“Why do massage therapists charge so much per hour?”

A question we hear often — and a great one.

The hour you spend on the table is only a fraction of the work your therapist does. Massage is incredibly physically demanding, so we’re limited in how many clients we can safely and effectively treat each day.

Behind the scenes, there’s a lot more happening: endless loads of laundry (yes, every client gets fresh, clean sheets), marketing, scheduling, cleaning, client notes, and bookkeeping. Add to that the overhead no one sees — rent, taxes, insurance, continuing education, and the steady supply of oils, tools, and linens that keep a practice running.

And unlike traditional jobs, massage therapists don’t get paid vacation or paid sick days. When we’re sick or recovering from an injury, we simply can’t work. Our rates help us save for those unavoidable days so we can continue caring for you long-term.

But here’s the real heart of it: regular massage isn’t just a service — it’s an investment in your body’s long-term well-being.

For many clients, consistent treatment reduces chronic pain, improves mobility, calms the nervous system, and restores a quality of life they thought they’d lost. The value of waking up without that constant ache, moving without fear of a flare-up, or finally sleeping through the night is priceless.

When you book a session, you’re not paying for just an hour of massage; you’re supporting skilled, thoughtful care that helps you feel and function better every day.

Thank you for supporting the work that supports you. 💛

Studies have revealed that just 15 minutes in the sauna can increase human growth hormone by up to 150%.

The high temperatures in a sauna create a stressful environment for the body. The stress activates heat shock proteins, which then send signals to the brain. The hypothalamus responds to these signals, which promotes the release of growth hormone from the pituitary gland. This leads to a temporary increase in HGG levels in the bloodstream.

Factors influencing the effect 1) higher temperatures and longer sessions, when following by cooling periods, can lead to greater HGH increases; 2) repeated exposure to heat, such as multiple sessions per day for several days, has been shown to have a more profound effect on HGH levels than a single session; and 3) incorporating cooling periods between heat exposures can enhance the hormonal response, as the strategic cycling of hot and cool temperatures activates biological processes that promote hormone release.

HGH helps in the repair of tissues, which can be beneficial during periods of intense training or recovery from injury. HGH plays a role in preserving muscle mass and promoting its growth. The hormone also aids in maintaining bone mass. Additionally, increased HGH levels can improve body composition, sleep and increase exercise performance.

For my clients with Ehler’s Danlos or other hyper mobility issues this is for you. Tai Chi is an amazing example of Dynamic Stretching and I encourage it for everyone ESPECIALLY the hyper mobile folks like myself.
