💪 Triceps: the Powerhouse on the back of our arm

Did you know the triceps is the only muscle on the back of our upper arm? It extends the elbow, stabilises pushing movements and even plays a subtle but important role in posture (think elbow extension, shoulder stability and alignment).

🔍Trigger Points & Referral Pain:
Clinically, trigger points in triceps often refer pain down the arm, sometimes into the hand and fingers. This can mimic nerve issues but often stems from muscle tension itself.

🌿 through a spiritual lens:
The triceps energetically connect to pushing away, releasing, and letting go. Tension here may reflect resistance - holding on when it’s time to trust, release, or stop forcing outcomes.
Releasing these points can feel like freeing the body and spirit from unnecessary pressure.

✨ When your triceps feel tight, ask:

Clinically: “Is my pushing/pressing work overloading my arms?”

Spiritually: “Where am I pushing too hard in life instead of flowing?”

Stretch. Release. Breathe. Let go. 💫

Anatomically, our sacrum - the triangular(ish)-shaped bone at the base of our spine - is the keystone of our pelvis. It carries the weight of the spine and transfers it to our hips and legs. Tiny movements at the sacroiliac joints absorb shock, while muscles and fascia anchor here to connect the low back, core and glutes into one powerful web.

When fascia around the sacrum gets restricted, through injury, lack of movement, or stress, it can limit joint mobility, affect muscle function, reduce shock absorption and impact posture and alignment - making bending, twisting, walking, and other movements less fluid and more prone to strain, both local and more globally.

Myofascial release - using slow, connected pressure and stretching - helps soften these restrictions, restoring freedom throughout the fascial web, improving movement and easing low back or hip pain/discomfort.

I’d love to help if any of the above sounds like you ✨

✨ Say hello to your calves - the gastrocnemius, soleus, and their many supporting allies.

These tireless muscles carry us forward, lift us upward and anchor us firmly to the earth. They work harder than we often realise.

Spiritually speaking, our calves represent movement, trust, and the courage to keep going. Tightness here may reflect holding back or carrying what no longer serves us - and massage encourages surrender, flow and a rooted strength.

Calf massage can also help:

• Ease the strain of walking, running, or standing
• Relieve tension in the Achilles tendon and ankles
• Reduce knee, quad and hip pain
• Alleviate plantar fasciitis discomfort
• Support circulation and lymphatic flow
• Encourage fascial (connective tissue) release in all other areas of the body

In a world where so much of our energy is stuck in the mind, massaging the calves can not only help with discomfort, but can also be deeply grounding. It draws awareness back into our body, into areas we often ignore - unless pain forces us to notice.

When we soften our calves, we soften our journey ✨

Love these gorgeous candles and diffusers from , crafted with pure essential oils and natural ingredients. My favourite is No. 3 Balance - a calming blend of Geranium, Ylang Ylang, and Bergamot. I also love that their ceramic candle pots are refillable (not pictured here, but I have a few 🙂).

Why our Neck and Shoulders hold so much tension – and how Massage can help

The upper trapezius muscles help stabilise our neck and shoulders, but long hours at a desk, poor posture, or simply holding ourselves in ‘ready mode’ when stressed can cause them to stay switched on - sometimes all day. Over time, our nervous system starts to think this tension is normal...

At the same time, our shoulders are often where we carry the weight of the world. Responsibilities, worries and emotions we’ve never quite expressed can live here. Our body remembers - right up until we give it permission to let go.

If your neck and shoulders feel heavy, sore or achy, it’s not just about stretching more (although stretching is important too), it’s about giving your body the signal that it’s safe to relax.

The scapula is designed to glide - not get stuck.

But over time, layers of muscle and myofascia can become glued together - from overuse, underuse, or emotional holding.

This area, often called the “wings” of the body, holds deep tension, both physically and energetically. When the scapula loses its freedom, we can feel restricted not just in movement, but in breath, expression and even emotion.

Energetically, the upper back is a place where we often store unspoken truths, withheld grief, and burdens we carry for others. It’s no coincidence that this is also the area associated with the heart chakra’s back body - the part that receives support and trust.

Releasing this space isn’t just about mobility - it’s about liberation.

✨ Free your fascia. Free your wings. Free yourself. ✨
