Masks are still required! NC EO215 requires masks for healthcare settings, and the NC Massage Board has issued instructions to consider ourselves health care under the CDC guidelines. Failure to comply will result in termination of the session AND a no show/ late fee charge.
Essential oils have been touted for treatments of everything from anxiety to cancer (so much so that the FDA has had to slap a few companies for their unscientific claims), but that doesn't mean we can't learn from their properties. Many plants develop their own forms of "immune systems", which is what those outrageous claims rely on. Certain proteins may have promise for medicine, but they have to be isolated, tested, and screened for safety before they can be marketed as such. However, when those proteins are found, they can be exciting news- such as a study in mice using a protein called farnesol, found in certain plants and oils, which helps protect the brains of mice against the type of damage caused by Parkinson's. While studies still need to be done in humans, checking plants for cures they have had millions of years to develop may never be done.
Are you good at keeping your New Year's Resolutions? Do you have a good system for making sure you keep up with the new habits you're trying to build? Up to 40% of your daily actions are habits- actions that are so automated you don't even make decisions about how or even why you're doing them.
If you need help unraveling how to make solid, reliable habits, check out my program here. DIY it with workbooks to help guide you through understanding and making plans, or get guidance with a 4 session coaching program. Not sure which? DIYer's can apply their purchase to coaching within 30 days.
FAQ: Will I be required to wear a mask? A: Yes. Even with vaccinations, spending an hour in close proximity is a risk.
Q: I've recovered from COVID. Can I get a massage at your clinic? A: Yes, as long as at least 3 weeks (21 days) have elapsed since you had symptoms (excluding Long COVID fatigue, shortness of breath, and taste/smell issues).
Q: Will you be taking new clients soon? A: We are now seeing referrals from existing clients, who are vaccinated. If you have received a gift card, or been sent by a friend, and have all of the recommended doses of your vaccine, we can set up a time to see you.
We are working on very limited schedules for safety. We are not offering weekly discounts at this time to help support therapists and defray costs of safety needs. You can still purchase packages at a discount. We are not doing online booking at this time, until we have a better idea of the ongoing circumstances.
We are now seeing vaccinated referrals from existing clients.
Thank you for your continued support and we apologize for any inconvenience.

Please read over the safety requirements below. A refusal to participate in these at the time of your appointment will be considered a no-show session and you will be charged 50% no show fee.
We are taking clients who are fully vaccinated and referred by current clients, as well as medical referrals from other health practitioners.

We are seeing clients in a very limited capacity.
You will be expected to comply with these new requirements for all sessions:

  • Limited sessions, one therapist working per day,

  • Longer times between sessions to allow cleaning and air circulation,

  • New health checks before each appointment:

  • Masks required for BOTH client and therapist. Yes, this means you. We recommend against masks with vents, both for therapist safety (they let air out, defeating the purpose of a mask in close quarters) and for comfort in face down situations.

  • Pre session questions regarding risk factors (for your health and safety)

  • Pre session questions regarding risk behaviors like masks and self quarantine (for therapists' health and safety)
