Stepp Above Massage

Stepp Above Massage Noblesville, IN Welcome! Within my massage practice I specialize in pain management, injury rehabilitation, and recovery for people of all walks of life.

I offer and blend many modalities into massage sessions including deep tissue/sports massage, Lomi, Thai, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, muscle energy techniques, and cupping. My style is slow, focused work that will leave you feeling a sense of long-lasting relief and relaxation. I work with many clients to manage pain or stress stemming from their occupation, hobbies, and sports. I l

ove to help people help others and keep them doing what they love! (veterinarians, medical professionals, teachers, athletes, hair stylists, tattoo artists, etc)

My prices are all inclusive meaning that there are no extra fees for cupping/hot stones and towels/aromatherapy. Tip is not expected as I am gearing my practice more towards a therapeutic approach like a chiropractor or acupuncturist.

This is not medical advice, this is my own personal experience of relieving pain & autoimmune
conditions by activating the body’s self healing system via nervous system regulation.

Remember when they used to tell women to use douches and all sorts of sprays/soaps to stay “clean” but now we understand the female reproductive system is SELF cleaning?!?! Same idea with the rest of your body.

Sometimes we need different tools to aid the body in regulation but we don’t/cant actually force/make the body do anything!!! It is a self-healing and organizing system. Pain & dis-eases are the bodies way of communicating that it needs your attention & help to rebalance. It is not always necessary to scan/cut/medicate because those only operate on the physical plane. Our bodies are also energetic & strongly influenced by perceived stress. This is where the medical system misses because when they can’t scan/cut/medicate something, it’s just a big question mark. I love western medicine for emergencies but for preventative and health care, it just doesn’t have the full picture.

Fun fact: I originally wanted to go to medical school but as I started learning I realized I didn’t want to be restricted by the medical and insurance system which is FOR PROFIT they can’t make money off of you if you’re healthy and realize your body is self healing.

Follow along to hear more about my story: I’ve been on a journey of healing hypermobility, heart palpitations, muscle and joint pain, and autoimmune conditions through nervous system regulation when the doctors said they don’t know or there is nothing they can do other than medication/invasive procedures. This led me to creating my own self-care toolkit (guided by my intuition, what works for me might not work for you, you have to follow your own intuition and do your own research.)

Massage isn’t the right word for what I do anymore… I’ve been thinking about this for awhile and I don’t know what to call it yet but I know that my skills are asking me to offer more and to go beyond offering a passive treatment. I’m not actually retiring from massage, I love what I do, but my practice is expanding and evolving alongside me. This is why I love being an entrepreneur in the health and wellness industry.

My goal is to educate and empower clients and people online to take health and pain relief into their own hands. You are the expert of your own body and it’s time we as health professionals start teaching our clients not to rely on us so much because you can’t always make it in to a professional when you’re in pain. We need to start tuning in to what our bodies are trying to communicate to us. Pain is a symptom and a message, your body is asking for your attention, not to be numbed or masked. Start tuning in to your intuition and it will lead you to the tools/modalities that will help you uniquely.

Healing & pain relief is not one size fits all, it’s unique to you. Start to build your own self care toolkit by downloading my free guide, link in my profile.

Learning partner massage is a wonderful way to help each other relieve stress and manage pain from the comfort of your own home. My husband and I help each other with headaches, neck pain, low back pain, knee pain, shoulder pain, sciatica, etc. Partner massage is also a great way to spend quality time.

I share self massage and partner massage techniques to take pain relief into your own hands because you can’t always make it into a professional when you’re suffering/in pain so having ways to treat trigger points at home is essential. Currently working on a low back pain relief class: solo and partner massage!

If you want to learn more, follow along and check out my course: Partner Massage for Headache Relief.

Part 5: how to release the scalenes to relieve neck pain, shoulder pain, the knot between your shoulder blades, and pain that radiates down the arm.

This technique helped one of my followers relieve debilitating pain that radiated down his whole arm. The DR said it might be a pinched nerve or something to do with his discs and scheduled an MRI weeks out and he could barely sleep because of the pain. I made him a video on how to release the scalenes because when they develop trigger points they can cause pain exactly like he was describing. Where you feel the pain isn’t always where it’s coming from!

Learn simple techniques like this to relieve pain at home because you can’t always make it to the DR/chiro/massage therapist when you’re hurting and they can’t always help you.

Save for later and add this technique to your pain relief toolkit. Put your questions or requests in the comments.

