✨Cupping massage isn’t just a trend — it’s a time-tested technique that helps release deep tension, improve circulation, and support your body’s natural healing.

✨At Somata, our Therapeutic Massage with Cupping uses gentle suction to lift the fascia and muscles, helping to ease stiffness, soreness, and stress. It’s especially helpful for tight backs, shoulders, necks, and areas holding chronic tension.💆🏼‍♀️

✨Many clients notice improved mobility, reduced muscle pain, and a sense of overall relaxation after just one session.

✨Client care starts with self-care✨

At Somata, our studio has always been about connection — not just the kind that happens through skilled hands, but the kind that comes from genuine care and presence.

This photo takes us back to a time when we couldn’t be hands-on with our clients, but we never stopped showing up for our community. We shared movement, breath, and stress-relief tips each day because caring for others begins with caring for ourselves.

That same philosophy continues to guide us today.
💆‍♀️ We’re a space for healing, recovery, and resilience — for our clients and our practitioners.
🌿 When we fill our own cups, we can show up fully for yours.

🌿 The Power of Collaboration in Care 🌿

At Somata, we believe healing happens best when skilled hands and open minds work together. 💫

Our team of massage therapists and chiropractor collaborate to help you move better, feel stronger, and live your best life — not just symptom-free, but truly well.

✨ Massage therapy helps release tension, restore mobility, and calm the nervous system.
✨ Chiropractic care helps realign the spine, improve function, and support lasting balance.

When these therapies work hand-in-hand, your body gets the comprehensive care it deserves — from muscle to joint, head to toe.

Because feeling your best isn’t just about one treatment… it’s about a team working together for you. 💚

Remember when “play” was the main event?🥋🏈⛹🏼‍♀️⚽️

For kids, sport isn't just about winning. It's a masterclass in resilience. They fall, they get up. They lose, they try again. They learn that discomfort is temporary and that movement is joy. This constant cycle of challenge and recovery builds incredibly resilient humans.

Then, we grow up. Play becomes a "hobby" and movement becomes a "workout." We sit more, we play less, and we start to fear the very discomfort that once made us stronger. That resilient spirit can get buried under stress, stiffness, and the belief that our bodies are just... breaking down.

But what if we could reconnect with that spirit?

The principles of resilience through movement still apply. Massage therapy and chiropractic care are powerful tools for adults to reclaim that foundation.

✅ They're like a "reset button" for your body's nervous system, much like rest was after a long day of play.
✅ They break down the physical tension that restricts movement and joy.
✅ They improve mobility, making it easier and more enjoyable to move your body—whether that's in the gym, on a trail, or even just playing with your kids in the backyard.

When we release the physical barriers, we rediscover the freedom of movement. And with that freedom, we can rediscover a little bit of play.

Your body is built to move, adapt, and recover. Let's help it do what it does best.

🍂Today marks the fall equinox, when there are about the same amount of daytime hours as there are night. Light and darkness are equal.

✨Balance.

🍂A great time to reflect on the balance on your life. Are you giving more to others than yourself? Most are...and we can help.

✨Selfcare is more about just giving back to yourself. It is about creating balance so that you can show up for the giving and honoring that you deserve it just as much.

📅 With a few more open spaces in the upcoming weeks as we transition a new massage therapist onto our team, now is the perfect time to make selfcare a priority.

Did you know??📣

Even 10 minutes of focused breathwork can lower stress hormones and improve circulation? 💨✨

➡️Try this: Find a quiet space to sit in a relaxed pose, shoulders down, jaw softened. Place your hands over your heart and inhale for 4 counts, hold for 4, exhale for 6. Repeat x 5.

Have kids?? Invite them to join and not only model the importance of selfcare, but they will learn how to create calm space in their own lives.

Your body and your mind will thank you. 💚
