✨ Kindness deserves to be honored.
Starting in August, I made a quiet vow: to offer a free massage to anyone who truly moved me with their kindness and authenticity. Today, I met someone who did just that.
My granddaughter had a haircut appointment with Ashley McGuire. While I waited in the car for a bit, I eventually stepped inside and was greeted by a friendly gentleman who mentioned he was disabled. He was pleasant, and his presence added a gentle hum of humanity to the space.
But what truly caught my attention was Ashley. As she worked, her smile radiated something rare—genuine warmth. Even while answering the gentleman’s questions, her energy remained calm, attuned, and deeply empathetic. She checked in with my granddaughter throughout the haircut, asking about the length, the shape, making sure she felt seen and heard. And then, with such grace, she told her: “If you ever style your hair and it doesn’t feel right, just reach out—I’ll fix it for free.”
That kind of care isn’t taught. It’s soul-deep.
So I asked Ashley if she’d ever had a massage before. She said yes. I smiled and said, “Wonderful. I’m a massage therapist, and I’d love to offer you a free massage in September—because you have such a beautiful soul. Just contact the The Wellness Cottage crystals and schedule your appointment”
Thank you, Ashley. Keep shining that radiant smile and spreading your kindness like glitter—it sticks to hearts in the best way. 🌟

Maybe Potential Client - "Since you are in a "Woowoo shop, does that mean yur massages are?"

NY State Licensed Massage Therapist, Patti - I have my massage practice at the Wellness Cottage shop, a Metaphysical shop. I understand that many people carry assumptions or discomfort around metaphysical spaces, often rooted in unfamiliarity, fear of judgment, or spiritual misalignment. As a NY licensed Massage Therapist occupying space there, gives me a beautiful opportunity to gently bridge that gap. I would like people to feel safe, curious, and open when they walk into our metaphysical space.

You don’t have to believe in crystals.
You don’t have to know what an altar is.
You don't have to know what reading your cards are.
You don't have to know what pendulum reading is.
You don’t have to be spiritual, mystical, or anything other than tired.

My massage room lives inside a metaphysical shop, yes—
but it’s really a sanctuary for rest.
For breath.
For letting go.
If you’ve never had a massage…
If you’ve felt unsure, guarded, or afraid to be seen…
This space was made for you.
No pressure. No performance.
Just a soft table, warm hands, and a quiet place to come back to yourself.
Come as you are.
Leave a little lighter.

By the way - Hope to see you soon!
with love and peace,
Patti-Jo

****I just have to add this because, because I can -
When you walk in, you’ll be greeted—not with incense and chanting (Unless you want that)—but with warmth.

Alternating Hot & Cold for Circulatory Boost

By using hot and cold compresses in succession, you enhance circulation:

- Heat opens up vessels, delivering fresh, nutrient-rich blood.

- Cold draws it away, flushing out waste and stagnant fluids.

Think of it like a sponge being soaked and squeezed—your body receives renewal with each.

The Healing Power of Contrast Therapy

Alternating warm and cool—an elemental dance to restore the body and uplift the spirit.

Muscle Recovery & Release
By gently expanding and contracting blood vessels, contrast therapy stimulates circulation and flushes out metabolic waste like lactic acid. This helps muscles recover more quickly from soreness and fatigue—especially after movement or exertion.

Enhanced Blood Flow
The rhythmic shift between hot and cold creates a natural pumping effect, encouraging healthy blood flow. This brings oxygen and nutrients to tissue cells while accelerating healing throughout the body.

Calming Inflammation
Cold application helps reduce inflammation and swelling by slowing metabolic activity and constricting vessels. This soothing effect eases pain and supports quicker recovery from minor injuries or flare-ups.

Immune System Support
Regular cold exposure within contrast therapy may boost immunity by increasing white blood cell production and helping the body respond to invaders more efficiently.

Gentle Pain Relief
Heat relaxes tense muscles and reduces stiffness; cold numbs sharp discomfort. Together, they act as a natural pain-relieving pair—calming spasms and inviting comfort.

Skin & Hair Vitality
Improved surface circulation brings nutrients to the skin and scalp, encouraging healthy cell repair and regeneration. Over time, this can enhance tone, texture, and overall vibrancy.

Cardiovascular Resilience (my favorite)
The alternating temperatures strengthen vascular tone and elasticity. With consistent practice, contrast therapy may support heart health, lower blood pressure, and reduce risk of cardiovascular concerns.

*******Practical Considerations & Gentle Safeguards*******

Honoring the body’s wisdom through mindful contrast therapy!

When weaving contrast therapy into your wellness rhythm, begin with care and presence. Start slowly, allowing the body to guide the pace as it adapts to the alternating warmth and coolness. Pause often. Listen inward.

- Those with heart conditions or other health sensitivities should consult a trusted healthcare provider before beginning.

- Ensure you are well-hydrated and avoid extremes of temperature that may cause discomfort or strain.

- Let each shift in temperature be an invitation—not a challenge—offering the body relief and renewal, not resistance.

Safety is the sacred container. Within it, healing unfolds.

Potential Client - "I see that their is not a price for oncology massage on your website. Can you let me know how much it is, asking for my friend, thank you"

Me - Your initial visit is free and will be dedicated to reviewing your health history, discussing your goals, and addressing payment details. If possible, please bring a doctor's note at this time confirming that you are cleared to receive oncology massage, as this will help streamline your first session. I also encourage you to arrive with an open heart and mind.

Businesses often turn human connection into a transaction—but that’s not my philosophy. Authenticity is at the core of everything I do, because real healing isn’t about following a script—it’s about trust, intuition, and presence.

I refuse to treat wellness like a numbers game. Instead, I focus on creating meaningful, personalized sessions where each client feels seen, heard, and valued. There are no quotas to meet, no rigid protocols—just genuine care designed to support people as they navigate their own healing journey.

True wellness isn’t something you upsell. It’s something you cultivate—with compassion, integrity, and a commitment to doing the work that truly matters.

What is an Abdominal Massage?
A gentle yet effective technique that involves applying light pressure and rhythmic strokes to the abdomen, targeting both the muscles and internal organs. This practice is widely used to ease physical discomfort and enhance overall well-being.

What is the Purpose of Abdominal Massage?
The primary aim of abdominal massage is to support digestive function and relieve muscle tension in the abdominal area. It is often used to:
📍Improve digestion and alleviate issues like bloating and constipation
📍Reduce abdominal pain and discomfort
📍Encourage relaxation and promote a sense of balance
By stimulating circulation and easing tension, abdominal massage serves as a natural and holistic way to support digestive health and overall relaxation.

Not only beneficial for physical health but also for mental and emotional well-being. The gentle, soothing nature of the massage promotes relaxation, helps relieve anxiety, and fosters a deep sense of calm, which can positively affect both body and mind.

Are you ready to book your session?

Potential Client - "I have medical issues and I do benefit from massages. I would like to come more often, but it would be a financial hardship."

**Talking Finances and Massage: Finding a Solution**

Many people find it easier to discuss awkward moments than financial struggles, but if cost is a concern, there are ways to continue treatment without straining your budget.

Start by checking with your employer or insurance provider—massage therapy is often covered, though many policyholders don’t realize it. Coverage varies widely and may include full or partial payment, limits on the number of visits, or requirements such as a doctor’s referral.

No insurance coverage? You still have options. Rather than giving up massage entirely, consider shorter sessions or speak with me about flexible arrangements.

Above all, communication is key. If massage is important to you, have an open conversation with me — I may be able to offer solutions that work for both of us.
