Mental health and massage therapy are so deeply intertwined, and we wanted to shout out NAMI and their walk this weekend at Ada Hayden! They’re one of the best resources for mental health in our community; support a nonprofit and find comfort in others as we walk to support mental health awareness!
Welcome to NAMIWalks Central Iowa!
Every step taken along this route represents hope, healing, awareness, and the power of community. As you follow the walk path, remember that you are joining thousands of individuals across the country who are standing together to support mental health, reduce stigma, and ensure that no one faces a mental health challenge alone.
This route is more than a path—it is a symbol of the journey toward recovery, resilience, and connection. Along the way, take a moment to reflect on the lives being changed through education, support groups, advocacy, and peer-led services provided by NAMI Central Iowa.
Whether you are walking in honor of a loved one, in memory of someone lost, for your own recovery journey, or simply because you believe in the importance of mental health, your presence makes a difference. Every step sends a powerful message: Mental health matters, recovery is possible, and community creates impact.
We look forward to walking with you on October 17th! Together, we are building a stronger, more compassionate Central Iowa—one step at a time.
Community + Action = Impact
