Natural Therapeutics

Was blessed to have coffee with and .collective on Monday. Thankful that these ladies share a heart and passion that goes beyond personal success.

One thing I’ve always believed about the massage industry is that there should be more collaboration and community. Unfortunately, there can sometimes be an underlying mindset of competition and scarcity…. And that’s 💩.

There is more than enough room for all of us to succeed. Massage is incredibly subjective and deeply personal. Two therapists could attend the same school and perform the exact same techniques, yet the experience would still be completely different. Each therapist brings their own energy, intuition, heart, and presence into their work, and that matters just as much as the technique itself.

With Courtney’s help, I’ve created a Facebook group for local Licensed Massage Therapists to connect, support one another, and openly discuss the realities of this field… the wins, the struggles, what’s been working, what hasn’t, business tips, questions, continuing education, and more.

One of my biggest goals for this group is to build a resource database of local therapists and their specialties/training. That way, if a client is looking for something specific like MLD, prenatal massage, couples massage, or another specialty, we can confidently refer them to the right person.

I also want this to be a safe space where service providers can support and protect one another by sharing concerns about potentially unsafe interactions or experiences.

If you’re a Licensed Massage Therapist and this sounds like something you’d love to be part of, we’d be so happy to have you join us. Genuine connection, authenticity, support, and community are the heart of this group.

We’re not here to compete. We’re here to help everyone grow together. 🤍

DM me for the invite. I can’t wait to connect!

Some days it just be like that….

Trying to give a condensed anatomy and physiology lesson to explain why we need to work not just the areas in pain but the other muscles involved, makes me question whether I actually even know English.

My brain goes 100mph and wants to really nerd out and explain everything because it’s fascinating… but the result is we both end up confused. 😂😅

Thank you for trusting me in these situations.

It’s spring time in the studio!

Extra cozy vibes brought to you by warm blankets, heat packs, and hot towels.
You just won’t want to leave.

🤷‍♀️ I don’t make the rules…

I really do understand how hard it is to pre-book. Who knows what next week will bring??

BUT future you will be SO thankful you pre-booked when your appointment day arrives.

January books are open now. Link in my bio.

Reason number 5,000,000,000 why my hair stays up ALL the time.

1. My studio is a judgement free zone!
…..
2. This conversation did not take place in my studio…

I was too stunned to speak. I was brand new to massage and was teaching a class on the importance of strengthening and stretching to a group of runners. I tried to clarify what he meant but he literally believed he had NO hamstrings. He told me a doctor removed them…..
needless to say I ended the class because I truly had no idea where to go from there.

7 years later one of my best clients tells me that class was how she found me and became a client. 💕 she was just as shook as I was about the missing hamstrings! 😂
