Sometimes it’s not so obvious.. but regular massages can improve your everyday life. It could be for mental health 🧠 physical reasons 💪🏼 or simply just to take a moment to slow down 🫠

The latissimus dorsi is an absolute UNIT of a muscle. It doesn’t just wake up and choose shoulder violence... it reaches into your arm, your ribs, your thoracolumbar fascia, your spine, your pelvis... basically it’s sitting there like, “Don’t worry everyone, I’ll tighten EVERYTHING.” 😅

Then people come in saying, “Can you just rub my neck?” 🤷🏻‍♀️

Meanwhile I’m over here looking at their body like... 🤔

“...Sir... your neck filed the complaint. It is not the suspect.” 🧐

That’s what fascinates me about massage therapy. Pain is a TERRIBLE GPS. The place that hurts is often just the coworker that’s been forced to cover everyone’s shift for the last six months. 🥴

Our bodies are compensation machines. One shoulder rotates inward... the neck starts helping... the upper traps clock in for unpaid overtime... the rhomboids are filing HR complaints... the low back is questioning every life decision it has ever made... and the lats are just standing in the corner pretending they had nothing to do with it. 🫣

The human body is beautifully ridiculous. It almost never follows the little anatomy charts we memorized in school. It just creates the most elaborate game of muscular dominoes imaginable... and then dares us to figure out where the first domino actually fell. That’s why I’ll always be fascinated by this profession. 🤓

📌not my words, not my pictures, but a damn good post! 👏🏼

Our first candle, and my absolute favorite.. a crystal sugar/creamer set turned into a beeswax candle and a vase for wildflowers that my children pick for me 🥹

Did you know, aside from physical benefits, massage therapy also provides numerous mental and emotional benefits? Here are some below👇🏼

Deep Relaxation
When people become relaxed, their heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen consumption, and salivary cortisol levels decrease. This helps reduce stress and anxiety, which are the two leading causes of depression.

Better Sleep
Massages aren’t only useful for in the moment relaxation. Massages have been shown to improve sleep patterns on all types of people, including children, and adults that suffer from insomnia, fibromyalgia, migraines, and more.

Increased Happiness
Massage therapy has been known to lower stress, decreased anxiety, and reduce irritability. Along with increasing brain serotonin and dopamine, the combination of these effects lead to a happier individual. Being a happier person can have an infinite number of effects on their personal life and the lives of those around them. While scheduling regular massages isn’t financially plausible for everyone, it should be carefully considered for people looking for a holistic way of improving their mental health.
