In all seriousness- you can definitely keep underwear on but if you want hip work I highly suggest having them off or doing a sports myofascial stretching with clothes on. There’s options for everyone just book the massage 💆‍♀️

To all the moms out there… 🌷

The ones holding everything together.
The ones healing while still helping everyone else heal.
The ones running businesses, raising babies and/or pets, carrying invisible mental loads, showing up exhausted, loving deeply, and still wondering if they’re doing enough…

You are.

Motherhood isn’t just in the big moments.
It’s in the bedtime snuggles, the grocery runs, the worrying, the sacrifices, the late nights, the early mornings, and the million little things no one sees.

This weekend 💝 I hope you slow down long enough to realize how much your presence matters.
Not because you’re perfect.
Because you love so deeply.

To the grieving mothers, the stepmoms, the bonus moms, the single moms, the women longing to become mothers, the women mothering everyone around them… this day holds space for you too. 🤍

Happy Mother’s Day to the women who keep pouring love into this world even when their own cup feels empty sometimes.

You deserve softness too. 🌸

If you’re foam rolling and holding your breath, tensing up, or pushing through pain… your body isn’t releasing—it’s protecting.

Try this instead:
Slow down.
Pause on a tender spot.
Breathe deeply.
Let your body soften around the pressure.

Real release doesn’t come from force… it comes from safety.

When your nervous system feels safe, your body lets go.

(I don’t want to call him a client I want to call him a friend) I had been seeing over the last few months 3 times a week to help with comfort and swelling from ALS passed away on May 1st.

There’s something about being invited into someone’s life during that kind of transition. It’s providing a care unlike any other- and I’ve raised babies!

This month also marks 4 years since my mom passed from cancer. I remember walking into my mother’s hospice room going straight for her. I could tell something was wrong. It’s almost like I could sense that she was scared in her mind. I placed my hand on her head, and within an instant, her fever broke. That moment stayed with me. It reminded me how powerful simple touch energy can be.

I think a lot of this began even earlier—when my grandmother was taken off life support. I was 10 years old and I wanted in that moment was to be there for my grandfather. The others told me I should go but I grabbed his hand and told him I was staying, as he watched the love of his life fade right in front of him. If you’ve ever had to witness something like that, my heart truly goes out to you.

These experiences are a big part of why I do what I do.

To be able to offer even a small sense of peace, comfort, or grounding to someone in their final days—or to their family—is something I will always honor.

I’m still processing a lot, but I know this. Touch matters. Voice matters. Presence matters. And being there for someone—really there—can make more of a difference than we sometimes realize.

🤍Here’s to the ones we lost physically for they are always apart of us. I’ll miss you Dan.
