HIDDEN GEMS! This huge study (24,000 people in a 2022 National Health Interview Survey) shows how massage is "widely used", "mainstream therapeutic modailty" & "merits wider integration into the community of Healthcare professionals". In short: massage is healthcare.

Quote from Jeff Levin, Ph.D., M.P.H., University Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health.

"What our study shows is that it’s probably not helpful any longer to label massage as an ‘alternative’ therapy, with all of the marginality that the term conveys,” Levin said. “Licensed massage therapists ought to be respected as mainstream practitioners, whose profession provides a therapeutic approach not just to address pain and functional challenges but to foster wellness and overall well-being, physical and emotional. Everyone can benefit from working with a skilled massage therapist. They’re the hidden gems in the healthcare system.”

Interesting findings from 2019 showing Tylenol decreases not just pain but also a person's empathy. Cat photo for the algorithm https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6455058/

From the study:
"These findings suggest that (1) acetaminophen reduces affective reactivity to other people’s positive experiences and (2) the experience of physical pain and positive empathy may have a more similar neurochemical basis than previously assumed. Because the experience of positive empathy is related to prosocial behavior, our findings also raise questions about the societal impact of excessive acetaminophen consumption."

This 2023 study shows for women "intake of dark chocolate increased peak pain intensity by 2.1%" ... for men, it reduces pain. [The study neglected to work with nonbinary people and did not indicate participant trans status.] Every week, I'm chatting with clients detailing their journey through pain reduction strategies. Today's conversation included FODMAP diet, removal of carbonated drinks, and limiting cacao / chocolate. I'll post the study link in comment section.

A long time regular client sent over this image today. And I realized I haven't posted anything since the ice event. So here is an update:
Yesterday, a client said, "My coworkers and I were talking about you. Apparently, we all go to you. You're the best." A different client said, "You give the best scalp massage. I've never experienced anything like that before." And someone else yesterday said, "I think of you as a massage goddess."
... I couldn't and dare not make this up 😅

I don't put any mystery into my schedule. It stays Wednesday through Sunday, viewable any time at caringportland.janeapp.com. Put a card on file to reserve, complete the online intake, and it's that simple. Don't see the time you need? Use the waitlist feature & if something opens up, you'll receive an alert.

See you then, I guess.
