"I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING… BUT THAT KNOT BETWEEN MY SHOULDER BLADES KEEPS COMING BACK!"

Here are 3 things you may not have tried!

#1 MEET THE WEDGE!

My favorite T-bar for stubborn trigger points around the shoulder blades and ribs. No needles! Its unique shape allows focused, controlled pressure where thumbs and fingers can't reach.

If you are constantly digging into that ONE SORE SPOT
that burns but never goes away, chances are trigger point therapy can help with your chronic pain.

#2 QUESTION YOUR ERGONOMICS!

Reaching for your mouse?
Hunching over your laptop?
Looking down at your phone?
Your daily habits matter!

SMALL ADJUSTMENTS. BIG RESULTS! Sometimes changing how you sit, reach, or sleep can help reduce recurring tension.

#3 COMBINE MOVEMENT WITH MASSAGE
YOGA for mobility and relaxation.
PILATES for strength and stability.
SELF-MASSAGE for managing tension.

MORE THAN TEMPORARY RELIEF. Imagine understanding your pain AND having tools to help manage it.

MORE THAN A MASSAGE!
BOTREE CATALYST IS A 2-month experience that combines:

✓ 4 personalized massages
✓ 10 online movement classes
✓ Priority scheduling
✓ Education + accountability

A couple months ago I challenged you to add a "do-nothing" day to your calendars. How did it go?

Here are some inspiration photos of how I disconnect and reset. Remember, "boredom breeds creativity" like unexpected road trips to Cripple Creek and extra cuddle time with your pets because they won't let you do yoga.

When was the last time you let to yourself take a detour from everyday life?

Does your massage therapist take continuing education classes? YOU BET I DO! This is my 5th AMTA National Convention where I attended refresher classes on the latest Trigger Point therapy research & techniques, TMJD education, GuaSha and Post-surgical support for the hip & knee. Networking with other therapists & educators from all around the country helps me stay on top of the latest developments in massage therapy so you get the best treatments possible!

I’m taking time off.
Not because I’m burned out. I love what I do, and I love how quickly Botree Massage is growing. But sometimes when you’re busy building something you care about (for 6 years), you get so focused on the trees that you forget to step back and look at the forest. So I’m giving myself time to do… nothing. No packed schedule. No catching up. No turning every free day into a productivity project.

Just space.

So here's my inspirational challenge for you. Open your calendar right now and find two days next month where you don't have anything scheduled. Then resist the urge to fill them. Put the word "NOTHING" on the calendar.

The world isn't going to make time for you. You have to make it.

Magnesium Oil: Does It Really Work?

You've probably heard people swear by magnesium oil for sore muscles—but does it actually work? Research on topical magnesium is still evolving. In my latest blog, I cover:

✅ What magnesium oil actually is
✅ What the research says (and doesn't say)
✅ Where to apply it
✅ Who should avoid it
✅ How I use it personally and in my practice

No miracle claims. Just an honest look at the science and my experience as a massage therapist.
