Soooo… I bought Rapid 4 yesterday. 😅 I have a couple clients and a little brother (who isn’t so little anymore) that I felt needed some things that they cover in R4 online that isn’t in Core. I’m slowly adding more advanced RAPID work to my skill set to better serve you guys. 🙏🏻
My husband took this picture of me studying the new material with my best study buddy in the world, Layla 🐶 ♥️ first comment is some of the conditions covered in R4 if you’re curious what I’m learning how to treat 😉🤓

Big change at Restorative Motion 👀

⸻

For a long time I’ve been trying to figure out how to make it easier for people in pain to get in quickly when something suddenly hurts.

After a lot of thought (and a little wrestling with scheduling software 😅), I finally solved it.

Wednesdays are now RAPID Relief Clinic days.

These appointments are designed specifically for people dealing with pain, movement restrictions, or nerve irritation.

To make treatment more flexible, RAPID is now offered in three options:

• 20 minute Targeted Treatment – great for flare ups like arthritic hands, neck pain, shoulder tension or sciatic irritation

• 45 minute Pain Treatment – our most common session for treating multiple related areas

• 60 minute Advanced Treatment – for more complex or long-standing issues

If you already have a RAPID appointment scheduled, you’ll still receive the previous $70 rate.

This new structure simply allows people to choose the right amount of treatment time for what their body needs.

If something suddenly hurts, there’s now a dedicated day for that.

I assess and treat the talus for RAPID clients on the regular. It makes a huge impact on foot and ankle pain

Do you consider mobilization of the talus as part of your foot and ankle patient care? An anteriorly positioned talus will restrict dorsifexion which is highly correlated with plantar fasciitis and bone spurs. If the talus is out of position no amount of shockwave, laser, taping or soft tissue work will have any impact on your patients pain.

𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳 – 𝗥𝗔𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸

Quick question for the Eaton Rapids community:

Are you dealing with something like…

• headaches or jaw pain
• shoulder or neck tension
• tingling or nerve pain
• stubborn hip or back pain
• tennis elbow or carpal tunnel
• an old injury that never quite healed

Most people are told these problems are 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹, but in many cases they’re actually caused by 𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗰𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲.

That’s exactly what 𝗥𝗔𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝗡𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗙𝗮𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝘁 is designed to address.

I’ve opened several upcoming days as 𝗥𝗔𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗮𝘆𝘀 at 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 to help people get relief before spring break.

If treatment plans require frequent sessions, I’m also willing to continue 𝗥𝗔𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸 so progress isn’t interrupted.

You may also notice that the 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗟𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 as the practice transitions to 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. Same therapist — just a name that better reflects the pain-relief work I’m doing today.

In May I’ll also be traveling to 𝗧𝗼𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗥𝗔𝗣𝗜𝗗 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 to expand the conditions I’m able to treat even further.

If you’ve been struggling with pain and nothing seems to help, this may be the missing piece.

Appointments are limited.

Allison the chicken whisperer 🐥 💤 just a girl and her friend ♥️

03/07/2026

Chicken update for anyone that’s following me for the chicks 🐣
This is Violet, the chick that Allison picked. She’s the sweetest and calmest snuggly chick I’ve ever met. She just molds to your hand and will close her eyes if you give her gentle pets. 😍 they’re approximately 2 weeks old and love to eat.
Our dog thinks they’re her babies, so that’s been super cute to watch unfold. If they peep too loudly she runs to check on them. (Don’t worry we would never leave her unsupervised around them, she’s always closely monitored if the lid is off and crated when we leave). She will also boop the cat off the top of their brooding box with her nose 😂 our cat has zero interest in them, just laying on the lid of the box 📦… typical cat. We bring home something that should be way cooler than a box and yet she loves the package they’re in 😅 I guess we don’t have to worry about her trying to eat them! I was a little worried at first.
The best part though? How obsessed my husband is. These are Nick’s girls through and through 😂 he checks on them multiple times a day, talks to and holds all of them, hand feeds them, and makes sure they have what they need. It’s sweet seeing him so smitten with a bunch of peeping fuzz balls 🐥 😂
So we have a Violet, a Bernice (Birdy), and a Diamond. I need 3 more classic old lady names. I kinda like Gladys or Trudy but am unsure. Help me name our last 3 girls 🩷

I had the best experience this morning working with Restless Leg Syndrome for the first time using RAPID NFR. 💛
My client has had both hips replaced, two auto immune disorders, and sleep was non existent for her.
It started with barefoot massage, and a carefully observant LMT paying attention to how her body was responding to pressure and position changes.
She asked “is there anything else we can do? What do you know about RLS?”
I took the time to consult with colleagues, do my own research, and ask her more in depth questions about her history. I called her almost a week later to talk more about the possibilities of using RAPID. She’s doing everything right, functional medicine, rheumatology, staying active, vitamins, regular labs, but she can’t sleep, and her life was miserable.
I worked her hips and lumbar spine, had her move around a bit, and then test it with laying on her back (which normally would cause the RLS symptoms to be more active)….. nothing. No twitching, no crawling sensations, no discomfort. For the moments that she laid there, she had a look of peace on her face that I’ve personally never seen on her before.
I’m so thrilled to be able to help someone in such a profound way. Looking forward to that “how’d you sleep last night?” Text I’m going to send her tomorrow 🙏🏻 pic of the back of my new business cards 😍
I genuinely love complex cases. If you’re struggling with pain, or they’ve told you “it’s just something you’ll have to deal with”… let’s see if we can change the dialogue. Book your RAPID NFR session below ⬇️

Google reviews help tremendously.
Every time you write a review on Google it helps boost my visibility to reach more people that don’t know they need me yet. (Take a second to imagine what life was like before we met… yeah, it wasnt pretty 😂)
By supporting a small business you’re making everyday miracles happen. You’re funding family dinners at the table, kids sports, keeping the lights on and the home warm. It’s chaperoning field trips. It’s Saturday nights with belly laughs and a bowl of popcorn and our favorite family movies. Memories made on family vacations that my kids will remember forever.
It’s also helping your therapist fund her continuing education to bring back the latest techniques for pain relief.
Every review helps me make significant impacts on the community. Please, if you’ve written a Massagebook review (they go to your email automatically) take the time to find me on Google and write it again. You can even copy/paste. Thank you for supporting a local business ♥️ and helping me reach more of the community.

Big news for Restorative Motion 💚

One of my goals as a business owner has always been to expand access to quality bodywork in our community — not just through me, but by supporting other talented therapists as well.

Starting March 8th, Ginger Colley of Ginger Snaps Massage LLC will be sharing my office suite on the days I’m not working.

Ginger brings over 20 years of experience to the table and has worked closely with a chiropractor in recent years. She offers therapeutic massage along with hot stones, cupping, reiki, and blading.

Her schedule in the suite will be:
✨ Sundays
✨ Mondays
✨ Thursdays
✨ Alternating Saturdays

She operates independently under her own business, and I’m genuinely excited to collaborate with another seasoned therapist who is passionate about hands-on care.

More options. More availability. More ways to serve this community well.

If you’d like to book with Ginger, you can schedule directly through her here:

Welcome to the space, Ginger 🌿
