✨🇫🇮At hot stone massage training today, I learned the history of it and had to share. Although written and spoken history shows that civilizations 2,000 years ago used hot stones for healing by placing them on organs, or certain patterns, it was Mary Nelson in 1993 who created LaStone Therapy, which is commonly called hot stone massage. It was when she was sitting in a sauna taking a short break before giving another session to her daughter, who was also present. She took one of the stones out of the rock basket and started working her hand with it and then her daughter’s upper trapezius and hot stone massage was born. The teacher I’m training with was trained by Mary and eventually taught for LaStone Therapy. When she was sharing this story, she said sauna (sow-na) the correct way followed by saying, “No, it’s not pronounced saw-na. My Finnish heart was happy!🇫🇮✨

The majority of the therapeutic massage training I received in school, along with my continuing education, has been in Precision Neuromuscular Therapy (PNMT). Seth Will, a longtime PNMT instructor, practices at Bay Bodyworks located in Manitowoc, WI on the weekends. It’s been terrific to continue getting treated by him since moving back to the UP because of the unique and invaluable experience it is to train with someone and then get to see and feel how they put it all together from the intake, assessment, and then treatment. I look forward to continuing my studies with Precision Neuromuscular Therapy Seminars in 2026!

This past week I had a client come in that was suffering from TMJ issues. This dysfunction was most likely causing the jaw, ear, head, and neck pain she was experiencing. As I was reviewing some palpation skills on myself, I realized that my right masseter (the muscle shown below) attachment into the mandible (bottom
jaw bone) was extremely sensitive. I treated it and the outcome was noticeable. A few days leading up to this moment, I kept biting the right side of my inner lip while eating. It was frustrating and painful! After treating my masseter, no more biting my own lip. Dysfunction of a joint or muscle doesn’t necessarily show up as pain, but a change in function.
