Serein Massage and Sound Sanctuary

11/05/2024

Wow, are eight lucky people in for a TREAT!!! Full moon meditations are thought more powerful because during this time the energy of the earth is amplified: heightening emotions, intuition, and sensitivity, enhancing your meditative experience.

🌕 The full moon represents a phase of completion and fulfillment. It's an ideal time for cleansing, letting go, and making space for new emotions.

🌕 Meditating under the full moon strengthens your bond with nature and reminds us of life's cycles. This connection can deepen our sense of grounding, rhythm, and balance.

🌕 The light of the full moon is thought to illuminate things that are hidden, making it an ideal time for reflection and clarity.

🌕 Many people gather for full moon meditations, fostering a sense of unity. Being a part of a collective experience under the full moon can amplify individual intentions and make the practice feel more powerful.

After the meditation and sound bath, there will be time for journaling and a community sharing of organic herbal tea and conversation.

To save your spot, you must RSVP to Lana (via DM here or 509.822.1840 and prepay your $30 for your spot). Due to limited space in the studio, we can't accommodate walk-ins.

I haven't been posting much on Facebook, I know. Most of my content is on Instagram....you can follow me there .sanctuary 🫶

But in the meantime, what about this gorgeous cupping client??? I absolutely love doing cupping therapy and am a big fan of this modality! Generally, when someone feels like they have sore, tight muscles, it is your fascia, the connective tissue between your skin and muscles that is the issue. The "knots" you feel are bound up fascia that is adhered to your muscles, not the actual muscle itself. Massage helps stretch out and release the fascia, but cupping adds another healing component. A tool is used with the cups to provide a vacuum inside, which in turn pulls the fascia up and away from the muscles. This brings old stagnant fluid, blood, toxins, cellular debris, etc. closer to the surface so your lymphatic system can clear it out and gives space to bring in fresh blood, oxygen, and nutrients to your muscles, which as a result is very healing! And most people actually like the way this therapy feels. I offer this service as an add-on to my standard Swedish massage, you can find it listed in my Services at www.massagebook.com/biz/serein-llc

You guys!!!! Look at this gorgeous client of mine receiving cupping therapy! First, can we just give a nod to that back tattoo!!! This beauty is , owner of , and one bada$$ tattoo artist...but she spends her days sitting down and bent over clients in the same position for hours and hours, so no need to point out what her back and shoulders must feel like!

Cupping is an amazing therapy that helps pull your tight fascia up and away from where it is binding to your muscles, causing soreness and stiffness. It pulls the old stagnant blood, fluids and cellular waste up towards your skin so your body can flush it out and allows space for fresh blood, oxygen and nutrients to move into your muscles to create healing. It's brilliant!

When you find "knots" in your muscles, they are really fascia that is bound up from lack of movement and stretching, trauma, and/or dehydration (very common). They are adhesions, not actual knots in your muscles. Massage helps stretch the fascia, but myofascial release is especially excellent for treating these conditions!

If you are interested in learning more about cupping, just DM me...I am always happy to talk about this therapy! Or you can book a cupping session at the link in my bio. We all have tight sore muscles due to tight fascia, so cupping is good (and safe!) for anyone! It's one of my favorite therapies that I offer 🖤

Do you know why I became a massage therapist? Anxiety. I used to have massive anxiety that would to show up with panic attacks and every other unpleasant symptom. I would seek out spas just so I could experience the pinnacle of a calm space: low lighting, aromatherapy, zen music, slow healing touch. I used to think massage therapists must be the happiest people on earth to get to spend their days in an environment like that. I wasn't wrong. My life is a dream...I love what I do!!!

Relaxation massage is one of the greatest gifts I can give people who suffer from anxiety, panic attacks, sensory issues, PTSD, ADHD, OCD, autism and other neurodivergent patterns. I get you. I see you. You are safe with me. I have created a space JUST FOR YOU. And for me. If you are neurodivergent and want to find a place of calm relaxation for that busy brain, I invite you to my studio. I will let you choose music, scents or no scent, warmer or cooler, lighter or dimmer...

I am sensitive to your needs and body responses. You can communicate with me, and I will listen and support you. Because I get it. I panicked in a mud wrap one time and had them pull foil off me at the speed of light, and I had to go pace in the hallway! All this to say, "I gotchu."

Massage is SO helpful and SO healthy for anxious brains. It reduces cortisol and calms your body, mind and senses. Feel free to DM me with questions, and you can book a session at the link in my bio. I'll see you on the table friends!

🌿 Enhance Your Wellness Journey with Expert Manual Lymphatic Drainage 🌿

If you’re using a GLP-1 agonist for weight management or blood sugar control, incorporating Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) into your routine can offer incredible benefits! As your body sheds fat, toxins stored in those fat cells are released into your system. MLD, performed by a Certified Lymphatic Therapist from the Academy of Lymphatic Studies, supports your body’s natural detoxification process by stimulating the lymphatic system, helping to clear these toxins more effectively.

✨ Why MLD is Essential:

Reduces Swelling: GLP-1 agonists can sometimes lead to fluid retention. MLD helps reduce this by encouraging the movement of lymph fluid, reducing bloating and swelling.

Clears Toxins: When fat cells melt away, they release stored toxins into your system. MLD aids in flushing these toxins out, promoting a cleaner and healthier body.

Boosts Immune Function: By promoting the flow of lymph, MLD enhances your immune system, helping your body manage inflammation, minimize side effects and stay healthy.

Improves Skin Health: MLD helps remove toxins from the body, leading to clearer, more vibrant skin—a perfect complement to your wellness journey.

Enhances Relaxation: The gentle, rhythmic strokes of MLD not only detoxify but also provide deep relaxation, reducing stress and promoting overall well-being. This is especially helpful if you are experiencing side effects.

As a Certified Lymphatic Therapist, I’m dedicated to providing you with expert care tailored to your unique needs. Whether you’re looking to enhance your results or simply want to feel your best, MLD is a powerful addition to your self-care routine.

Book your session at Serein today and give your lymphatic system the boost it needs! 💆‍♀️✨
