Healing Intentions Massage Therapy-Meaghen Hoffus

Massage Therapy; there is always more to learn.

Registered Massage Therapist. I strive to provide thorough, optimal services. I specialize in pregnancy massage, induction massage, sports massage, chronic injury massage, cupping therapy, gua sha and hot stone massage.

The great thing about being a Massage Therapist is that everyday is a new learning opportunity. Whether it be a new article I read, a new technique, a new course or simply learning something new about my client. I am always absorbing information, storing it and saving it for future use or reference. I was fortunate enough to be able to finally take my cupping course this week. After time away from the health industry to raise my babies, I was a bit behind on the times when I came back. I was skeptical of cupping therapy and figured it was just the latest fad. I brushed it off and decided I wouldn’t take the course and stick to the basics. Provide great quality massage with my hands. After a year back in the business I noticed my hands were taking the toll from many deep tissue massages in a day. Thats when I started to do my research on cupping therapy and its benefits. After reading the information I was intrigued and very interested to see what the course could offer me. I am very happy to report that the benefits for clients and massage therapists is amazing. As massage therapists we get to save our hands and extend the longevity of our careers by incorporating the cups to do the heavy lifting. 5 minutes of cupping is equivalent to 30 minutes of a deep tissue massage. Wow! The list of benefits is endless, fascia release, adhesion release, softening cellulite, firming skin, PNF, stretching and pain and tension relief. I am thrilled I took this course and very excited to add cupping to my everyday practice. In the words of my wonderful grandma; learn something new everyday always learning something new! Wisdom is always knocking and we need to answer and accept! (My grammar police didn’t proof read this and “de-fluff it”, my grammar is not my strong suit) My sister may cringe at the sight of my errors lol sorry!
