Who knew self-care could feel this fabulous?

The only thing better than a massage is the anticipation of it.

Is it okay to fall asleep during a massage… or is that awkward? 😴

This is one of the most common (and quietly worried-about) questions people have before or during a session. So let’s clear it up once and for all.

Here’s what falling asleep during a massage actually means:

• Your nervous system feels safe - drifting off is a sign your body can fully relax
• Your muscles are letting go - sleep often happens when tension releases
• You’re not “missing” the massage - your body still receives the benefits, even if your mind checks out

Falling asleep during a massage isn’t rude, embarrassing, or wasted time - it’s your body doing exactly what it needs in that moment!

Double tap if this makes you feel relieved - and tell me in the comments: have you ever caught yourself snoring on the table? 😅 (it's actually a huge compliment to your massage therapist, so don't be sorry!)

January 26th is National Spouses Day, and we're going to talk about it because caring for yĚłoĚłuĚłrĚłsĚłeĚłlĚłfĚł is part of caring for the people you love.

So many people put their own needs last, especially when they’re showing up for a partner, family, or household. But when your body is tense, exhausted, or running on empty, it’s harder to be patient, present, and connected.

Self-care isn’t selfish - it’s supportive.

Taking care of your body helps you regulate stress, sleep better, and have more energy to give where it matters most.

Think about it this way…
Supporting your relationship doesn’t always mean doing more for someone else. Sometimes it means giving your body what it needs - rest, recovery, and space to reset - so you can show up as your best self.

What’s one small way you care for yourself that helps you show up better for others?

It’s National Hugging Day! Did you know your nervous system can tell the difference between real, safe touch and everything else? 🧘

A genuine hug can slow your breathing, lower stress hormones, and help your body feel more grounded.

That’s not just emotional - it’s neurological.

Safe, consensual touch sends a signal to your nervous system that it’s okay to soften and let go. Massage works through that same pathway: calming the stress response, supporting emotional regulation, and helping your body move out of “fight or flight” and into rest.

That’s why human touch can feel so powerful - and why how it’s offered matters.

Think about it this way…
Your body responds best when touch feels safe, respectful, and intentional. Whether it’s a hug from someone you trust or a massage session with clear communication and consent, those boundaries are what allow your nervous system to truly relax.

Safe human touch is so important.

That standing quad stretch is 🗑️ and doesn’t do much to help prevent soreness. Especially if you’re a hyper mobile person!

Try this roll out using Therapy Balls to reduce soreness while improving hydration of all of the tissues at the front of your thigh.

Super easy - place the therapy balls on the front of your thigh. Lay down (on the bed works too!), and move around. Spend at least 2.5 mins here. And enjoy not feeling sore for 3+ days after your next workout.

Let’s clear something up: massage therapists don’t always need to use as much pressure as possible.

There’s a common belief that if a massage isn’t deep or intense, it’s not effective. But pressure is just one tool - and more pressure doesn’t automatically mean better results.

Here’s what actually matters during a massage:

• Your nervous system - muscles release best when your body feels safe, not braced
• The tissue response - sometimes gentle work allows deeper change than forcing pressure
• Your goals that day - recovery, relaxation, pain relief, or mobility all call for different approaches

Massage isn’t about “going hard.” It’s about giving your body the right kind of support at the right time. Effective work meets your body where it is - not where you think it should be.

Double tap if this surprised you - and let me know in the comments if you’ve ever wondered what kind of pressure is actually best for your body.

Ever feel like your massage therapist is working right on your kidney when they’re in your low back?

Good news - they’re not touching your kidney at all.

That deep, achy spot near your lower ribs is often a muscle called the quadratus lumborum (QL). It sits deep in the low back and helps stabilize your spine, support posture, and assist with bending and side-to-side movement.

Because of where it lives, QL work can feel:
• very deep
• a little “inside”
• intense but relieving
• like pressure near the flank or rib area

That sensation surprises a lot of people, but it’s completely normal.

This muscle often gets cranky from:
• long hours of sitting or standing
• favoring one side of the body
• stress and guarding
• low back or hip tension

When your therapist works there, the goal isn’t to poke anything important - it’s to help that deep stabilizing muscle soften so your low back can finally relax.

If something ever feels too intense, always speak up. Massage should feel productive, not alarming.
Sometimes the weirdest sensations come from muscles you didn’t even know you had.

The 5 Way Shoulder Warm Up looks simple… because it is. 😝

But don’t underestimate what a little daily movement can do. Just five minutes a day can help improve your posture, breathing, upper body flexibility, and even calm your nervous system.

Mobility doesn’t have to be complicated, it doesn’t have to hurt, and it definitely doesn’t have to take more than a few minutes.

You just have to do it… consistently.

Move your body in ways that aren’t hunched over your phone or computer, and you’ll be amazed at how much better you feel.
