A heartfelt thank you to Jim for dropping off a stack of books for our feel-good library, NOURISH. After the flood, we lost nearly half of our collection, and little by little, this beautiful community is helping us rebuild it.

NOURISH is a thoughtfully curated library—every book on the shelf has been read and loved by someone who felt it helped them feel better, do better, or be better. If a book leaves you changed in some small, meaningful way, it belongs here.

✨ Stop by anytime to browse and borrow.
📖 And if you have a book that fits this spirit and you’re ready to pass it on, we would be so grateful to give it a new home.

Thank you for helping us restore more than shelves—you’re helping restore stories, comfort, and hope. 💛

Cold start to the day but the table warmer is on.

If the world is feeling cold to you in other ways, this quote still applies.

Be the warmth. Be the light. We need more of that. ❤️

We often take for granted how much weight—both physical and emotional—the body carries each day. If we expect it to last and serve us well, we must also create time to give back to it: quiet time, restorative time, time that replenishes its resources.

We are often diligent about pushing our bodies. What if we were just as intentional about supporting and restoring them?

It’s not indulgence—it’s care. And it’s something we do not just for our bodies, but for ourselves.

✨ Take a moment this week to invest in your body’s recovery—schedule a session and give it the care it deserves.

Monday Motivation:

Tension is your body’s signal that it’s time to lighten the load. Put it down, carry less, or get a massage to keep moving forward. Ignoring these signals can have long-term consequences.

Learn to recognize them early—before you lose touch with what it feels like to truly relax.

Need a reminder? Come see us at Island Therapeutics—we’ll help you reset and get back on track.

It’s Hump Day! Press on, lighter days are ahead, you have to believe it.

And there were definitely times over the last year where I felt discouraged. I’m so glad hope, hard work and kindness won.

Thank you Lucille for your wise words today. ❤️

The human body is an extraordinary system, constantly communicating its needs—if we take the time to listen. While it possesses an innate capacity to heal, there are times when skilled support helps guide that process forward.

At Island Therapeutics, our goal is to honor the body’s natural healing process by providing thoughtful, targeted treatment—using only what is needed to support recovery and balance.

We serve as facilitators of the body’s own healing process. And while the work is grounded in knowledge and skill, at times the results can feel almost magical.

We specialize in providing long lasting therapeutic massage in a relaxing environment.

Tissue Tuesday – Suboccipitals�

These small muscles often drive headaches and eye strain.�

The suboccipital group includes four small muscles on the back of the neck and skull that originate between the occipital bone and the transverse processes of C1 and C2. These muscles are responsible for fine head positioning, eye coordination, and subtle neck extension.

Because of their connection to vision and posture these muscles commonly tighten with prolonged screen use, eye strain, forward head posture, and mental overfocus.

Tension here is commonly associated with headaches, jaw tension, and difficulty fully relaxing.

Emotionally, this area often holds mental load and constant “thinking mode.

The occipital region is a small area that can have a big influence—especially when they’re rarely allowed to rest and constantly overcorrecting our posture.

It is truly an honor and a privilege to be part of my clients’ wellness journeys—something I never take lightly.

Each of us has unique needs. Just as we all look different on the outside, we are just as individual on the inside. The one constant we share is our humanity. From a bodywork perspective, tissue is tissue, and I deeply value the opportunity to work with each body’s story and needs.

Thank you for trusting us at Island Therapeutics. We are grateful to be part of your journey and we value the opportunity to support your health and function through intentional, individualized care.
