🎧 June is Audiobook Appreciation Month! 🎧
As an avid audiobook lover myself, I know there's nothing quite like getting lost in a great story while taking a break from the demands of everyday life.
Did you know that during your massage at Well-Being Massage I can play your audiobook through my speaker while I customize your session? Whether you're catching up on the latest thriller, enjoying a fantasy adventure, listening to a self-development book, or finally finishing that book that's been sitting in your library for months, you're welcome to bring it along!
Massage is all about creating a relaxing experience that fits your needs, and for some people, that means complete silence. For others, it's unwinding with a favorite audiobook while relieving tension and stress.
If you're booking a session this month, let me know what you're listening to—I'm always looking for new recommendations! 📚✨

What's the best audiobook you've listened to recently?

And the personal reason is because I want to and I deserve it!

Ever feel like your massage therapist is working right on your kidney when they’re in your low back?

Good news - they’re not touching your kidney at all.

That deep, achy spot near your lower ribs is often a muscle called the quadratus lumborum (QL). It sits deep in the low back and helps stabilize your spine, support posture, and assist with bending and side-to-side movement.

Because of where it lives, QL work can feel:
• very deep
• a little “inside”
• intense but relieving
• like pressure near the flank or rib area

That sensation surprises a lot of people, but it’s completely normal.

This muscle often gets cranky from:
• long hours of sitting or standing
• favoring one side of the body
• stress and guarding
• low back or hip tension

When your therapist works there, the goal isn’t to poke anything important - it’s to help that deep stabilizing muscle soften so your low back can finally relax.

If something ever feels too intense, always speak up. Massage should feel productive, not alarming.
Sometimes the weirdest sensations come from muscles you didn’t even know you had.

You don’t need a “new you.” Your body just needs a little support. 🤍

So much of wellness messaging makes it sound like your body is broken, behind, or something you need to overhaul. But most of the time, what your body is actually asking for is much simpler than that.

Here’s what support really looks like:

• Consistency over intensity - small, regular care goes further than waiting for a breaking point
• Listening instead of pushing - responding to tension early instead of powering through it
• Recovery without guilt - rest and care don’t need to be “earned”

Your body isn’t failing you - it’s adapting. And with the right support, it can soften, recover, and function better without needing a complete reset.

Double tap if this feels like permission you needed today - and let me know in the comments what kind of support your body could use right now.
