Renew Somatic Therapy LLC Pain & recovery-focused massage in Hugoton, KS | Neuro & Manual Lymphatic Drainage | Thai Yoga | Women’s wellness & post-op care My sessions aren’t timed slots.

Where massage ends, real bodywork begins. I’m Amanda—a Certified Massage Therapist and Lymphatic Therapist based in Hugoton, KS. I’ve spent years studying techniques from both Eastern and Western traditions, but one thing has stood out above all: Vedic Thai bodywork works when nothing else does. Clients come to me with tension, pain, or restriction—often after trying everything else. After a full session of deep tissue or lymphatic work, if there's still a “catch” in their back or stiffness that won't let go, I don’t stop. I get them on the table and integrate Thai-assisted stretches that finally release what needed to move. I believe healing isn’t on the clock. If your body needs five more minutes to unwind—you get those minutes. They’re deep, full-body recalibrations tailored to your structure, your story, and your nervous system. I specialize in:

Post-surgical and lymphatic recovery

Pain relief and myofascial release

Stretch-based therapy rooted in Vedic Thai Yoga

Women’s wellness and chest/breast massage

Long-form therapeutic sessions (90–120 minutes)

This is not a spa massage. This is real therapeutic bodywork designed to create change. Every session is clothed or unclothed as needed, and every session begins with one question: What does your body need today?

This is scary about what Dr Jodi says about functional Dr's today and med spas
I'm starting week 3 of my reset.
My weight has stabilized. I'm down 2 more lbs. My body feels lighter, my clothes are a bit looser.
No pain in my body.
I've been in the cofactors for a week now. Just started the iodine about 4 days ago and so far my body isn't angry about it. The first dose I tried which was half a dose from everyone else's normal didn't agree so I had to back off wait a couple of days cut the iodine into eights and take abit 1/16th but now up to an eighth and doing great.
I don't have a thyroid so I can't take iodine like someone with a thyroid can. That radioactive iodine tx I had did a number on me. but hey that's the tx for thyroid cancer.

🌿 Day 10 Update — Real Change Starts from the Inside Out

Two weeks ago I bought new pants that fit perfectly.
Today? They’re loose around my waist.
My thighs no longer rub when I walk. My seams used to pill like crazy — and anyone who’s dealt with inflammation knows exactly what I’m talking about.

My skin feels soft and hydrated again — no lotions, no gimmicks — just healing from the inside out.
And the best part? I feel my body coming back online in ways I didn’t even know were possible.

💫 What’s Happening Beneath the Surface

This reset isn’t about cutting calories or chasing a number on the scale.
It’s about restoring trust in the body — so it finally feels safe enough to let go of stored fat, water, and inflammation.

Here’s what’s been happening behind the scenes:

✅ Thyroid receptors are re-awakening.
Cold hands? That’s not a setback — it’s a sign your metabolism and circulation are recalibrating after years of stress and imbalance.

✅ The body is shifting blood flow inward.
During detox, your system temporarily focuses on core healing — liver, kidneys, lymph — instead of the extremities. It’s your metabolism learning how to regulate temperature naturally again.

✅ Glucose metabolism is improving.
As you lower processed fats and feed the liver properly, your cells start using glucose efficiently again — a huge step for anyone healing from metabolic sluggishness or Type 2 diabetes.

✅ The nervous system is relaxing.
Trauma, stress, and overwork all affect how the liver stores energy. When the nervous system feels supported, the body can finally release what it’s been holding onto.

🍎 Why Fruit Plays a Big Role

“Fruits are God’s gifts to us. They’re the only food that actually wants to be eaten.” — Dr. Jodi

Fruit grows in abundance, ripens, falls, and feeds new life.
That same life force helps re-train your liver and metabolism to function in rhythm again.

This isn’t a diet — it’s teaching your liver how to breathe again.
When you nourish the body instead of starving it, it heals.

✨ My Takeaway

I’m down weight, yes — but more importantly, I’m gaining back connection, energy, and trust in my body.

If you’re ready to feel safe, nourished, and fully alive in your own skin again…
comment “RESET” below and I’ll share more about the process and how to start. 💚

Written by Dr Jodi.
Your body wasn’t designed to be on medication forever.

You weren’t born with a chemical deficiency.
You were born with a body so intelligent… it’s constantly trying to heal you.

Every cell in your body carries the memory of balance.
It knows what to do.
It’s been doing it since the moment you were conceived.

