Helping Hands Massage

✨ Hey y’all
Just a quick heads up that I’ll be out for a long weekend & will not be responding to any emails or messages until next Wednesday 😊

Online booking is always open & if you send anything through over the next few days, I’ll get back to all messages next week. Have a great weekend!!

✨It’s that time again!!
There have been some new faces around here, so I’m just dropping in to (re)introduce myself to y’all 😊
I’m beyond grateful to have you here, following along!

- Lindsay, LMT

✨If you've been following along for a little while, but haven't been on the table yet...check out what some of my clients have to say👇

I especially love hearing when clients say they feel seen/heard by me🥰 While I may be the professional, you know your body best & I believe in working with you to achieve amazing results! Believe me...I've received massages where I feel like the MT did not even listen to what I asked for extra work on, which is why I try to do better by YOU!

Are you ready to have your needs listened to?!? Then let's get you on the schedule😊😊

✨As the temperatures are dropping, I want to take a moment to highlight heat therapy with hot stones -
Hot stones (Basalt, Himalayan, or any other variation) are often marketed purely for relaxation. However, heat is one of the most effective therapeutic tools we have in bodywork 🙌🏻
Here’s how hot stones can be used very intentionally in sessions👇🏻
• Increase local circulation through vasodilation, which helps tissues feel less stiff & more receptive to deeper techniques
• Stimulate thermoreceptors that interact with pain pathways, helping reduce pain signaling & protective muscle guarding
• Temporarily increase tissue pliability, especially when paired with gentle movement or applied pressure
• Warmth signals safety to the brain, activating the parasympathetic (aka rest & relax) nervous system, which is often when muscle tone starts to soften
• Clients frequently tolerate pressure better after heat because the nervous system is already in a much calmer state

This is why I believe hot stones are a truly underrated therapeutic tool for a massage session💆🏻‍♀️When it comes to Himalayan salt stones specifically, one of the biggest benefits is the 84 trace minerals found naturally occurring in the salt…which is absorbed through the skin & benefits your body!!

✨No matter what issue you bring to me, my first goal is always your comfort & working to relax your nervous system so your body can readily receive the healing work it craves🥰

✨Back-to-school can also mean back-to-stress!!
New schedules, early morning rush & a calendar packed with all kinds of activities have a way of landing right in your neck and shoulders…and I feel it on the table each Fall 🍂 This is exactly when a consistent massage routine matters most!

Don’t wait until you’re totally overwhelmed to take care of yourself (remember, you can’t pour from an empty cup 😉) - book now & stay ahead of the chaos!
