Adding in a new tool to my toolbox! ✨

I recently heard it said that the day you stop learning is the day before you stop teaching. At our clinic we always strive to be learning for our own growth and also to equip each of you with more resources for your health.

You may be be experiencing a new approach that I am using in my massage sessions. Heart Math is scientific approach to address stress in the physical body and to promote calmness, tension and pain relief, nervous system regulation, and heart/body connection. This is an addition to what I already do and am excited to bring more resources to you that you can use in your daily life!

New post on symptoms!

What do you do when old symptoms come back?
My honest tendency is to think that I am losing the progress I have made or that I have failed. I can feel helpless and forget the things I can do to help support myself…And we see this with patients as well. But the truth is we have the opportunity to use the resources that we have learned which builds resiliency. Here are a few things you can do when you are feeling familiar physical or emotional symptoms.
-Remind yourself that you have had this before and have made it through!
-Reach out to a friend or professional for support
-Book a treatment to address the symptoms in your body
-Intentionally breathe- this can help to relieve tension, pain, and anxiety in the body
-Move your body- a few minutes of walking or movement while feeling the sun on your face can do wonders!

We aren’t stuck…There are many resources we have at our fingertips to help support our body!

After a massage or manual osteopathic appointment at our clinic, your body is adjusting and processing. You could notice shifts in the body for days after. Here are a few things you can do to support your body after the treatment!
-Drink a little extra water
-Rest- your body will likely need rest in order to continue the work from the treatment!
-Integrating the movement or exercise shown in the session. This will also add to what the treatment did.
-Epson salts bath- helping to ease tension or soreness

It is the simple things after a session that can be a big difference for making progress!

It is difficult to put into words the emotions that I have felt and witnessed this past weekend. I know some have lost homes due to the fires and some are fighting fires today. It has been incredible to see our community come together and support each other as friends and neighbors.
Overall as a collective, there is a heaviness, uncertainty, and overwhelm. There is a lyric of a song that comes as a prayer to me, “Father would You hold my hand”.
I pray for that for each of us and feel that our hearts are tied together at this time. Here is a gentle reminder that as you read this, take a moment to breathe and let your body settle into that breath. We will be posting some tools this week to support the nervous system.
Please reach out if you need support this week… our clinic is here for you.

New post!

Massage can play an integral role in health in many seasons of life, including pregnancy! In my massage therapy practise I see and treat clients in all stages of their pregnancy. I focus on not making big changes to the body but supporting the body through those big changes and addressing the compensating pain or stiffness that can come as pregnancy progresses. Are you looking for relief in your body, an ease in tension and movements that will support you not only in pregnancy but after? message/call us at (780) 835-8406 if you have questions or to make an appointment.
