Let’s clear something up: massage therapists don’t always need to use as much pressure as possible.

There’s a common belief that if a massage isn’t deep or intense, it’s not effective. But pressure is just one tool - and more pressure doesn’t automatically mean better results.

Here’s what actually matters during a massage:

• Your nervous system - muscles release best when your body feels safe, not braced
• The tissue response - sometimes gentle work allows deeper change than forcing pressure
• Your goals that day - recovery, relaxation, pain relief, or mobility all call for different approaches

Massage isn’t about “going hard.” It’s about giving your body the right kind of support at the right time. Effective work meets your body where it is - not where you think it should be.

Double tap if this surprised you - and let me know in the comments if you’ve ever wondered what kind of pressure is actually best for your body.

Meet Blue 💙🐾 a 3 y/o Female Micro Bully.

Sometimes the universe places exactly what your heart needs in front of you… without asking.

What started as helping my mom pick up a bathroom vanity turned into meeting a remarkable rescue girl who quietly chose us. Blue came from a life of hardship, healing, and resilience — and today she’s healthy, gentle, calm, and full of love.

She’ll soon be joining me as the Advanced Therapeutic Healing office dog & unofficial mascot, bringing her grounded, soothing presence into the space.
(Yes — please remember to disclose dog allergies on your intake forms 🐶💙)

I’m deeply grateful to Theresa of Paws! for trusting us with this sweet soul and for the incredible rescue work she continues to do.

Please help me welcome Blue into the ATH family 🤍
And if you have name ideas… I’m listening 😉

Anyone who truly knows me knows this about my heart: I rescue and adopt—never puppy mills or unethical breeders. Please consider doing the same. We’ve reduced euthanasia numbers from over 1 million in 2016 to around 400,000 annually, but that’s still far too many. We can do better—together.

Ever feel like your massage therapist is working right on your kidney when they’re in your low back?

Good news - they’re not touching your kidney at all.

That deep, achy spot near your lower ribs is often a muscle called the quadratus lumborum (QL). It sits deep in the low back and helps stabilize your spine, support posture, and assist with bending and side-to-side movement.

Because of where it lives, QL work can feel:
• very deep
• a little “inside”
• intense but relieving
• like pressure near the flank or rib area

That sensation surprises a lot of people, but it’s completely normal.

This muscle often gets cranky from:
• long hours of sitting or standing
• favoring one side of the body
• stress and guarding
• low back or hip tension

When your therapist works there, the goal isn’t to poke anything important - it’s to help that deep stabilizing muscle soften so your low back can finally relax.

If something ever feels too intense, always speak up. Massage should feel productive, not alarming.
Sometimes the weirdest sensations come from muscles you didn’t even know you had.

Is it okay to fall asleep during a massage… or is that awkward? 😴

This is one of the most common (and quietly worried-about) questions people have before or during a session. So let’s clear it up once and for all.
Here’s what falling asleep during a massage actually means:

• Your nervous system feels safe - drifting off is a sign your body can fully relax
• Your muscles are letting go - sleep often happens when tension releases
• You’re not “missing” the massage - your body still receives the benefits, even if your mind checks out

Falling asleep during a massage isn’t rude, embarrassing, or wasted time - it’s your body doing exactly what it needs in that moment.

The 5 Way Shoulder Warm Up looks simple… because it is. 😝

But don’t underestimate what a little daily movement can do. Just five minutes a day can help improve your posture, breathing, upper body flexibility, and even calm your nervous system.

Mobility doesn’t have to be complicated, it doesn’t have to hurt, and it definitely doesn’t have to take more than a few minutes.

You just have to do it… consistently.

Move your body in ways that aren’t hunched over your phone or computer, and you’ll be amazed at how much better you feel.

You don’t need a “new you.” Your body just needs a little support. 🤍

So much of wellness messaging makes it sound like your body is broken, behind, or something you need to overhaul. But most of the time, what your body is actually asking for is much simpler than that.

Here’s what support really looks like:

• Consistency over intensity - small, regular care goes further than waiting for a breaking point
• Listening instead of pushing - responding to tension early instead of powering through it
• Recovery without guilt - rest and care don’t need to be “earned”

Your body isn’t failing you - it’s adapting. And with the right support, it can soften, recover, and function better without needing a complete reset.

Double tap if this feels like permission you needed today - and let me know in the comments what kind of support your body could use right now.

It’s National Bubble Bath Day! And yes, bubbles are fun… but let’s talk about what your muscles really love after a massage. 🛀

Bubble baths are great for comfort, scent, and relaxation. They help you slow down and feel cozy - which absolutely counts as self-care.

But after a massage, your muscles are already softened and primed for recovery. That’s where Epsom salt baths come in. The warm water paired with magnesium may help calm the nervous system, ease post-massage soreness, and support deeper muscle recovery (not just surface-level relaxation).

Think of it like this:
Bubble baths = relaxation vibes
Epsom salt baths = recovery support
Both feel good. One continues the work your massage started.

Here’s how to celebrate National Bubble Bath Day massage-style:
Enjoy the warm soak - but swap the bubbles for 1–2 cups of Epsom salts and soak for 15–20 minutes. Hydrate afterward and let your body fully absorb the benefits.

Are you team bubbles 🫧 or team Epsom salts 🧂?
or do you mix it up depending on the day?

Tell me in the comments, and let me know if you want more simple ways to get longer-lasting results from your massage.

Looking forward to your relaxing massage? Remember to allow your body some time to digest your meal first! Eating just before a session can lead to discomfort and reduce the benefits of your treatment. Prioritize your well-being for the ultimate relaxation experience! 💆‍♀️💖

Ever wondered why your massage therapist gently shakes or rocks your arm or leg? 👀

It can feel a little unexpected if you’ve never had it done before, but this technique is intentional… and it serves a few important purposes during your session.

Here’s what’s actually happening when you feel that gentle movement:

• It helps your nervous system relax -
rhythmic movement can signal safety to your body, helping muscles let go without forcing them

• It releases tension without pressure -
rocking can reduce guarding and resistance, especially in areas that are holding stress

• It improves body awareness -
small movements help your body sense where it’s holding tension and adjust more naturally

Shaking or rocking isn’t random - it’s a subtle way to encourage relaxation, improve mobility, and help your body respond more easily to hands-on work.
