🌊 What’s All This About? — Trigger Points

You may have heard someone call them “knots”—those tender spots that can feel sore when you press on them
and sometimes even send discomfort to another area of the body.

These are often called trigger points.

A trigger point is a small, tight area within a muscle that stays contracted instead of fully relaxing.
They can develop from overuse, repetitive movements, poor posture, stress, injury, or even holding the body in one position for long periods of time.

One of the unique things about trigger points is that they can create referred pain,
meaning the discomfort you feel isn’t always coming from the place where the trigger point actually is.
For example, a trigger point in the shoulder may contribute to tension or discomfort that travels into the neck or even the head.

At Tranquil Tides Massage & Bodywork, we don’t believe the answer is always to push harder into a tender spot.
In fact, excessive pressure can sometimes cause the muscle to tighten even more as a protective response.

Instead, we listen to how your body responds. Gentle, sustained pressure, working with the surrounding muscles and fascia,
improving circulation, and encouraging the nervous system to relax are often more effective ways to help a trigger point release.

Every body responds differently, which is why your session is always customized to your comfort and your needs.

The goal isn’t to win a battle with a knot.

The goal is to help your muscles relax, restore healthy movement, and leave your body feeling better. 🌊🤍

“Rest is not something you have to earn.”

A little reminder for anyone who needs it today. 🤍

You DO NOT have to finish everything first.

You DO NOT have to wait until you are completely exhausted.

You DO NOT have to justify taking time to care for yourself.

Rest can be quiet.
Self-care can be simple.
And sometimes, doing less is exactly what you need.

Take a little time for yourself today.

You deserve a place on your own list, too. 🌊

🌊 What’s All This About? — Intentional Breathing During Massage

Do you need to breathe a certain way during your massage?

No complicated technique is required.

But sometimes, when we’re stressed or when an area feels tender, we hold our breath without even realizing it.

At Tranquil Tides Massage & Bodywork, we may gently remind you to breathe when we notice your body bracing.
A slow, comfortable breath can be a simple cue to soften and settle.

When you allow your breath to flow naturally, it may help your nervous system shift into a calmer state.
As your body feels safer and more relaxed, muscles often become less guarded, allowing the massage to feel more comfortable and effective.

Even one slow exhale can signal to your body that it’s okay to let go, helping ease unnecessary muscle guarding and creating space for relaxation.
Many people also notice that steady breathing helps them stay present, release tension more easily, and simply enjoy the experience.

You don’t have to force deep breaths or “do relaxation correctly.” Just breathe in a way that feels comfortable for you.

We’ll take care of the rest. 🌊🤍

🌊 SELF-CARE SUNDAY— CHOOSE YOUR RESET

Self-care doesn’t have to be complicated.

Sometimes it’s simply noticing what you need today. 🤍

So… what kind of reset are you choosing?

🌊 A slow morning with nowhere to rush
🌿 A walk and some fresh air
📖 Quiet time with a good book
🛁 A long shower or warm bath
💆‍♀️ Time to care for your body
😴 An early night and extra rest

Or maybe your self-care looks completely different today.

Drop your choice below—or share what you’re doing for yourself this Sunday. 🤍

Whatever you choose, make a little room for YOU today!!!

Looking for a little more time in the tides? 🌊

Sometimes the appointment you’re hoping for isn’t showing in our booking portal—but plans can change and openings do pop up. 🤍

If you’d love to come in sooner, simply add yourself to our waitlist. When a cancellation becomes available, we’ll reach out to those on the waitlist first.

It’s an easy way to let us know, “If something opens up, I’d love to be there.”

So if your ideal day or time isn’t currently available, don’t give up on it just yet. Add yourself to the waitlist and you may find your way onto our schedule sooner than expected.

Details how to add to our waitlist:
1. Go to our online booking portal
2. Book your appointment like you normally would by choosing your session type first and then the next available appointment will appear. To the right of that you will see the words “ADD ME TO THE WAITLIST”
3. Click on that tab and follow the prompts to be added to our waitlist.
4. If you’d prefer just call us and we can also add you to our waitlist. 360-836-4114
