Are you noticing you clench and don’t know why?
We tend to clench when in focus or stressed 😬

The temporalis and masseter muscles (the muscles responsible for chewing) can become overworked, while tension throughout the neck and surrounding tissues may add to the discomfort and even headaches.

A few things you can try today:
• Let your jaw relax. Lips together, teeth apart.
• Place your tongue gently on the roof of your mouth.
• Take a few slow breaths and consciously release tension in your face and shoulders.

At SPACE, our Headspace sessions incorporate focused massage, jaw and facial work, neck and shoulder techniques, and optional intraoral work to help address areas contributing to tension.

Ready to give your head and neck a little SPACE?

Your hips aren’t necessarily “getting old.” Your physiology is changing.

One reason we’re seeing more women experience new or worsening hip, joint, muscle and tendon pain during perimenopause is the shift in estrogen.

As the ovaries begin producing estrogen less consistently, levels can fluctuate and eventually decline. Estrogen plays a role in muscle function, connective tissue, inflammation and pain processing.

So when estrogen changes, your body’s ability to tolerate stress and recover can change too. Research links the menopausal transition with increased musculoskeletal pain and changes in the way the nervous system, immune system and musculoskeletal tissues respond to pain. (PubMed⁠)

And that can make an old injury feel different, make your hips feel tighter, or make recovery from training take longer.

That doesn’t mean hormones are the ONLY cause of your pain.

Your training load, strength, sleep, stress, previous injuries and movement patterns all matter.

If your hips, back or body have started feeling different lately, book with us and let’s figure out how we can support you through the change.

Today is picture day at SPACE Bodywork + Recovery 📸 🥰

I woke up reflecting on our first picture day. This was my fav picture we took, it captured US. It will always be my first team.

That day I repurposed my cancelled non refundable wedding photographer. I swallowed a lot and put my energy into creating a new commitment. SPACE Bodywork + Recovery

I am ecstatic to have two therapists with me since day one. They have witnessed our growth, been consistent, and believe strongly in what we do. Today we have 8 therapists! I’m sure time and change will always shift our team but I am lucky to get the opportunity to work with such incredible people and listen to what they teach me. 🌱

I can’t wait to see our pictures with the best photographer OnDream Media

What a dream 🖤

We want to understand what your body is telling us.

Where you feel it, how you move, what your daily life looks like, when it started, and what makes it better or worse all give us clues.

We ask questions, look at movement, and connect the dots so your bodywork has more purpose.
