Everyone responds to discomfort differently 😅

Why massage the glutes??

The glutes 🍑 are a complex group of muscles responsible for hip stability, posture, movement, and low back support.

Tightness or dysfunction in these muscles can contribute to pain and movement restrictions throughout the body.

The glutes are considered a sensitive area according to the CMTO (College of Massage Therapists of Ontario) standards of practice which means express written consent must be obtained and including them must be indicated (a pre-existing condition which the therapist determines would be beneficial to treat this area)

You will always be informed on the benefits, side effects, draping and your consent is ALWAYS voluntary so if you don't like something, or it doesnt feel good let me know and I will stop immediately.

⚠️ Disclaimer: Pressure is always adjusted to each client's comfort and tolerance. This reel is for entertainment purposes.

🤣🤣🤣 story of my lifeeee 🫠🫠

05/26/2026

I was talking to a patient I had today about how the were expanding their business and they said "I'm really feeling blessed right now Lindie"

Sometimes it's not often you hear the positive stuff but this made me genuinely so happy for them and had me thinking.. I'm feeling pretty blessed right now myself!

4 years ago, making the decision as a single mom newly separated to go back to school at 30 years old, commute for 3 hours round trip every day and make the comittment to go back to school.

So many late nights, tears were shed and my resilience and motivation was tested almost every single day but I stuck with it because I LOVE IT.

Getting to connect with people, people who trust me enough to be vulnerable and give them a soft place to land on a hard day.

Someone to celebrate with, bring your babies so I can meet them, show me your ultrasound pictures when you find out you're expecting. Transitioning through your career, navigating a troubling diagnosis.

Coming to me when you need to heal.. your mind, your soul and your body.

Resting with me and taking a deep breath and sigh of relief. Being so burnt out that the only hour you take for yourself is spent on my table.

You might actually fall asleep and miss the whole thing, but that's kind of the point isn't it. I'm there for you the entire time. Creating space for you to heal.

It is truly a privilege

Palliative care will always hold a special place in my heart. See this post by the RMTAO highlighting the benefits of therapeutic massage in this stage of life.

This week is National Hospice Palliative Care Week, a time to recognize the importance of compassionate, high-quality healthcare across Canada.

Massage therapy plays a valuable role in palliative care by helping to reduce pain, ease anxiety and fatigue, and improve quality of life for patients.

This week highlights the meaningful impact you can have on end-of-life comfort and emotional support.

Learn how massage therapy can support patients and their families in our infographic below.
