Research + Rates + Referrals

I want to share something somewhat intimate with you. I don't want this to be taken the wrong way, but over the last few weeks I've been more excited to go to work than I had been for years!

Ever since I returned from my orthopedic massage seminar ( with James Waslaski (https://orthomassage.net/) ), I've been implementing new tools from the workshop and have been very encouraged by the results.

Treating joint function, "putting everything back in it's place", the use of the MyoBuddy in addition to the deep specific tissue work I do has been truly awesome for client pain relief.

I want to invite you to take a quick look at the research about the
~ Scar tissue release therapy (https://www.dolphinmps.com/mps-scar-release-therapy/) ~
I've started sharing with clients in the office.
The MPS (microcurrent) therapy I've been practicing with the Dolphin Neurostim actually penetrates deep into the body to release scar tissue and increase cell metabolism, ATP, and protein synthesis (Cheung 1982). It softens scar tissue and provides pain relief throughout the whole body
(OGN – 82% (https://www.lidsen.com/journals/icm/icm-04-03-056) , JCIAM 73% (https://medcraveonline.com/IJCAM/the-successful-treatment-of-chronic-pain-using-microcurrent-point-stimulation-applied-to-scars.html) ).

In short, we are continually improving our work together for optimal inhabitance of a human body, and I am pleased to thank you for being a part of it!

Finally, I'm giving a heads up to existing clients of my new rates moving forward. These rates are already in effect on the website for new clients, but existing clients will be given the old rates until Sept 1.

60 Minutes - $110
90 Minutes - $140
120 Minutes - $180

This comes with a reminder that tipping is very much appreciated but not required. Packages of 4 are a great option to save $5-10 per treatment, and 75 minute treatments will be offered to those who are needing a different option for their budget.

I must thank you again for allowing me to serve at my best capacity and for referring me to the people I am able to help with my particular skill set.

Refer a friend for an initial visit and both of you receive $15 off using the coupon below! Just make sure to mention it to me so that I apply the coupon.

Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Warmly,
Claire

We have something to celebrate!

Dear Friends,

I am happy to report I just returned from an amazing massage workshop with James Waslaski in Columbia, SC. He is a master orthopedic massage therapist and teacher who's helped tens of thousands over the last 33 years!

Those of you who have been in my office this week have already enjoyed the benefits of what I learned - focusing on joint function BEFORE the soft tissue.
The name of the game is: "Put everything back in its place."
When we get the ankle, the knee, the hip, the shoulders, and the atlanto-occipital joint in line, the fascia and muscles follow suit.

In short, I'm learning to help you better and faster!

To celebrate, take an additional $10 off all gift certificates and packages purchased online through Thursday July 31st!
These can be used for yourself or loved ones, and shared between family members as desired.

Right now is a great time to commit to your wellness before the upcoming fall price adjustment. Thank you for supporting my ability to do this work at my full capacity!

In the next few weeks I'll be rolling out some new tools I've invested in: a professional MyoBuddy massager to activate those weak glutes and rhomboid and relieve tight low back and neck muscles, and a microcurrent neurostim device for scar tissue release and vagal nerve stimulation. Please feel free to reach out with questions about how these tools could help you.

We are finally escaping to the beach for a few days (7/27 - 7/30) so I will return inquiries on 7/31 if I don't catch you before then!

With so much gratitude,
Claire

Better structure yields better results.

When we commit to what's good for us,

the benefits ripple out through all areas of our life.

I love my job largely because clients who see me regularly,
who establish a rhythm or pattern of massage that works for them,
report significant decrease in pain and stress,
an increase in sleep, relaxation, performance, connection to loved ones and progress towards life goals.

That's why I encourage you to invest in yourself with a 4 session massage package, on sale this week with huge savings!

Four (4) 60 Minute Sessions - $350
Four (4) 90 Minute Sessions - $450
Foru (4) 120 Minute Sessions - $590

Receive an additional $30 off normal package savings by Sunday 1/5.
Packages are for use within a 6 month period and CAN be shared between family members or even gifted to friends.

It's hard to believe I'm going on 14 years as a massage therapist and still grateful to do meaningful work I love, with people I love. Thank you so much for building relationships with me and trusting me with your bodies. The results we achieve together in the treatment room and all of the growth I get to witness on your wellness journeys continually fuels my passion and dedication to this work.

A little over two years into establishing my practice here in NC, I am adjusting my rates by $10 per session beginning Dec 1. Thank you for supporting me staying in business in this hands-on, specialized profession and keeping up with rising costs of living.

Dec 1 rates:
60 minutes - $100
90 minutes - $130
120 minutes - $170

Cash and Referral Discounts Continue
- Cash discount will remain in effect, but will be reduced to $5 discount per session to spare us all the credit card processing fees.
- $15 off Referral Discount - Good for $15 off one session you and one for for your friend or family member for each new client referral - just make sure to let me know and have them write your name on their intake form

With that being said, I'm including a coupon for $5 off that you can use anytime during the holiday season that's now upon us! I have both regular and Christmas-themed gift certificates available for your loved ones to receive something worthwhile.

Make your purchase early this year and enjoy the lower rates before Dec 1!

A Note on Tipping
Tips are appreciate but not required. While a tip of 15-25% is customary in my profession for excellent service, I would rather you be able to come more frequently to receive care if the tip is a deciding factor.

Thank you for staying connected and please reach out with any wellness questions, referrals, or booking inquiries!

Holiday Hours
I do not have big travel plans this year and do have availability the week of Thanksgiving.
As always, if you don't see a spot that works for you, reach out to me directly to see if I can squeeze you in on a weekend, evening, or Monday (my usual day off, which sometimes rotates).

Ameyalli's Home Education Fund
Many of you have heard of my son's adventures in homeschooling as he fields rigorous Classical Conversations work, Central STEM enrichment classes, 8 Points Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu, Bible study, and Trail Life adventures here in his 7th grade year as a 12 year old little man!

Trail Life took the boys this month to Western NC where they shoveled dirt out of storage units and Ameyalli was moved to find everyday items being thrown out in piles upon piles, and to understand the soreness that only comes from shoveling.

We ask for prayers that the Lord would give us wisdom in making the best use of this precious homeschooling time this year.

If you feel called to give financially to aide with his tuition and educational needs, you can do so here:

God bless you every one.

It's the fascia and muscles giving form to the skeleton, form follows function, not vice versa! Tom Myers is the foremost expert on fascial systems and his Anatomy Trains work has helped me help clients regain elasticity in their tissues so we can respond to our environments more like babies and less like old souls. :)

Grateful to be helping people get out of pain since 2011! If you love going to work, what is your job and why do you think you love it?
