I hope everyone is settling in to the New Year!
There are a few Ginger updates and wanted to keep everyone in the know, as it may impact upcoming massage sessions.
I haven’t talked to many clients about my health issues but felt I should send an explanation of recent cancellations. About 18 months ago, I had a horrible experience with Covid that has impacted my neurological system. I’ve been diagnosed with Long-Covid and since then, doctors have been trying to navigate it with different medications and modifying how much I can take on, between my business and little family. I recently had a pretty intense neurological flare that has now caused my hands to go numb. I made the mistake of pushing through it to follow through with scheduled clients and ended up with an upper back injury that is pulling my bad shoulder into the mix, I’m assuming from years of overcompensating to avoid surgery.
For the first time in 28 years, I have been reluctant to reschedule cancelled massage appointments. I need to apologize to those that have been waiting to hear back from me. This has been a really emotional experience… I love bodywork and mentally haven’t prepared myself for change but also need to acknowledge where my body is at and focus on trying to heal, as much as possible.
I will be slowing my massage schedule down quite a bit over the next few months. I want to be transparent that my business will be transitioning over the next year to focus more on energy modalities- Intuitive Reiki, Soul SeekUp Massage and offering bodywork to Angel Baby parents (this is a service I provide to bereaved parents that have lost a child at Newberg Maternity Ward and the thing that established my business in to “being”.)
But with this message comes some exciting things! I will be taking a Massage CEU Tuning Fork Class next month that focuses on chakra work, adding to the sound therapy of my Tibetan Bowls. I am also finalizing a decision on transforming my massage table so that it has the ability to offer acoustic sound with a hertz frequency, which will be a fantastic addition to Reiki and Soul SeekUp Massage.
I’ve been so grateful for the loyalty and support over the years! I only have heartfelt gratitude for friendships I have made and appreciate the kindness that has been shown, especially the last couple of years.
I will keep everyone posted as things unfold. My main goal is to do a big overhaul on healing my nervous system and still do what I love, just elevated to meet me where I am at.
Much Love,
Ginger Ross