Part 4- save for later & follow, go check out parts 1-3 as well because where you are feeling the pain, isn’t always where it’s coming from!!

When it comes to neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain, headaches, and TMJ… it’s often a culmination of posture, hobbies/work/time on the phone and computer, stress, repressed emotions, breathing patterns, and your sense of identity and belonging in the world.

In parts 1-3 I showed you how to release the latissimus, serratus anterior, and pecs. Part 4 we are addressing tension in the trapezius and levator scapula

Also focus on 360 breathing and allowing the collarbones & shoulders to lift on the inhale. Comment BREATHE for the tutorial.

Follow along for the remaining techniques to relieve neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain, and improve your posture. You can’t always make it in to see a professional when you’re in pain, that’s why it’s important to have ways to find relief at home.

Part 3: save for later, try right now, and go save part 1 & 2 to relieve neck pain, shoulder pain, headaches, and improve your posture.

Next up are the pecs! Pectoralis minor and major act on the shoulder and when they get tight they can perpetuate pain in the upper body and forward rounding posture.

If you’ve had lymph nodes biopsied or removed in your armpit, I do not recommend this technique.

If you’ve tried massaging where it hurts with limited relief, try these techniques to release the lats, serratus anterior, pecs, and subscap. Also focus on 360 breathing and allowing the collarbones & shoulders to lift on the inhale. Comment BREATHE for the tutorial.

The foam roller and massage ball are my favorite tools for myofascial release and trigger point therapy

Part 2: save for later and try this after you warm up with part 1 to relive neck pain, shoulder pain, headaches, and improve your posture.

This is a more advanced technique and you must proceed slowly and gently. We aren’t trying to beat the muscle tissue up or force the body to do anything. We are facilitating by applying pressure and then sending the breath and awareness to the muscle so that it can release on its own.

If you’ve had lymph nodes biopsied or removed in your armpit, I do not recommend this technique.

Our breath is one of those processes that we don’t have to think about or control for it to happen but we CAN control or change it to have different effects on the mind and body.

There are many different styles of breathing techniques that have different effects. This is one of my favorite techniques because it trains the lungs while still being easy/accesible and aids in regulating the nervous system and the humming stimulates the vagus nerve, further helping the body and mind to relax and naturally find a state of homeostasis. Less forcing the body to do things, more breathing and facilitating the body’s natural self-healing state.

Many of us take very shallow breaths, hardly ever expanding the lungs to their capacity. This lack of movement in the ribcage can contribute to neck pain, shoulder pain, scapula dysfunction, upper back pain, mid back pain, headaches, TMJ, and more body aches. Lack of proper breathing can also affect our mental states, contributing to anxiety and depression.

The good news is, you can practice this technique immediately and see a benefit.

Focusing on belly breathing mainly affects the diaphragm and for some people it is a good cue, but for some people it can further displace pressure and cause weird breathing mechanics. If you like belly breathing, go for it, but also try this technique out. Taking 360 breath and focusing on expanding your lungs, naturally lifts the anterior chest, which helps the scapula to find their proper placement on the ribcage. Sometimes you’ll even feel the ribs adjust into place.

Tight muscles in your butt can contribute to back pain, hip pain, sciatica, and SI joint pain.

If a muscle is getting tight or developing trigger points and restricting movement, myofascial release and trigger point therapy are wonderful tools for releasing the muscle but then you have to consider why is the muscle getting tight in the first place. This can come from repetitive movements in your hobbies/job, sports, sitting too much, gait, injury (even from childhood), breathing/bracing patterns, stress, & unfelt emotions. Remember our bodies hold the stories of our lives and the state of our nervous system.

Follow along to learn techniques to relive pain at home and if your in north Indianapolis, you can request a session via my profile.

Stabilization, propulsion, impact absorption: the calves do so much to support us all day long. Many people have tension in the calves that can ripple down into the ankles & feet (plantar fasciitis, foot cramps, Achilles pain), up into the knee, or even all the way into the hips & lower back.

Everything is connected and by releasing tightness in the calves, you can support your whole body and even relieve knee pain, hip pain, and low back pain.

Releasing tight muscles is only part of the equation, you also have to consider why these muscles are tight in the first place: injury, gait, hobbies, lifestyle, shoes, etc. You can release the muscle for relief but if you keep doing the same things, the pain will probably come back. That’s why massage is best paired with strengthening & corrective exercises.