But here’s what happens…
We live in a toxic world that confuses the body’s communication system.
We overload it with chemicals, processed food, stress, and environmental poisons.
Then when symptoms show up - instead of asking why, we silence the body with medication.

Medications don’t fix the root cause.
They just mute the message.
And when you silence the body long enough… it starts to whisper louder.
Until eventually, it screams.

Your body isn’t broken - it’s trying to tell you something.
Every ache, every rash, every headache, every bout of fatigue… is communication.

Healing begins when you finally stop fighting your body and start listening to it.
When you restore minerals.
When you hydrate with real water.
When you move.
When you breathe deeply.
When you reconnect with sunlight, nature, and peace.

Cells don’t need synthetic chemicals to function - they need energy, oxygen, and nourishment.
When you give them that, they remember how to repair, regenerate, and restore.

Medication was meant for emergencies, not lifetimes.
Your body is not a pharmaceutical experiment - it’s a self-healing masterpiece designed by God.

And when you finally trust that design…
everything starts to change.

Reset pics before and after. 1 week results. I have not exercised other than walking in my backyard but I am starting back on my HIIT workout this week since my body pain is gone.
See if you can spot any differences. They are small like the belly bloat however the changes are mostly internal.

Listen, I didn't necessarily do this to lose weight.
I had accepted that losing my thyroid to cancere and that I would be cancer free and that everything else would just fall into place and I would appreciate living the rest of my life and find more joy, and appreciate more.
I accepted that I would have a new body shape as I often refer to my (now body) as my big girl body no pun intended.
I've had to learn how to dress my body because I was the gal who could out eat my husband and never gain a pound. The one the girls loved to hate. I've never dieted ever! So I honestly didn't know if I could do this.
It's not easy, I denied Sonic last week! I've denied going to what I would only refer to as comfort foods.
But I literally had been thrown into surgicalized menopause after the thyroid removal so it's been a fast road of daily what the heck is happening now, kind of days and just rolling with it

Pic on the left is the start of inflammation and the black and white dress is yrs later and I am inflamed. I have a belly, I had to wear a sucker inner under that dress and dress shopping was sad. I used to go to White House black market and that black dress came from there and I felt like they no longer catered to my size and were pretty dismissive. It was very hard to find a dress that would fit me. I wanted an A line but they only had fitted.

🌿 One Week on Dr. Jodi’s Full Body Reset — My Honest Update 🌿

It’s been one week since I started Dr. Jodi’s Full Body Reset, and I’m already down 7 pounds — just from eating clean and following the plan!

✨ What’s surprised me most isn’t just the number on the scale — it’s the changes in my skin and joints.
The dryness on the tops of my feet — which used to feel rough and scaly — has completely transformed. They’re now soft, supple, and smooth, and I haven’t even used lotion all week!

My joint pain is completely gone. Even after a chiropractic visit, I used to stay sore for days… but not anymore. 🙌

💚 The first phase of this reset is all about detoxifying the liver — eating in a way that gives it a true break so it can do its job without overload. When the liver gets that rest, inflammation starts to drop naturally, and your whole body feels it.

Yesterday I started adding in the supplements Dr. Jodi recommends, and I can already feel the difference.

📝 The reset itself is a $47 one-time program. It includes:
• A full blueprint
• A cheat sheet
• A recipe book (all digital!)

You’ll still need your groceries and supplements, but it’s a great starting point if you’re ready to feel better from the inside out.

This is not a GLP shot.
This is not surgery.
This is a natural, patient, sustainable way of healing your body through food and awareness. 🌱

Since starting:
✅ My belly bloat is way down
✅ My digestion feels amazing
✅ No more joint aches or brain fog
✅ I’m eating smaller portions without trying
✅ Emotional snacking at night? Gone.

When I get hungry, I just eat more of the approved foods — it’s that simple.

If anyone’s curious or wants to try it, send me a message! 💌
I even used ChatGPT to create easy meal plans for each phase, so I can share those ideas too.

Your body wants to heal — you just have to give it the chance. 💚✨

🌿 Reset Update: Week 1 Progress 🌿

If you’ve been following my posts lately, you know that I started a journey to eat cleaner and support my overall health through Dr. Jodi Shabazz’s Full Body Reset.

I officially began this reset on Monday, October 20th, after doing my grocery prep a week earlier—and I still have plenty of food left! I’ve been following the plan closely, enjoying the suggested fruits for breakfast, lunch, and mid-day snacks, and having lean meats with approved veggies for supper.

