A study gathered pediatric nurses’ perspectives after using lavender EO chest wraps (LEOCWs) as a complementary treatment for infants with bronchiolitis—inflammation of the small airways (bronchioles) in the lungs. To make the LEOCWs the nurses diluted lavender to 10% in carrier oil and applied it to a cotton cloth. The cloth was then placed in a bag and warmed between two heating pads for two to five minutes to distribute the lavender EO throughout the cotton cloth. Following this, the cotton was placed around the infant’s chest and covered with a woolen cloth. While not reported in the study, it is common to leave the LEOCW in place for twenty to thirty minutes and perform this twice daily, if well tolerated. In this qualitative study, the nurses reported the LEOCWs were a valuable adjunct treatment to reduce coughing and calm the infants and their parents.

💜 Find Your Calm with doTERRA Adaptiv 💜

In today’s world, stress affects the body in more ways than we realize. It can tighten muscles, cloud the mind, and disrupt sleep patterns. When our nervous system stays in a constant “fight or flight” mode, it impacts our emotional and physical health.

That’s where doTERRA Adaptiv comes in. This essential oil blend is specially formulated to help calm the mind, reduce anxious feelings, and promote mental clarity. It’s a gentle, natural tool I use personally and professionally to help my clients find balance again. 🌸

Here’s what makes Adaptiv so effective:
✨ Wild Orange and Lavender calm the nervous system and ease tension.
✨ Copaiba and Spearmint promote emotional grounding and focus.
✨ Rosemary and Magnolia uplift the spirit and support mental clarity.

You can diffuse Adaptiv during meditation, apply it to your wrists before a stressful meeting, or use it in your massage or travel self-care routine. I’ve found that it pairs beautifully with deep breathing and journaling practices.

When you take time to nurture your mind and body, you allow healing to happen from the inside out. 🌿

✨ MASSAGE THERAPY FAQs | HEALING IS PRIORITY ✨

Ever wondered what massage therapy really does for your body beyond relaxation? Let’s answer some of the top FAQs I get in my practice — supported by research and rooted in real healing 💆‍♀️💜

💬 FAQ 1: What are the real benefits of massage?
Massage therapy can reduce stress, anxiety, muscle pain, and even improve sleep quality. Research shows it lowers cortisol (the stress hormone) and boosts serotonin — your natural mood stabilizer (Moyer et al., 2011).
Healing isn’t a luxury—it’s healthcare.

💪 FAQ 2: What is Deep Tissue Massage?
Deep tissue uses slow, firm pressure to reach the layers where tension “hides.” It’s ideal for chronic pain, stiff necks, low back issues, and athletes. It should feel intense, but never harmful. Real relief happens when pressure meets purpose (Field, 2014).

🪨 FAQ 3: What’s the deal with Hot & Cold Stone Therapy?
🔥 Hot stones melt muscle tightness and increase circulation
❄️ Cold stones reduce swelling, inflammation & migraines
This combo supports recovery, decreases inflammation, and deeply calms the nervous system. Pure therapy.

🛌 FAQ 4: Is Massage Only for Relaxation?
No way. Massage supports posture, mobility, injury recovery, fibromyalgia relief, and chronic pain management (Sherman et al., 2011). It’s a physical, mental, and emotional reset button.

📅 FAQ 5: How Often Should I Get a Massage?
🧘‍♀️ Stress Relief: 1x per month
🏃 Injury or chronic pain: Every 1–2 weeks
⚖️ Maintenance & mobility: Customized plan
Consistency creates change — one session is relaxation, regular sessions are transformation.

🌿 PRO TIP: Hydrate after massage, stretch gently, and allow your body to receive the work. Healing continues even after you leave the table.
