✺ my heart is filled with so much gratitude + appreciation for those who took the time to vote for 𝕭𝖑𝖆𝖈𝖐 𝕸𝖔𝖔𝖓 𝕳𝖆𝖚𝖘 for the Reflexology + Massage categories

✳︎ I wasn't expecting anything in the massage category due to the fact it is my first year practicing, and there are dozens of experienced + talented RMTs to vote for — so I am beyond stoked about the bronze award!

✺ thank you for trusting me with your care for another year, whether it's seeing me for reflexology or massage therapy — I appreciate you!

🏅 Reflexology 2026
🥉 Massage 2026

✢ July 31st marks my 𝖔𝖓𝖊 𝖞𝖊𝖆𝖗 𝖆𝖓𝖓𝖎𝖛𝖊𝖗𝖘𝖆𝖗𝖞 of being a registered massage therapist (time is a wild thing + it goes by so quickly)

✳︎ this time last year I was in London + Toronto stressing about passing my board exams — since then, I've successfully started my own private practice and have had the privilege to treat so many of you!

✢ with the growth + experience I've gained over the year, especially seeing the fiscal aspect of running my own practice, I've made a difficult but necessary decision to increase some of my service prices starting 𝕬𝖚𝖌𝖚𝖘𝖙 1𝖘𝖙

✳︎ this increase will allow me to explore education in different modalities that I've been interested in to better serve you, replenish linens, towels, oils, creams, cleaning supplies, refreshments + potentially invest in a new table when the time comes

✳︎ as massage therapists, we encounter the good to the bad + everything in between that people are going through. From pregnancy announcements, loss, births, deaths, diagnoses, new homes, promotions, first steps, last breaths, job losses, relationship losses, first dates, to ordinary mundane days + stresses

✢ intuitive + empathetic practitioners create the space for clients to 𝖇𝖗𝖊𝖆𝖙𝖍𝖊 + just be

✳︎ sometimes we take things on unknowingly + need implement non-negotiable boundaries with our self-care and physical health outside of the treatment room, allowing us to show up even better for those who show up on our tables

✢ here are some ways to tend to yourself as the person who tends to others:

↠ book yourself in for services when you can:
‣ weekly treatments may not be realistic for most, but maybe find something seasonally to do
‣ try a blend of manual work + energetic work to help better balance yourself

↠ romanticize your off days:
‣ pivot the urge to mindlessly scroll when you have down time
‣ write out what your ideal free day looks like + see if you can do 1 or 2 realistic things on that list

↠ enjoyable movement:
‣ whether it's walking, weekly pilates or cycling classes, a yoga practice — finding the time to move is essential for massage therapists
‣ adding heavy weight-training days a few times a week will help strengthen our bodies which will increase the longevity in our careers

↠ lean into community:
‣ reach out to other massage therapists, friends, family + talk about any struggles you may be experiencing
‣ 𝖌𝖔 𝖙𝖔 𝖙𝖍𝖊𝖗𝖆𝖕𝖞

↠ go touch grass:
‣ we are cooped up in dark quiet rooms for most of our days, take advantage of the good weather when you can

✳︎ I've been working on implementing these things into my own self-tending lately with walking / gym 2-3x a week, increasing my water intake, booking in regular massages, reading more, and this girl is going back to therapy next month✨. I also have a weekend planned coming up that will be filled with breakfasts in bed, buying a bouquet of flowers, gardening + journaling in a coffee shop all by myself

✢ 𝖍𝖔𝖜 𝖉𝖔 𝖞𝖔𝖚 𝖙𝖊𝖓𝖉 𝖙𝖔 𝖞𝖔𝖚𝖗𝖘𝖊𝖑𝖋?

✳︎ if you are a woman who is starved for intentional, platonic touch + bodywork — booking yourself in for regular massage appointments may just be what you + your body needs.

✢ generally speaking, women who are in hetero-normative relationships tend to speak about the frustrations of asking their partners for a massage.

✳︎ From worrying about the additional "expectations" for asking, the wandering hands, the one-handed back rubs, to the tired thumbs + hands after 5 minutes of massaging — your nervous system becomes activated, you feel irritated + worse than before.

✢ massage therapists require extensive schooling, hundreds of hours of clinical hands-on practice + need to successfully pass multiple board exams to become registered. We are trained to thoroughly + consensually tend to your musculoskeletal + nervous system ― we are here to support you.

✳︎ happy spring equinox + ostara, friends!

⟐ today marks a balance of light + dark, many will feel a shift in energy as mother nature begins her slow awakening

⟐ here are some of my favourite ways to celebrate:
・go outside + notice new life – what perennials are popping up already? do you see any buds on the trees? how many different birds to you hear?
• open the windows + let the fresh air flow through your home
• shake out + lay out your rugs outside
• bake breads + treats
• craft + indulge in creativity
• journal about what you're grateful for + what you're hoping to learn this season

⟐ I was lucky enough to have this day off to be able to sleep in with my partner, have a slow morning, tackle doing some laundry, chip away at my taxes, enjoy slow sips of coffee, intentionally light a few candles, all while having the blinds + windows open to watch the birds on our feeder

⟐ if you're looking for ways to tend + ground yourself this season, my foot reflexology treatment is a modality that you may be looking for — if you're curious about it you can learn more by visiting the link in bio, or send me a message!
