Rooted in Wellness

Therapeutic massage
Cash & credit cards accepted Welcome, we're happy you're here! There are so many benefits to therapeutic massage! Massage is for every BODY!

A space for the community to relax, restore and reduce muscle tension through therapeutic massage. Whether you want to relax, work on tension & stress relief, pain reduction, joint mobility and many other benefits - we are here to help. We schedule our sessions by time preference. You get the full amount of hands on work scheduled. Through the health intake form and our discussion with you at the beginning of your appointment, we assess and use that knowledge to give you the best treatment at that time. We combine our continuing education knowledge (specialties) in to your session, rather than choosing add-ons, as we find that can get confusing for clients and we may have a technique that would benefit your health. Pregnancy massage is the only other option besides the time preferences and is available with Karen, as she has specific knowledge and setup for this. To schedule an appointment - please click Book Now, tap our link or visit the website. We are located at 937 Beaver Grade Rd. #5 in the Gabriel Professional Building at the top of the stairs. There is a ramp if you'd like to avoid the stairs to the left of the building at the higher point of the parking lot (in front of Body Beautiful). Looking forward to seeing you soon! Help your body, help you!

Our nervous systems are designed to move between activity & rest, but modern like keeps many of us stuck in “go mode”. Work stress, constant notifications, poor sleep, and busy schedules can quietly keep the body in a low level stress response. This makes it harder to truly relax & recharge!

When your nervous system calms down, your body can finally shift into repair mode. Here’s what that can look like:
>> when the body moves out of stress mode, muscles soften, breathing slows, and the body is able to settle into more restorative sleep.
>> a calm nervous system allows tight muscles to release easily, which can help reduce chronic tension in areas like the neck, shoulders & back.
>> your body’s “rest & digest” state supports healthy digestion, hormone balance & overall recovery.

Massage helps gently guide the body back into this restorative state. Giving your nervous system the reset it’s been asking for!

Go ahead and form that alliance 😊

Ever rubbed the top of your shoulders after a long day? That’s your trapezius muscle asking for attention.

The trapezius (or traps) is a large, kite-shaped muscle that runs from the base of your skull, down your neck, across your shoulders and into your mid back. It plays a big role in supporting your neck, stabilizing your shoulders and helping you move your arms.

What happens when it’s tight? You might feel neck stiffness, shoulder tension, headaches that start at the base of the skull, or that constant urge to shrug your shoulders.

What if it’s weak? Weak traps can lead to poor posture, shoulder fatigue, and extra strain on your neck and upper back.

One of the biggest aggravators? Looking down at phones or computers for long periods 📱 When your head shifts forward, the traps have to work overtime to support it.

The best way to keep it healthy is to strengthen your upper back, move your shoulders through full ranges of motion, take posture breaks during the day, & get regular bodywork to release that built up tension.

Your trapezius works hard every day, taking care of it can make a big difference in how your neck, shoulders & upper back feel.

If your traps feel like they’re carrying the stress of the week, massage therapy can help restore the balance and ease tension!

Feeling better in your body shouldn’t be generic.

Your session doesn’t end when you walk out the door. Your body continues to adjust, release, and integrate the work we did together.

Here are a few simple reminders to help you feel your best after your massage:
✨ Refuel gently
Choose freshly cooked, nourishing foods. Eat enough to support your body, but avoid overeating right afterward.
💧 Hydrate well
Drink pure water throughout the day. Room temperature or warm water is best to support circulation and digestion.
🚫 Skip alcohol
Alcohol is strongly discouraged after your session, as it can interfere with hydration and the body’s natural healing response.
🫧 If you received cupping therapy:
For the next 4–6 hours, please avoid:
Saunas or steam rooms
Hot showers
Exercise immediately after your session
Heating pads
Cold plunges or ice packs
Excessive sun exposure
These precautions help your body integrate the treatment and support proper healing of the tissues.
🏃‍♀️ Movement timing matters
Gentle movement the same day is fine, but more intense exercise is best saved for the following day, when your body is ready to benefit from it.
🌙 Extra tip:
Rest, breathe deeply, and allow yourself a slower evening if possible, your nervous system will thank you.

Your massage is an investment in your wellness. Supporting your body afterward as much as you can, helps extend the benefits and keeps you feeling balanced longer.

Just checking.. did anyone hand you an award for being exhausted, achy & pushing through?

Not sure what length of time you should book? 🤔

Here at Rooted in Wellness, all of our massages are customized therapeutic sessions. You pick the time and we tailor the session to how you’re feeling.

Here’s a run down:

15 minutes - perfect for quick, targeted relief of a specific area of tension. A favorite for neck, back & shoulders. Choose to be on the table or in the massage chair where we work over your clothing.

30 minutes - great for a concentrated upper body session or any muscle group that needs focused attention.

45 minutes - ideal for shorter full body relaxation or extended work on tightness upper body muscles.

