Happy Pride Month! 🌈

Today is a celebration.

A celebration of authenticity. Of self-expression. Of not having to hide who you are. Of living openly, boldly, and unapologetically as yourself.

As a reminder, Blue Heron Bodywork is proudly LGBTQ+ owned, and creating a welcoming, affirming space is at the heart of everything we do.

My goal has always been to make Blue Heron Bodywork a safe haven for weary souls—a place where you can exhale, let your guard down, and know that you are welcome exactly as you are.

Every body is welcome on my table. Every identity is worthy of care. Every person deserves a space where they feel seen, respected, and safe.

This month, and every month, I celebrate the beautiful diversity of our community and the courage it takes to live authentically.

Happy Pride ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🩵🤍🩷

As a reminder, I will be out of the office beginning this Friday, May 29, at noon. I will be gone until Wednesday, June 10. During this time, I may not respond to messages as quickly as I usually do, but I promise I will get back to you!

I figured with so many new faces around here, now feels like a good time to properly reintroduce myself.

I’m Chelsea — the human behind Blue Heron Bodywork. Former educator, recovering perfectionist, birdwatcher, romance book devourer, yoga lover, proud fur mom, and apparently someone who gets way too emotionally attached to book characters 😂

Most importantly, I’m a massage therapist who genuinely cares about creating a space where people can exhale a little easier.

My practice focuses heavily on prenatal and postpartum care, but I work with all kinds of bodies and all walks of life. I care deeply about making this space feel safe, inclusive, and welcoming — especially for people who may not always feel comfortable in traditional wellness spaces.

A couple things that matter a lot to me:
• community
• kindness over perfection
• supporting local whenever possible
• making healing accessible when I can
• reminding people they deserve care for themselves before they completely burn out

Which brings me to two things:
🎂 My Birthday Flash Sale is officially happening MONDAY!
This is my little way of celebrating another trip around the sun while also making massage a little more accessible. All 60-minute and 90-minute sessions will be discounted for a limited time! Set your alarms because you will never see my sessions at such a deep discount again.

And maybe my favorite thing happening in this community right now:
💙 The Community Massage Fund
Here’s how it works: Any tips left after a session do not go to me personally. Every dollar goes directly into the community fund, which pays for massage sessions for people who otherwise couldn’t afford one right now.
No strings attached. No “earning” it. Just community taking care of community.
The fact that so many of you have supported this idea already means more than I can properly put into words. Truly.

Whether you’re here because you’re pregnant, postpartum, stressed, chronically tense, q***r, overwhelmed, healing, curious, or simply trying to survive adulthood without wearing your shoulders like earmuffs… I’m really glad you’re here.

Thank you for being part of this little corner of the internet 🫶

🎉✨ BIRTHDAY FLASH SALE ✨🎉

Monday, May 18 is my 33rd birthday… and because I’m apparently incapable of resisting the power of the number 3, we’re doing this a little dramatically 💁🏼‍♀️✨️

For 3 hours only, I’ll be offering 33% OFF all 60-minute and 90-minute massage sessions at Blue Heron Bodywork.

That includes:
✨️ Prenatal Massage
✨️ Postpartum Massage
✨️ Therapeutic Massage
✨️ TMJ Massage
✨️ Headache Relief
✨️ and more ✨

If you were around for my Black Friday sale, this will work very similarly!

🕞 SALE WINDOW: Monday, May 18
3:30 PM – 6:30 PM

Once the clock hits 6:30, the sale disappears into the swamp never to be seen again!

When you go to book through my scheduling site: https://blueheronbodywork.glossgenius.com/services

…the services labeled “BIRTHDAY” will be the very first ones at the top of the page! These are the ONLY services included in the sale!

Because this is such a deep discount:
💳 Sessions must be paid in full at booking for ALL clients.
📅 You may schedule appointments up to 3 months in advance.
🪷 There is otherwise no cap on how many you purchase.

If your dream is to buy 12 massages and become a weekly regular all summer long… I support your vision wholeheartedly 😂

Current clients: I’ll send out a reminder text Monday before the sale starts, but truly, if you want to snag these spots, I recommend setting an alarm. This will likely be the deepest discount I ever offer moving forward.

I’m honestly a little speechless.

I contacted the recipient of the last community-funded massage on April 30. Today is May 15, and there has already been enough contributed to fund another session.

I cannot adequately express how grateful I am for this community and the way you continue to show up for one another. Every extra dollar left behind has helped create access to care for someone who may not otherwise have received it, and that means more to me than I can put into words.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Since it has only been about two weeks, I’m going to choose a second recipient from the nominations shared on the last post. There were so many deserving stories and people submitted, and I’m incredibly honored to be able to say yes to another person so soon.

Thank you for making this possible. Truly 💙

EDIT: Huge thanks to everyone who nominated someone. I wish I had the capability to give a massage to everyone who was nominated, but unfortunately that is not the case. I have reached out to the person I have selected. If you were not chosen, please do not be discouraged! I fully believe this community will fund another massage in the near future. Thanks again to all of you!

We’ve reached enough in the community fund to offer a free massage!

If you’re newer here, I don’t accept tips—anything extra goes toward providing a session for someone who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford it. Because of that, I’m able to gift a massage to someone who is pregnant or postpartum and in need of support right now.

I’m opening this up for nominations.

If you have someone in mind, you can share their name (or initials) in the comments and a little about why you’re nominating them. I’m especially hoping to reach someone who may be going through a challenging season, has limited support, or is feeling the weight of this chapter in their body.

I’ll read through the nominations over the next few days and reach out privately to whoever is chosen.

Thank you for helping me make massage accessible to someone who needs it 💙
