garden Ready & Pain-Free!

The May 24th weekend is finally here! For many of us in NL, this is the unofficial kickoff to gardening season and the great outdoors. While we’re all eager to get those flower beds ready and the patio set out, remember that your back hasn't done "garden duty" since last year!

Quick Tips for a Painless Weekend:
Warm Up: Treat gardening like a workout. A 5-minute walk or some light stretching before you grab the shovel goes a long way.

Lift Smart: Squat with your knees, not your back, when moving those heavy bags of soil.

Switch It Up: Change positions every 20 minutes to avoid stiffening up.

📍 Holiday Hours Update
Our team is taking a little break to enjoy the spring air too! We will be CLOSED on Monday, May 18th.

We wish all of our wonderful clients a safe, relaxing, and—most importantly—painless long weekend. We can't wait to hear about your garden progress when we return!

Valarie & Susan.

💙 Celebrating Our Healthcare Heroes: National Nursing Week 💙

We know that a "typical day" for a nurse is anything but typical. It’s 12-hour shifts spent almost entirely on your feet. It’s the physical demand of lifting and moving patients, and the mental weight of providing constant compassionate care.

At Full Circle Acupuncture & Wellness, we believe the caregivers deserve to be cared for, too. Acupuncture and wellness treatments are powerful tools to reset the nervous system, reduce inflammation in tired joints, and help your body recover so you can keep doing what you do best.

Email fullcircleacup@gmail.com today to book your session.

To all the nurses—thank you for your dedication, your resilience, and your heart. You are the backbone of our healthcare system, and we are honored to support your health in return.

Meet Susan O’Dea – The Friendly Hands Behind Relaxation at Full Circle Acupuncture & Wellness

If you’ve ever walked out of a massage thinking, “Wow… I didn’t realize how much tension I was carrying,” then you already understand why Susan O’Dea loves what she does.

Susan became a Registered Massage Therapist because she’s always been drawn to work that helps people feel better in their everyday lives. A self-described science nerd, she loves understanding how the body works — but just as much she enjoys meeting new people, hearing their stories, and helping someone leave their appointment feeling lighter, looser, and a whole lot better.

One technique Susan thinks everyone should experience at least once is trigger point therapy combined with deep tissue work. Many people carry stubborn tension in their neck, shoulders, and hips without realizing it — and when those knots finally release, the relief can be incredible.

One myth Susan loves to bust? Massage has to hurt to work.

“Good therapeutic work can be deep and effective without feeling like a battle between the therapist and your muscles,” she says. “It’s about working with the body, not against it.”

Every session begins with a conversation about pain levels, stress, and what clients want from their treatment. From there, Susan tailors the pressure and techniques so each massage truly matches what the body needs that day.


Many clients are surprised when regular massage helps improve sleep, headaches, jaw tension, and overall mobility — a reminder that the body is more connected than we often realize.

If her massage style had a theme song, she laughs and says it would be “Hurt So Good” by John Mellencamp — because sometimes those stubborn knots need a little work before the amazing relief kicks in.

✨ Come in and meet Susan and discover how good your body is meant to feel. Whether you’re dealing with tension, pain, stress, or just need time to reset, massage therapy can help you move, feel, and live better.