Before starting, I checked the scale… and today, I’m down 6 pounds! I don’t necessarily feel lighter yet, but I can tell a difference—especially when I look down in the shower and can actually see my feet again! My menopause belly and overall bloating from years of a standard American diet are finally starting to shift.

This isn’t just about weight loss for me—it’s about healing my body. Living without a thyroid means every day can bring new surprises with my symptoms, and that’s why I’m doing this reset: to help my body function better, naturally.

💚 Why Phase 1 Focuses on the Liver

Right now, I’m in Phase 1, which is all about supporting the liver—our body’s main filter and detox powerhouse. The liver processes everything we eat, drink, breathe, and absorb—from hormones and medications to fats and environmental toxins. When it’s overworked or sluggish, waste can build up and trigger fatigue, bloating, inflammation, and hormonal imbalance (including thyroid issues).

By removing processed foods, refined sugars, and inflammatory oils, this first phase gives the liver room to do its job again. It emphasizes hydration, cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and kale, clean protein, and citrus such as lemon to flush toxins, balance hormones, and reboot metabolism.

This step isn’t about deprivation—it’s about giving the body a clean slate so healing can begin from the inside out. Once the liver is functioning optimally, the next phases focus on deeper detox, fat metabolism, and hormone balance.

---

Has it been easy? No. Have I been perfect? Almost! I’ve stayed committed to the food plan—no Sonic runs, no chips—and I’ve even allowed myself a small square of chocolate twice this week. It didn’t derail me; in fact, I still lost another pound the next day.

Dr. Jodi said this program works—and now I can say I’m seeing the results for myself. I’m excited to keep sharing this journey and what I’m learning about supporting the body through food and mindful choices. 💚

I'm a who, what, where, how and why type of person. I'm only on day two of this.

🌿 Ready for a True Reset — Not Just Another Diet? 🌿
If you’ve tried every “quick fix” out there with little to show, it might be time to approach things differently. The Standard American Diet (think processed foods, sugar overload, minimal fibre, relentless stress) puts a toxic burden on the body — especially on the liver and thyroid. Over time, this burden contributes to things like fatty liver, sluggish metabolism, weight that won’t budge, and even thyroid issues like Hashimoto’s disease and Type 2 diabetes.

Here’s how Dr Jody’s Full Body Reset works to undo years of hidden damage — in a why • what • how breakdown:

WHY:

The liver is the body’s detox super-station. When it’s overstressed (by sugar, unhealthy fats, additives, and chemical exposure) it becomes fatty, sluggish, and unable to process hormones or clear metabolic waste properly.

The thyroid depends on a well-functioning liver + good nutrition to operate optimally. When liver & metabolism lag, the thyroid can get dragged down — leading to low energy, stubborn weight, hormone imbalance.

Many diets ignore the deep internal terrain and simply apply calorie restriction — the body resists this by holding on to fat, slowing metabolism, and perpetuating the problem.

WHAT:

Phase 1: A fruit-based cleanse designed to flood your system with living enzymes, hydration, antioxidants and gentle nourishment. This gives your liver a break and helps vacate stored waste.

Phase 2: Depending on how you feel and how your weight / metrics are shifting, you transition into deeper support. You’ll continue the cleanse and add targeted support (think deeper metabolic re-engagement).

Phase 3: You’re past the “cleaning house” stage and now rebuilding with better foods, more variety, and re-introducing foods you used to eat — with your system in a healthier state.

Eventually: You maintain your new baseline. You operate from a higher-functioning system that can handle more variety without getting bogged down, your metabolism is more responsive, your liver and thyroid are more supported.

HOW:

Commit to the phases according to your goal: If you’re aiming for a modest reset, one cycle may be sufficient. If weight loss, thyroid/metabolic reset or reversing longer-standing issues is your aim, then the blueprint allows for staying in cleaner phases longer before transitioning.

Rebuild your system so your metabolism becomes an asset instead of an enemy. By supporting the liver and thyroid, you’re not just losing weight — you’re resetting your body’s capacity to metabolize, regulate hormones, detox, and heal.

Dr Jody herself achieved full reversal of her Hashimoto’s through this protocol — so you’re following a path that has worked at deep root-level.

Each person's metabolism and internal issues are unique and there is no one thing that can promise miracles overnight, this process offers the structure, science and strategy that most diets lack.

✨ If you’ve been stuck, frustrated, or just plain tired of one more diet that leaves you worse off — it might be time to reset the foundation.
