WHAT SETS ME APART FROM OTHER THERAPISTS:
No fancy building or upscale room and I have always offered 1-2 types of massage services to my clients. Therapeutic massage and pregnancy masage. On the surface it just looks basic when so many other therapists and businesses offer a wide range of services. The question, “what sets me apart from the rest” has been in the back of mind for some time. I have pondered this, while also knowing the answer, but not knowing just exactly how to word it. I worried, but not worried at the same time (is that thing? To worry but not worry at the same time…?) what people would say and how it would affect incoming clientele. I have had some time to ponder and reflect for sure… so much more I could say, but….
I am far from perfect and haven’t arrived 100% in anything, and a work in progress for sure. But today I give you what sets me apart from the rest of other therapists in this field:
I operate on Biblical principles, values and on faith in Jesus Christ. I don’t blend or incorporate spiritual practices from other belief systems—no crystals, no energy work, no “universe” or “self” as the healer.
I invite the presence of the Holy Spirit into each session. I cover my room and every session in prayer. Worship music plays in the background, creating an atmosphere where Jesus is welcomed, honored, and trusted to do what only He can do. The truth is that all healing—spirit, body, and soul—comes from Jesus, Who is LORD, Who is the living God, and the Creator of all.
This isn’t just about relaxing muscles or reliving pain—it’s about allowing Holy Spirit to move and minster to hearts through touch and through the music that is played—to heal the brokenhearted, to bring comfort, to renew hope, and to minister deeply in ways only He can.
Massage is the method. Ministry is the mission. You are the clay—He is the Potter.
(Isaiah 64:8)
