Had a great time at the Erik Dalton MAT workshop this past weekend! With phenomenal instruction from Jane Detert and solid backup from TA’s Kelly Battaglia and Shannon Nevin, I was honored to help bring such an incredible learning opportunity to Grand Rapids!

Thank you for the shoutout Local First West Michigan! I'm proud to be connected with such a great local organization.

🌟 Celebrating Our Wholistic Wellness Massage Therapists! 🌟

This month, we are shining a spotlight on the incredible massage therapists who are the heart and soul of our local wellness community. These dedicated professionals not only help us feel our best but also play a crucial role in boosting our local economy.

For this People Behind the Business feature, we interviewed Pete Overvoorde, the Owner of GR Sports Massage! We asked him:

🎯 What does Local First membership mean to your organization?
"I think part of Local First means that I am part of a network of businesses here in the Grand Rapids area that support each other not only financially but by joining each other to support our businesses. It also means that I have people that I can bounce ideas off of! I can look to others for support in business matters and look at how they run their business so I can gain insight and understanding of what may work a little bit better in my business as well. There's strength in that and I appreciate the organization of Local First for putting such a network together. It means that I always have other businesses that I know are local, that all the dollars that I spend when going to them stay local, and that I can boost this economy here in Grand Rapids as well."

🎯 What would you like the Grand Rapids community to know about GR Sports Massage?
"Here GR Sports Massage is not just sports massage, it is also therapeutic massage. It is relaxation massage. I have over 800 folks on my client list and some of them come in for headache relief, some come in for TMJ issues, and some come in for a simple relaxation and just to get away from the stresses of the day. My training is in medical massage and I've honed that training overtime to include many other things as well. And so, while offering targeted relief, I can also offer relaxation in a more holistic manner."

Wholistic wellness massage therapists go far beyond individual well-being—they are vital to the health and prosperity of our entire community. 💜

A very special thank you to Shelley Irwin and WGVU for the opportunity to speak about ways we can optimize our lives. Full disclosure...I always get so nervous when I'm interviewed (especially on video), but I can't pass up an opportunity to speak on how massage therapy , health enhancing lifestyles and various wellness activities all contribute to a greater quality of life! Also, thank you Whitney Dawn Pyles and Don Kern for contributing such great insight for this lively panel discussion.

We talk with local experts on the best ways one can go around living life to the fullest.

If you’ve got the same morning view, maybe you should stay in too. GR Sports Massage is closed today due to weather conditions.

Although we’re closed today, we still have a few spots available for next week. See you soon, but for now stay safe out there!