60 minutes - our most popular option! A full body session with extra focus on your priority tension spots.

75 & 90 minutes - best for deeper relaxation, chronic tension, multiple muscular focus areas, or when you simply need more time to unwind and reset.

No matter which time frame you choose, we make every minute count with effective therapeutic techniques tailored to help you feel your best 💆🏼‍♀️

SI Joints help absorb shock & support your weight when you stand, walk & move. When the area gets tight or irritated, you may feel low back, hip & even leg discomfort.

Try out these stretches for some relief!

❄️Gentle Knee to Chest

This stretch gently lengthens the muscles around the low back and hips without twisting, reducing tension around the joint.

Start out on your back, knees bent and feet flat on the floor. (You can try this on your bed also!)
Bring one knee towards your chest, using your hands to help assist (behind the thigh or on the shin).
Hold for a few deep breaths.
Repeat on other side, and then if it’s comfortable for you try both knees.

⛄️Figure 4 Hip Stretch

Releasing the glutes & piriformis reduces the pull on the joint.

Lay on your back with knees bent.
Cross your right ankle over your left thigh making a “4”.
Gently pull the left thigh towards you until you feel a stretch in the outer hip/glute area.
Take a few deep breaths.
Repeat on the other side.

If pulling on the thigh is too much, try keeping your foot on the floor and gently press the crossed knee outward.

Try these stretches this week and if you’re still feeling tight and achy, we’d love to help! Schedule your next massage and give your body a little extra support.

Chronic stress has a funny way of sneaking into our lives. Before you know it.. it unpacks its bags, rearranges the furniture and sets up permanent residence 😳 Here’s the truth: life starts feeling a lot better when your gently start taking steps to es**rt stress out the door, making room for calm, presence and actual joy.

Reducing chronic stress is important! It helps you enjoy the good stuff. Like your favorite people, favorite foods, and the days that smell like fresh coffee and possibility ☕️
It pulls you back into the moment instead of living five steps ahead in the land of “what ifs”.
It gives your body & mind a break so they can function the way they’re meant to. Yup, those shoulders are supposed to be below your ears 😅

Massage is a powerful tool for stress management. It helps lower cortisol, relax tight muscles, improve sleep, boost mood, & remind your nervous system that it’s safe to stop ‘panic mode’. Plus, you get an hour where no one is asking you for anything! Bliss 😊

Getting out in nature (bundle up - it’s still good for you) and getting consistent with sleep is also super important!

Taking care of yourself isn’t selfish. It’s essential. The world feels lighter and life feels fuller when we slow down long enough to actually experience it.

So breathe. Stretch. Laugh. Book the massage. Your future self (and those shoulders) will thank you!

We’re so glad you’re choosing to be on our table! Here’s a quick guide to help you feel comfortable & confident for your first visit:

🌿Appointment Only
We are by appointment only. You can find the link to book on our page or website. Please be sure to fill out the intake form that is emailed to you before your session. This helps us tailor your massage to your specific needs.

🌿Arrival
Give yourself a few extra minutes to arrive early, use the restroom and we’ll meet you up front in the waiting area.

🌿Before the Massage
We’ll head over to the room & your massage therapist will chat with you about any health concerns, preferences and goals for the session. Together, we can create a plan that fits you best.

🌿Massage Time!
Once your therapist has left the room, undress to your comfort level and get under the sheet & blanket. Your therapist will knock before entering to ensure your privacy.
Throughout the massage, please don’t hesitate to let your LMT know if you’d like any adjustments, whether it’s pressure, temperature or extra bolsters for support.

Our goal is to have you feeling relaxed, cared for and refreshed ✨

Another great tip 😌 Focus on slow, deep breaths. Let your body feel heavy and melt into the table. The more you can let go and avoid holding or tensing up will help your massage therapist work more effectively.

Relaxation awaits! 🙌🏼

You’re not alone. Neck tension is one of the most common complaints we hear. Whether it’s from long hours on the computer/phone, stress, or poor posture, neck tension can sneak up quickly. Here are some simple ways to help ease it:

🌿Upper Trap Stretch
Sit tall, gently tilt your head to one side (ear to shoulder), hold for 20-30 seconds. Use your hand for a deeper stretch if needed. Repeat on the other side.

🌿Heat Therapy
A warm compress or heating pad can help increase circulation and soften tight muscles. Try this for 10-15 minutes.

🌿Strengthen
Stand or sit up straight. Squeeze your shoulder blades together (like your pinching a pencil between them), hold for 5 seconds, then release. Repeat this 10-15 times. This can help support better posture and reduce strain on the neck.

✨Regular self care goes a long way, but sometimes your body needs a little extra support.
At Rooted in Wellness, we offer targeted massage therapy sessions to help you feel your best. You can book online anytime through our profile (you can find the link: In the about section on FB/ under our name in our bio on IG) Your neck will thank you!

*with any recommendations, always do what feels right for you & speak with a professional about your specific case.
