July 11th is World Massage Day so as I’m so fond of reminding folks…

Massage therapy is more than relaxation — it’s clinically shown to:

•Reduce muscle pain and tension
•Lower stress hormones and anxiety
•Improve circulation and immune function
•Support recovery from injury
•Enhance sleep quality and overall wellbeing

Consider making massage part of your health routine — your body and mind will benefit measurably. 💆🏼‍♂️👍🏻❤️

Wow, what a fulfilling day at the 2025 Health & Wellness Fair in Oak Park today. All told, I was able to discuss massage treatment options with about 30 different people and provide massage treatments to a dozen of those. Surprisingly good numbers, considering the wide scope of other health vendors in attendance and the fact it was only 3 hours long.

Many thanks to Darien Marion-Burton, the Oak Park - River Forest (OPRF) Chamber of Commerce and the Park District of Oak Park for their outstanding dedication and collaboration in bringing today’s Fair to life. Meticulous planning, tireless effort, and commitment to the community ensured a memorable and impactful event for everyone. 👍🏻❤️
