New Blog Alert!

This weeks blog post is about the increasingly important nature of 'lifestyle medicine'. It's essentially asking the question, 'what are some of the known variables that are contributing to our experiences of pain - and how can we shift them to produce better results?' It's vitally important for those of us that struggle with chronic pain conditions, but also important for those who want to avoid pain in the future. Give it a read and let me know what you think!

New blog post up on the site!

This one is an important one as it addresses something that many of my clients experiencing chronic pain inevitably mention. That is, whether or not they should seek out an MRI for an explanation to their pain. The science is pretty clear on this one, and it's quite interesting! Give it a read if you're into this sort of nerdy stuff - or if you're someone who's considering taking this route.

Well it's official, I'm hosting another four week series on mindfulness meditation!

Times they are a changing, and I'm sure many of you in my community are feeling...well...a lot. With that, I feel that it's important that I bring forward this incredible practice that has provided me so much benefit these past five years.

Mindfulness as a practice is extraordinarily simple to understand yet fairly tricky to actually do. This is why it's traditionally learned in a student-teacher relationship. This course is designed both for beginners who have never meditated, as well as those who have been practicing for some time but could use some fresh inspiration. It combines a modern secular approach with ancient Buddhist wisdom - the same as it was taught to me through my teacher.

I'm confident that after these four weeks, you'll be able to commit to a long term practice if you wish to continue. At the very least, this space we co-create will serve as an opportunity to downregulate your nervous system, slow down for a minute, and catch your breath.

The best part of it is that it's only $100, which is very cheap considering the preciousness of the gem that I'm handing you. It's genuinely changed my life unlike anything else that I've done. Also have I mentioned that it's going to be a hybrid class? This means that you'll have the option of meeting with us in person or from the comfort of your own home with Zoom.

This will take place in Grand Rapids Michigan at the Eagle Park Wellness Collective on the corner of Leonard and the Beltline. Feel free to reach out to me through here or follow the link in the comments to register through my website! I hope to see you there!

Hey there, just wanted to let you all know that I released a new blog post today! This article is all about how we can get the most out of a massage therapy session. Not only does it cover some of the basics of interfacing with massage but it also goes into some deeper waters on the potential to utilize massage as a practice that helps us generate insights into our lives. Groovy! Link in the comments!

Hey friends, I have some exciting news!

I relocated my massage practice into a cozy office in the Eagle Park Wellness Collective of Grand Rapids, MI! My two and a half years spent at the Benji Salon and Spa was a great time for me to germinate my business but the time had come for me to branch out and find a space that reflects my values and energies a little more closely. The EPWC is a great coalition of holistic practitioners of all different stripes and it's pretty awesome to be joining such a diverse and talented group of folks.

With that said, this is a vulnerable place to put myself as I am no longer underneath the umbrella of another company. My client outreach is now limited to my individual efforts. So if you or anyone you know is in the market for some massage therapy, feel free to reach out to me through here and let's get something set up for the new year!

If you want to know more about what I do, there are plenty of blog posts that I've written over on my website (can be found down below) that go into great detail on my approach and philosophy. They're pretty solid reads if I do say so myself.

If you're not looking for any bodywork, sharing this post could also go a long way in ensuring someone in your network can find me! I'd be hugely appreciative and will send you a surplus of good vibes for the year ahead.

Either way, I hope this year brings you whatever it is that you're looking for in life.
