📢 New Booking Policy Update 📢

To improve session outcomes and better meet client expectations, I’ll be introducing a Pre-Massage Consultation Requirement for all equine and canine clients starting this week.

During this consultation, your horse or dog will be asked to:
✔️ Clearly communicate any tension areas
✔️ Indicate preferred pressure level
✔️ Set personal relaxation goals for the session

While most clients have been cooperative, a few have chosen to simply stare at me or lick my face instead of answering questions. We’re working through it.

Owners are welcome to attend, but please note: your animal’s feedback will take priority.

Thank you for your understanding as I continue to elevate the client experience!

(Check the calendar… and Happy April Fools 😄)

FASCIA HAS 2 PRIMARY FUNCTIONAL PROPERIES:
1. Thixotropic Property

Definition: Thixotropy refers to a substance becoming less viscous (more fluid) when it is moved or stressed, and more viscous (stiffer) when at rest.

In fascia:

When you move, stretch, or apply pressure, fascia becomes more pliable and hydrated, allowing smoother movement.

When you are inactive for long periods, fascia can become stiffer and more gel-like, contributing to tightness.

Clinical relevance:

Explains why warm-up, stretching, and massage improve mobility.

Supports the idea behind therapies like myofascial release.

2. Piezoelectric Property

Definition: Piezoelectricity is the ability of a material to generate electrical charges in response to mechanical stress.

In fascia:

When fascia is compressed, stretched, or loaded, it produces small electrical signals.

These signals can influence cellular activity, including:

Tissue repair

Remodeling of collagen

Clinical relevance:

Helps explain how mechanical forces (exercise, manual therapy) can stimulate healing.

Plays a role in adaptation to stress and injury recovery.

Simple Summary

Thixotropic → “Move it, it loosens.”

Piezoelectric → “Stress it, it signals and adapts.”

When you get a text 5 hours after giving the massage, "she's been so relaxed and wiped out all evening."

Reasons why I love hearing these responses.
- Nervous system shift to parasympathetic. Lowering stress hormones
- Muscle release- the body sometimes reacts with temporary fatigue
- Natural feel-good chemicals releases
- Increasing circulation in blood flow and lymphatic systems that assist in recovery and repair process.
- Releasing emotional tension
