🧠 Scientists have discovered a remarkable way to double the brain’s waste clearance system—not with drugs or surgery, but simply by massaging the skin.

A team from the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) has shown in mice that gently stimulating the lymphatic vessels under the skin of the face and neck can dramatically boost cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow. This process helps flush out toxins and waste products from the brain, including harmful proteins linked to Alzheimer’s disease. Using a specially designed mechanical stimulator, researchers restored CSF drainage to youthful levels in aged mice, suggesting a safe, non-invasive strategy to improve brain health.

Even more exciting, the study mapped previously unknown drainage routes from the brain to superficial lymph nodes through facial lymphatics—pathways that remain active even in older animals. This discovery completes the anatomical picture of CSF outflow and hints at future wearable or clinical devices designed to enhance brain cleansing.

While more research is needed before human applications, this gentle mechanical approach may open the door to new therapies aimed at preventing or slowing neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

As Licensed Massage Therapist we put our whole heart into our healing hands. Thank you to all my wonderful clients who trust me with their healing.

Thank you to the therapist who wrote how I feel so eloquently…..

Massage Therapy Isn’t Easy.

This work—this calling—is more than just helping someone relax.
It’s physical. It’s emotional. It’s soul work.

Every day, we show up and give parts of ourselves to help others heal.
We carry your pain—sometimes literally in our hands, sometimes silently in our hearts.
Our backs ache, our joints swell, and our energy runs low… but we stay grounded, focused, and present—because we know the power of this work.

What people don’t always see is what it takes to hold space for someone’s healing:
To feel the tension of trauma trapped in their muscles
To hear the tears hit the floor when the body finally lets go
To witness someone rediscover their breath, their range of motion, their sense of peace.
To remain calm and regulated while someone else unravels
To manage our own stress, exhaustion, grief, or pain—so we don’t pour it into you
To spend our off hours stretching, icing, and soaking so we can show up for you again tomorrow
To feel someone’s pain and still be gentle
To absorb the weight of stories we’ll never repeat but always carry

And then there’s what we endure behind the scenes.
We get asked if we “give extras.”
We get laughed at or sexualized when we say we’re massage therapists.
We get called “masseuses”—a word that feels like nails on a chalkboard, rooted in outdated and exploitative views.

We are Licensed Massage Therapists.
We are trained, educated, and ethical practitioners.
We are not here for entertainment.
We are here for healing.

And that healing?
It’s not just about the body.
It’s the woman with chronic pain who can finally sleep through the night.
It’s the man with PTSD who feels safe enough to close his eyes.
It’s the mom who carries the weight of the world but finally feels held herself.
It’s the client who comes in disconnected—and leaves back in their body.

Yes, this job is hard.
It hurts.
It drains.
It costs us more than people realize.
But it’s also beautiful.
Transformative.
Sacred.

So when you come to us, remember:
You’re not just booking a massage.
You’re not just paying for an hour on the table.
You’re paying for years of training, body strain, emotional labor, and deep compassion.

And we are damn proud of what we do.
You’re stepping into a space where real healing happens—
for you, and often, for us too.
