Getting a massage can do you a world of good. And getting massage frequently can do even more. This is the beauty of bodywork. Taking part in this form of regularly scheduled self-care can play a huge part in how healthy you'll be and how youthful you'll remain with each passing year. Budgeting time and money for bodywork at consistent intervals is truly an investment in your health. And remember: just because massage feels like a pampering treat doesn't mean it is any less therapeutic. Consider massage appointments a necessary piece of your health and wellness plan, and work with your therapist to establish a treatment schedule that best meets your needs. Keeping Touch Massage

💬 COMMUNICATION CAN CHANGE THE ENTIRE MASSAGE.

A therapist can have amazing hands, great technique, perfect pressure and years of experience…

But if we don’t understand YOU, we can still give you the wrong massage.

That’s why communication matters.

Tell us what hurts.
Tell us what feels good.
Tell us what doesn’t.
Tell us your pressure preference.
Tell us about previous injuries or surgeries.
Tell us what you’re hoping to feel when you get off that table.

And therapists—ASK QUESTIONS. 🎯

Don’t just hear “my neck hurts” and move on.

Which side?
How long?
How intense?
What movements bother it?
What has helped before?

Pay attention to the things clients don’t say, too—the body language, facial expressions, breathing, tension and overall energy.

The better the information, the better we can LISTEN. ADAPT. CUSTOMIZE.

Communication shouldn’t stop at intake either.

Before the session: create the game plan.
During the session: communicate and adjust.
After the session: evaluate and improve the next one.

Massage should be a collaboration between the person receiving the work and the person providing it.

Because nobody knows exactly what you’re experiencing better than YOU.

And our job as therapists is to listen closely enough to turn that information into the best experience we possibly can. 💆🏽‍♂️🔥

Clients: What’s ONE thing you wish more massage therapists asked you before your session? 👇🏽

08/26/2026

The massage isn’t the only thing your client is paying for.

They’re paying for the entire experience—from the moment they book, to how you greet them, how your space feels, the comfort of your table, the temperature, the music, your communication, your bodywork, and how they feel when they leave.

As therapists, we can get so used to our own environment that we stop noticing the little things.

But your client notices.

They chose to spend their hard-earned money with YOU. Make them leave feeling like they received more value than they paid for.

The details aren’t little when they’re the reason someone comes back. 💆🏽‍♂️🔥

🚨 MASSAGE STUDENTS & NEW THERAPISTS — READ THIS BEFORE OPENING YOUR BUSINESS.

I LOVE the ambition. I had it too.

I created the vision for Keeping Touch Massage while I was still in massage school.

I knew I wanted my own business.

But I also knew:

EXPERIENCE IS KING. 👑

So instead of rushing straight into entrepreneurship, I went and got my reps.

Different bodies.
Different personalities.
Different pressure preferences.
Different complaints.
Different expectations.
Different challenges.

Client after client after client.

I learned bodywork—but I also learned something equally important:

How to SERVE people.

How to listen.
How to communicate.
How to conduct an intake.
How to make someone comfortable.
How to receive feedback.
How to handle mistakes.
How to pay attention to the little details that completely change someone’s experience.

Because when you own the business, everything represents YOU.

Your touch represents you.
Your communication represents you.
Your professionalism represents you.
And those reviews?

YOUR NAME is attached to them.

So don’t mistake patience for playing small.

Sometimes working under somebody else is exactly where you’re supposed to be while you’re stacking the experience necessary to eventually build something GREAT.

Get paid to learn.
Get paid to practice.
Get paid to make mistakes.
Get paid to sharpen your customer service.
Get paid to encounter hundreds of different bodies.

GET YOUR REPS.

Then take the knowledge.
Add your personality.
Add your vision.
Add your signature.

And build something they can’t duplicate. 🔥

Don’t just rush to become a business owner.

Become undeniable at what you do…

Then build the business around THAT. 🎯

How long did you work for someone else before going independent—or did you start on your own immediately?

08/14/2026

I didn’t create my massage style by trying to copy somebody else’s massage.

I studied concepts.

Lomi Lomi taught me FLOW.

Thai massage taught me LEVERAGE.

Sports massage taught me EFFICIENCY.

Deep tissue and trigger-point work taught me PRESSURE — and also made me question how much pressure is actually necessary.

Then years of working with different bodies taught me how important ANGLES, ADAPTATION and INTUITION really are.

I took what resonated…

Tested it.

Adjusted it.

Refined it.

Added hot stones 🔥

And over 13+ years, it evolved into what I call:

CUSTOM SWEDISH MASSAGE.

My foundation comes down to four things:

FLOW. PRESSURE. LEVERAGE. ANGLES.

Everything else adapts to the person underneath my hands.

That’s the difference between learning techniques and developing a craft.

You can learn from everybody without becoming a copy of anybody.

Study the principles.
Understand WHY something works.
Practice.
Experiment.
Refine.

And eventually…

CREATE YOUR OWN SIGNATURE. 🎯

What styles or modalities have influenced the way YOU work?

07/20/2026

Your body isn’t your enemy.

It’s your oldest teammate.

It’s been fighting for you since the day you were born.

Every breath.
Every heartbeat.
Every illness it recovered from.
Every injury it healed.
Every stressful season it carried you through.

Maybe the pain isn’t your body abandoning you.

Maybe it’s your body communicating with you.

Asking for more rest.
More movement.
Better nutrition.
More recovery.
More self-care.
More love.

What if we stopped waiting until our bodies broke down…

And started appreciating them while they’re still carrying us?

Take care of your body.

It’s been taking care of you your entire life. 💙

One quote from massage school stayed with me for 13+ years:

“If it doesn’t feel good under your hands… it probably doesn’t feel good to the client.” - Jessica Boggs

Simple.

But powerful.

Too many therapists learn techniques…

Then stop evolving.

The goal isn’t to memorize routines.

The goal is to develop awareness.

Not every technique works on every body.

Not every angle works.

Not every pressure works.

The best therapists constantly adapt.

Constantly learn.

Constantly refine their touch.

Every client should teach you something.

Every session is practice.

Never stop improving your craft.

That’s how you separate yourself from average. 🔥

What’s one lesson you learned early in your career that still sticks with you today?

Most people think hot stone massage is just…

“Put the stones on the back and let them sit there.”

Nope. 😂

There are LEVELS to hot stone work.

The way I use hot stones isn’t random.

It’s strategic.

Heat + pressure + flow + timing + coordination.

One forearm working deep into the muscle…

One hand chasing behind with constant heat from the stone…

Creating tension relief and deep relaxation AT THE SAME TIME.

This is why mastering your craft matters.

The little details separate average work from unforgettable work.

Hot stones aren’t just an add-on.

When used properly…

They become ART. 🔥

Question:

Have you ever had a hot stone massage before?

And did your therapist actually USE the stones… or just place them on your back? 👀👇
