Now more than ever, self-management tools are crucial for anyone experiencing persistent or reoccurring body pain. When returning to massage therapy, consider booking a Discovery appointment which has a heavy focus on movement and self-care, but still includes some hands on. If you are concerned about direct contact, we can do a movement therapy session where social distancing can be maintained the entire time. Movement therapy sessions are not billable as massage therapy but will be offered at a heavily discounted rate. Virtual options are available if you feel safer at home or in case we need to temporarily close again.

Lessons from the Pandemic
In these challenging times, we’ve got to keep moving, no matter what. How can we do that? Stop sitting so much! Most adults need 150 minutes of moderately vigorous aerobic activity a week, and two sessions of resistance training. Walking is great for every body, mind and spirit. Exercise also provides connections, and community is important to maintaining good habits and good mental health. We should be focusing on broader wellness, which involves more than just physical exercise. It also encompasses emotional, cognitive, social and spiritual health. And remember, reading, meditation/prayer and rest are important, too!

Book Club: Untamed by Glennon Doyle
Soulful and uproarious, forceful and tender, Untamed is both a memoir and a galvanizing wake-up call. It offers a piercing, electrifying examination of the restrictive expectations women are issued from birth; shows how hustling to meet those expectations leaves women feeling dissatisfied and lost; and reveals that when we quit abandoning ourselves and instead abandon the world’s expectations of us, we become women who can finally look at ourselves and recognize: There She Is.
Benefits of Lawn Irrigation
Dragging a hose out to the yard every time you want to water can be pain, and you may find that you can’t always reach all areas of your yard. A sprinkler system provides many benefits, including: 1) It looks much better than having a hose snaking across your yard. 2) An automated sprinkler system means you can water your lawn at the best time to ensure proper absorption. 3) You’ll save money on water bills. 4) You’ll help prevent weeds and diseases by watering at the roots. 5) Installing a sprinkler system will increase the value of your home.
Product Review: Meta Patch
The Meta Patch optimizes energy metabolism in a totally drug-free, non-invasive way. The brain plays a central role in balancing and regulating energy metabolism and integrates information about energy intake and body energy stores. This is transferred to specialized neurons in the hypothalamus and brainstem. To maintain energy homeostasis (keeping a stable environment), the brain regulates various aspects of body metabolism. The Meta Patch helps optimize neuroplasticity and the harmonization of this communication loop between the hypothalamus and brainstem by generating neuro-signals that are decoded by the central nervous system, based on the “pattern theory” of haptic neuro coding.
