Guess what--massage can help with all of these.

I may not be open tomorrow to honor this day, but it’s still worth drawing attention to. We small businesses matter! Consider going to a small, privately owned business like mine than a corporate business or even a franchise.

Okay, hugs might be a little unprofessional at my office. So instead I’ll just remind everyone that I do offer a veteran discount—$15 off my regular massage prices.

Tomorrow is National I Want You to Be Happy Day. Due to a client needing to reschedule, I have an opening tomorrow at 10:00 AM. So come get a massage. It’ll make you happy!

Any disease can be stressful. Rare diseases can be even worse, simply because people don’t understand them. I don’t shy away from rare diseases. Even if massage can’t help your physical condition, it can still help your mental health.

RARE DISEASE DAY USA Each year on the last day in February, Rare Disease Day brings awareness and education about rare diseases and the suffering they cause.

Massages aren’t just for physical pain. Muscles store memories. If you have something—be it a memory, an emotion, etc.—that you just can’t seem to let go, try a massage. As someone who has worked with many military veterans, I make sure my office is a safe space for coping.

When I first saw this, I thought, “Hm. Could work for massage therapy too.” But rest assured that in the case of my business, “hurting people” means “people who are in pain.” I do not necessarily love inflicting pain on people!

If being outside in this cold has you tucking your head into your coat like a turtle, make sure you schedule a massage. Otherwise you are liable to have some very achy neck and shoulder muscles from your “turtle imitation.”

We have entered the darkest part of winter. Yes, the days are slowly getting longer, but they are still plenty short. And now the Christmas lights have come down, which can make this time of year very depressing for some. If you find yourself suffering from SAD (seasonal affective disorder), do consider getting a massage.

For those of you wanting to make New Year’s resolutions, I would suggest regular massages. Just look at the various health benefits that come from regular massages. And “regular” does not necessarily mean “monthly.” For many people, monthly massages work well. But some people need to come in more often, like every two or three weeks. Others can go longer between massages, getting them every six to eight weeks. It all depends on what your body needs.

Last week I shared the difference between relaxation massage and therapeutic massage. This week let’s talk about the difference between therapeutic massage and medical massage. Honestly, there’s only one major difference. Therapeutic massage is typically initiated by the client. Medical massage is typically initiated by another medical professional. Both address physical or medical concerns. But “medical massage” is usually a term used for massages that have been prescribed by someone like a medical doctor or chiropractor. Such prescriptions are generally needed to get insurance to pay for the massage, though it’s still not guaranteed (as many insurance companies still do not recognize massage therapy as a medical field).
