Welcome!
I love helping people to slow down and decompress.
After doing massage for 31 years, I still enjoy slowing down, honoring the healing spirits, and helping my clients to release tension.
In our fast paced society massage is a blessing that helps us go within to our own peaceful place to become more aware of our body's needs.
Here's my August Newsletter:
Advanced: Higher Level: Beyond beginner or elementary steps, such as hard classes or expert skills. Ahead of Others: Leading the way in progress, growth, or forward-thinking views.
Advanced Massage Beta Course will be October 3/4 then my second time will be November 14/15.
Hello friends,
Welcome to August!
I'm excited to start teaching some of my favorite techniques to Massage Therapists needing Continuing Education Hours!
"Advanced Massage Techniques for Eclectic Bodyworkers"
This course explores the art of working with both light and deep pressure modalities — and how to engage your client’s nervous system to support the healing process.
Topics covered include Reciprocal Inhibition techniques to help release hypertonic muscles, Unique Spinal Twists, Hip Balancing, and Head/Neck Centering Techniques, using the forearms as tools in a confident and mindful way, and Energetic Holds to balance deep tissue work and activate the client’s natural healing mechanism.
Please share with anyone who may be interested!
This is my last month of full-time massage! In September I will be referring some of my clients to other therapists and working only Monday through Wednesday!
Love, Niki

"Listen with ears of tolerance.
See through eyes of compassion.
Speak with the language of love."
-Rumi
Anything that is not love
is only a visitor to your body.
You are not anxious
stress is simply flowing through you.
You are not permanently depressed,
sadness is simply visiting you.
You are not lost,
confusion is simply wandering within you.
And you are not broken,
pain is simply passing through you.
-Tahlia Hunter
Inspired by Rumi's poem "This being human is a guesthouse"
