Inviting you to read my Manual Lymyphatic Drainage (MLD) article I posted on Medium.

I started practicing this along side massage and MAT this year and am really loving the results clients are experiencing.

Let me know what you think? Have you heard of MLD? What were your results?

Listen to this and try this on.

Taking a break and wanted to share my room for the weekend.
I’m treating United Brachial Plexus Network (UBPN) camp attendees that are working with Brachial Plexus injuries this weekend. I will be treating 56 people in this great community and assisting them in gaining more use of their shoulders, elbows, wrists and hands.
Awesome photos snagged from Tyler Johnson

This was a great session to continue to open up the posterior chain in time for getting back into the gym, ensuring neuromuscular integrity in his back and glutes.
It’s not how strong you can make your body that sets you up for success in the gym. You’re only as good as the sum of your parts and they all have to function together.
Muscle Activation Techniques prepares your body for what you ask of it by getting the brain and the muscles talking better for the best results and tolerating YOU without breaking down from your workouts.

How can you increase your gym readiness?

*Start slow and build as your body can handle the stresses, and increase the resistance slow.
*Pay attention to your form-it shows you what joint(s) are having a difficult time in stress.

Knees and ankles will affect you hip hinge more than you think.

See and feel what’s happening vs “what had happened was”

To me this is being more proactive than reactive to the forces that we are asking out structures to tolerate.

Don’t wait for a tweak before you address the creak.

Want a strong foundation? Or want to know what that can feel like?

Seek out a bodywork that ensures each muscle has the connection.

On my day off I treated myself to a massage from Sara and a Blu Room session in Washington, MO.

I needed some care for my tired body and a reboot from the past two weeks of sleeping poorly and coughing continuously.
I had a mix of a head cold that wasn’t bad enough to slow me down but enough to make me tired and my body fatigued plus allergies blooming.

I decided I’d welcome Spring by giving my body a treat to flush out the funk in my muscles and the Blu room for a unique boost, priming myself to handle what is to come with the season.

I like how I feel after her work followed by the Blu room light therapy, paired with the sound-20 mins blew by.

I was ready for the rest of my day and continued to feel like this was the best drive to start the day right.

This is my second time getting the 3-pack BluRoom package and am looking forward to the next few weeks.

One of my favorite places and practitioners for health and wellness.
Check it out!
