Massage is Life, LLC: The Traveling Massage Therapist

08/21/2026

When things got too slow here, I had to really think about what was next.

For years since the pandemic, I had been trying to rebuild—trying to get things back to where they were, trying different things, pushing harder and hoping business would eventually return to what I once knew.

But at some point I realized…it was time to stop only trying to rebuild what was and start creating what could be next.

I decided I wanted to combine my love for massage therapy + my love for traveling and create new opportunities beyond state lines. ✈️💆🏾‍♀️

Now y’all KNOW I love home. 😂 Buffalo will always be home, and NO, I’m not moving! But I also know I can’t stay stagnant.

Because when something you’ve built, poured into and worked so hard for can no longer fully support you, it gets hard to keep pushing the same way. And one thing I refuse to do is fall out of love with what I do just because business got slow.

The dream of becoming a multi-state licensed massage therapist actually started a couple of years ago. I talked about it, researched it, planned it… and finally in May I pushed myself to take the MBLEX so I could officially start the process of becoming licensed in other states.

I PASSED. 🙌🏾

And the process began.

I also started my YouTube channel and, as you may have noticed, added The Traveling Massage Therapist to my name because this next chapter is becoming a real part of the Massage Is Life brand.

But this isn’t JUST about traveling for business.

Travel has always been something I genuinely love. I’ve been blessed to experience so many beautiful places over the years, but when business slowed down, traveling had to take a back seat too. So part of this journey is also about getting back to ME and getting back to something I love.

This next chapter is a combination of business + personal.

Building new opportunities.
Seeing new places.
Experiencing life.
Doing the work I love.
And continuing to prioritize self-care along the way.

Work Hard. Travel Often. Live Fully. Prioritize Self-Care. ✈️💜

In 2027, Massage Is Life will begin traveling and hosting pop-ups in:

📍 Maryland
📍 Georgia
📍 Florida
📍 Tennessee
📍 Ohio

And Buffalo will STILL be home base. 💜

I’ll also be taking Massage for a Cause on the road—using massage therapy to raise funds and awareness for my nonprofit in memory of my angel Jordyn, Jordyn’s Light Inc. for pregnancy and infant loss, while connecting with communities beyond Western New York.

Sometimes expansion doesn’t mean abandoning what you built.

Sometimes it means realizing you can’t keep waiting for everything to go back to what it used to be.

Sometimes you have to create something new.

Almost 9 years in, and I’m still finding new ways to evolve. ✈️💆🏾‍♀️💜

The best is yet to come. 💜✨

Sometimes you don’t need “a massage.” You need the right amount of massage. 😂🙌🏾

At Massage Is Life, I offer sessions from 20 minutes all the way up to 3 HOURS because everybody’s needs—and attention span on the table 😂—are different.

✨ 20 Minutes — Quick, targeted relief. One specific area.

✨ 30 Minutes — Focused work when you need a little more time.

✨ 45 Minutes — Great for a few focus areas, but still not intended as a full-body session.

✨ 60 Minutes — The classic. Enough time for a customized full-body session or more focused therapeutic work.

✨ 75 Minutes — That extra 15 minutes really DOES make a difference. 😌

✨ 90 Minutes — My highly recommended full-body session. More time to slow down, address multiple areas and actually settle into the session without feeling rushed.

✨ 2 Hours — For when 90 minutes just isn’t enough. Full-body, unhurried and customized from beginning to end.

✨ 3 HOURS — Yes… THREE. HOURS. 😂 For my people who want the ultimate extended massage experience.

There is no “best” duration across the board—the best session is the one that gives us enough time to actually address what YOU came in for.

But no matter which duration you choose, consistency is key. One massage can feel amazing, but regular massage is where you really start to see the benefit of making body care part of your routine.

And if you regularly get to the end of your session saying,
“Dang, it’s over already?”

Baby… it might be time to book longer. 😂

Temporary schedule update 💜

For now, I’ll be reducing the number of days I’m in the office while business is slower and making room to work something more established outside of Massage Is Life.

Instead of trying to work Massage Is Life and something else on the same days just for the sake of keeping more days open, I’m condensing my schedule to Monday, Wednesday, Friday and select Saturdays.

As things pick back up, I’ll absolutely revisit and adjust my availability.

I still have so many things I’m working on for Massage Is Life and so many business goals I want to fund, while also making sure my regular bills are taken care of. For right now, this is simply the plan that makes the most sense.

Because my days are more condensed, booking in advance is highly recommended, especially if you need a Saturday appointment.

Massage Is Life is still here. 💜 Just a little less availability for now.
