❄️ Winter Newsletter Recap ❄️

As we move through the heart of winter (and on Christmas Day for many), I wanted to share a few gentle reminders from my recent Winter Newsletter — along with warm holiday wishes.

Winter is a season for slowing down, supporting your nervous system, and caring for your body with intention. A few simple ways to do that:

✨ Keep skin nourished with dry brushing + a lightweight oil (like Flo Aromatherapy’s Revive)

💧 Stay hydrated (warm, cozy drinks absolutely count — Genuine Tea’s Cream of Earl Grey is a favourite!)

🚶‍♀️ Choose gentle movement to support circulation and ease stiffness

🧘‍♀️ Take a few quiet minutes for breathing or meditation

✨ A few important studio updates:
• Starting January 1, 2026, all clients will be asked to complete an updated health history form, as several studio policies have changed. I appreciate your understanding — these updates help ensure your sessions remain safe, supportive, and effective.

• The studio will be closed December 31 – January 4. December 29 & 30 are currently full; you’re welcome to add yourself to the waitlist in case of cancellations.

• Winter Self-Care Special: Enjoy $5 off each session booked by December 31 for appointments between January 1–February 28.
Code: WinterWell26

💛 Thank you
As the year comes to a close, I want to sincerely thank you for your trust, kindness, and continued support of my small business. Whether you’ve been with me for years or joined me more recently, being part of your care is something I don’t take lightly. Your support allows me to continue offering thoughtful, intentional work, and to show up fully for each session — I’m deeply grateful for every one of you.

Wishing you a peaceful holiday season and a gentle, supported start to the new year. I look forward to continuing to care for you through the winter months 🤍

🌿✨ Client Spotlight & Heartfelt Thanks ✨🌿

I am so grateful for clients like Sarah and for every single person who chooses Ameliorating Touch for their care.

Your trust means the world to me, and I deeply appreciate not only booking sessions but also taking the time to share your experiences through reviews or recommendations.

Every referral to friends and family who you believe would benefit from care is an incredible vote of confidence, and it truly helps my business grow in such a meaningful way.

Thank you for allowing me the privilege of supporting your wellness — your trust, loyalty, and thoughtfulness never go unnoticed. 💜

🌿✨ Massage Etiquette: Respecting Each Other’s Time ✨🌿

Every appointment is carefully reserved just for you. I prepare the space, adjust the schedule, and set aside the time to focus fully on your care. When sessions are changed late, cancelled at the last minute, or missed without notice, that time often can’t be filled by another client who may have been waiting for support.

💜 That’s why a cancellation fee is in place—it isn’t meant as a penalty, but rather as a way to honor the time, preparation, and care that goes into each appointment. It also helps keep the schedule fair and accessible for everyone.

I understand that life happens—illnesses, emergencies, and unexpected events come up. If something unavoidable arises, please reach out as soon as you’re able so we can discuss options. The more notice you can give for any changes, the easier it is to adjust and accommodate others who may need care.

Your thoughtfulness in booking, arriving on time, and communicating when plans change allows me to keep offering a calm, consistent space for wellness.

Thank you for respecting this shared commitment—it truly makes a difference, not only for me but also for the community of clients who rely on this care. 🌸

🍂✨ Thankful for This Community ✨🍂

As I settle into my seventh month at District Studios, I just want to take a moment to thank each and every one of you who has supported me, booked in, referred a friend, or shared kind words along the way. Your trust and encouragement have truly made these first months amazing. 💜

November is a wonderful time to reset before the busy holiday season — and I’d love to see my schedule fill with familiar faces (and new ones too!). If you’ve been meaning to book in, now’s the perfect time to secure your spot and make some space for yourself. 🌿

💆‍♀️ A few notes:
🌙 I’ve added some extended Tuesday evening hours to help accommodate more schedules this month.
🎃 And if you’re in on October 31, there just might be a little treat waiting for you! 😉

Thank you again for helping make Ameliorating Touch feel so at home here at District Studios — I’m so grateful for this wonderful community and can’t wait to see you soon.
