As summer begins to fade and give way to autumn, there’s magic in this in-between. The light softens, the air shifts, and we’re invited to pause.

What do you want to call into your life during this final stretch of 2025?

🌿 Relaxation?
🌼 Joy?
🕯️ Time for meditation and self-care?

The turning of seasons is the perfect reminder that we can shift too, gently, naturally, in our own rhythm.

Starting your session with a scalp and face massage that melts into great neck, chest, and shoulder work is one of my favorite ways to begin a massage.
Not only does it help to engage your parasympathetic nervous system right away, but we often forget how much tension we hold in this area.

This is so important for those of us who have trouble shutting our brains down to relax or are coming in after a particularly stressful day.

Scalp massage not only feels fabulous, it can be very nostalgic for some people and gently targeting those tiny suboccipital muscles at the base of your skull can go a long way to stop a headache in its tracks.

Not only can releasing the jaw feel great for those with TMJ, but it can set the tone for allowing muscles in the rest of our body to begin to relax.

The gentle weight of an amethyst eye mask helps calm the nervous system, soothing tired eyes, quieting busy thoughts, and inviting the body into deep relaxation.

Paired with an amazing scalp and face massage, it's always my favorite way to start a massage.

This is your reminder to take a deep breath and release the tension you are holding in your jaw.

Looking over my calendar and feeling genuinely excited for every single client I get to work with is one of the greatest blessings in my business.

It is a daily reminder that I am in the right place. The work, the challenges, and the effort of owning a small business are always worth it.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to each of you who trusts me with your care. It means everything.

Every client who walks through my door with fibromyalgia experiences it differently.

Fibromyalgia is a nervous system condition, and the nervous system affects everything — pain, digestion, sleep, energy, mood, and more. No two bodies will ever tell the same story.

That is why your intake matters so much.

I may be the expert in massage, but you are the expert on your body. What you share with me is essential for creating the most supportive and effective treatment plan.

Each session is customized using a variety of techniques and tools tailored to your unique needs.
Some clients need the room cooler than usual. Some feel better with a heavy blanket and no music. Others need extra gentle work. And some benefit most from grounding techniques that help calm the nervous system.

Your care should never be one size fits all.
Your body deserves better, and I am here to listen.

If you have a loved one with fibromyalgia, remember the best thing you can do is to believe them and help create an environment in which they feel safe and calm as much as possible.
Symptoms don't just vary by the person. They can change on a daily basis as well.
