This image is a great visual explanation of how fascia actually behaves in the body, and why working only muscle or only surface tissue often misses the real issue.

I’ll break it down layer by layer...

1️⃣ Top image (the simplified (but inaccurate) model)

This is the old-school anatomical view most people were taught:

▪️Skin
▪️Fat
▪️Muscle

Everything looks neatly layered, separated, and independent.

⛔️ What’s missing here:
Fascia is not shown as a living, continuous system. This model implies that pain or dysfunction is isolated to a single layer - which we now know is false.

2️⃣ Middle image (fascia as a connective web)

Here we see the real picture emerging:

▪️Fascia is everywhere
▪️It weaves through skin, fat, muscle, vessels, and nerves
▪️It forms points of tension, densification, and restriction (circled areas)

❗️This explains why:

▪️Pain shows up far from the original injury
▪️A “tight muscle” won’t release with stretching alone
▪️Emotional stress creates physical holding patterns

3️⃣ Bottom image (fascial lines & tension chains)

This is the most important part❗️

Instead of isolated “knots,” we see:

▪️Fascial lines (continuous tension pathways)
▪️Restrictions in one area pulling on distant tissues
▪️The body behaving like a tensegrity structure, not stacked parts

⚠️ Key insight: Fascia doesn’t fail locally — it fails systemically.

👉🏻 A restriction under the skin can:

❌️ Distort muscle function
❌️ Compress nerves or vessels
❌️ Alter joint mechanics
❌️ Disrupt proprioception (balance)
❌️ Dysregulate the nervous system

So many health issues stem from Fascia restrictions. Try holistic bodywork to get back on track 🙌

The body doesn't experience life in a compartmentalized way. Physical, emotional, and energetic layers are always interacting. One cannot operate without the other.

Shouldn't your bodywork be the same? All-inclusive vs. a limited experience = very different results.

When therapies are intentionally combined, healing becomes more efficient, more embodied, and more sustainable.

But don't worry, it's not your job to know which therapies you need - that's mine!

After listening to your presenting symptoms, wellness goals, and health history, we create a catered plan of care to get you where you want to be - pain-free, rejuvenated, healthy, and happy ✨️

As Thanksgiving approaches, I’ve been reflecting on something that feels really meaningful to me.

Most people don’t talk about this, but our lives tend to move in these quiet 7-year chapters - seasons where we grow, break open, learn, and eventually become someone new.

Seven years ago, I walked away from my old job in the nursing home world and enrolled in massage therapy school. I had no idea what I was stepping into. I just knew I needed a different life… one that felt more aligned, more alive, more me.

Since then?

I’ve started businesses.
I’ve gone through divorce and found love again.
I’ve raised my son while reshaping my entire identity.
I’ve built healing spaces, created programs, and helped people in ways I never imagined seven years ago.
I’ve done deep trauma healing and rebuilt my health.
I’ve learned more about the human body, the nervous system, the psyche, and the soul than I ever thought possible.
I’ve earned certifications, walked through initiations, and survived seasons that felt like they would break me… but instead, they became the seasons that remade me.

Looking back, this entire 7-year chapter was about growth, healing, and transformation... in every possible form.

So today, I’m grateful.

Grateful for the woman I used to be who took the first step.
Grateful for every lesson that stretched me.
Grateful for the people who supported me.
Grateful for the hard moments that taught me how strong I really am.
Grateful for the new beginning that’s forming right now... because it feels like a big one.

If you’re reading this, I hope you’re able to take a moment and appreciate the chapter you’re in… even if it feels messy, unfamiliar, or uncomfortable. You might be in the middle of a cycle that’s preparing you for your next becoming.

Here’s to gratitude, growth, and the next season ahead. 🤍

Happy Thanksgiving. 🧡✨

I don't know about you, but this time of year tends to take a toll on my energy levels and physical motivation 🥱

The days are getting darker.
The temperature is getting colder.
Waking up in the morning gets harder and harder.
The sweets and comfort foods appear more and more.
And the thought of starting a new fitness routine seems to get pushed to the backburner because, "I'll just wait until after the holidays when it's the new year."

Sound familiar?

The fall and winter seasons ask us to slow down.
Rest is great. Taking time to go within is great.
This time of year can feel heavy and draining. And that's okay.
Feeling like your battery is running on empty is totally normal.

But we can (and should!) do something about that! We can amp up your cellular energy easily, and enjoyably! 🤩

My Metabolism and Vital Energy Body Fusions are designed to help you recharge and find that pep in your step again. ✨

Combining PEMF therapy, infrared heat, doTERRA oils - Lemon and MetaPWR - lymphatic drainage massage, and detoxifying mud create a relaxing mega-charge to your cells so you can feel refreshed and ready to move through the holiday season💥
