Tip #14: Keep the Daytime Routine the Same. Even if you have a bad night sleep and are tired it is important that you try to keep your daytime activities the same as you had planned. That is, don’t avoid activities because you feel tired. This can reinforce the insomnia. Try to make a habit of getting regular exposure to outdoor or bright lights, especially in the afternoon.

Tip #13: Create the Right Space. It’s very important that your bed and bedroom conditions are appropriate for sleeping.
* Bedding and pillows are in good condition
* A cooler room with enough blankets to stay warm is best
* Have the curtains drawn or an eye mask to block out early morning light
* Keep in neat and tidy
* Introduce pleasant smells such as lavender oil. Food odors or the smell of coffee may stimulate the sensation to be awake.
* Make sure the home is safe: doors locked, windows closed for a sense of security.
* Keep the bedroom quiet when sleeping or wear earplugs if there is noise outside your room.

Tip #12: Eat Right. A healthy, balance diet will help you sleep well, but timing is important. Some people find that a very empty stomach at bedtime is distracting, so it can be useful to have a light snack, but a very heavy meal or spicy food soon before bed can also interrupt sleep. Some people recommend a warm glass of milk, which contains tryptophan, which acts as a natural sleep inducer.

Tip #11: Exercise. Regular exercise is a good idea to help with good sleep, but try not to do strenuous exercise in the 4 hours before bedtime. It doesn’t have to be an elaborate workout. It could be as simple as a walk.

Tip #10: Use as Sleep Diary. This can be useful in making sure you have the right facts about your sleep, rather than making assumptions. Tracking for about 2 weeks can give an idea of what’s going on and then perhaps again in a couple of months to track progress.

Tip #9: No Clock-Watching. Many people struggle with sleep tend to watch the clock too much. Doing so actually can wake you up and reinforce negative thoughts of the little sleep you had.

Tip #8: Take a Hot Bath. Having a hot bath 1-2 hours before bedtime can be useful, as it will raise your body temperature, causing you to feel sleepy as your body temperature drops again. Research shows that sleepiness is associated with a drop in body temperature. Wash your face with warm water.

Tip #7: Develop Sleep Rituals. You can develop your own rituals of things to remind your body that it’s time to sleep for 15 minutes before bed each night, or relaxing with a cup of herbal tea (caffeine free). (ex. relaxing stretches or breathing exercises, meditation).

Cupping decompresses the issues and creates space for the muscles to relax. The marks left by the cups are non-traumatic, indicating the increase in blood to the area to nourish and repair our muscles.

Tip # 6: Avoid taking Naps. It’s best to avoid taking naps during the day to make sure that you are tired at bedtime. If you can’t make it through the day without a nap, keep it to less than an hour and before 3 pm.

Tip #5: Avoid Alcohol. It is also best to avoid alcohol for at least 4/6 hours before going to bed. Many people believe that alcohol is relaxing and helps them to get to sleep at first, but it actually interrupts the quality of sleep and your sleep cycle.

Tip #4: Avoid Caffeine & Ni****ne. It’s best to avoid any caffeine or ni****ne for at least 4-6 hours before going to bed. These substances act as stimulants and interfere with the ability to fall asleep.

Our Story

Why did I choose Massage Therapy?

Truth is, I would have never imagined that I would be doing massage for a living. I always thought I was going to be a physical therapist. As a young child, I was diagnosed with scoliosis. Luckily, it was caught early and I didn’t need surgery. That’s where I was introduced to physical therapy. It changed my life. I was given corrective exercises that prevented having to wear a brace and/or undergo surgery. How awesome! My experience was an inspiration for my future career.

So what changed my mind? Where did I get the idea of massage therapy? It all came down to an internship.

As part of my undergraduate experience, I did an internship at an outpatient physical therapy clinic. I was able to observe and experience what it was like to be a physical therapist. Everything from creating treatment plans for strengthening muscles to manually manipulating muscles to juggling multiple patients at once. The further into the internship I got, the more I realized that physical therapy was not for me. I knew that I wanted to help people physically get better, but this wasn’t how.
