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.

Wishing you a joyful and rejuvenating New Year!

May this year bring you peace, health, and relaxation.

As your massage therapist, I look forward to helping you achieve your wellness goals and enhance your well-being in 2026.

Here’s to a year filled with balance and tranquility. 😌

You move through your day with a little more patience.
You sleep more deeply without tossing and turning.
You react less and breathe more.
You feel grounded instead of frazzled.
You show up to your life with more presence, more ease, more calm in your system.

That’s what consistent bodywork can help create - not just less tension, but a softer, steadier way of being in your everyday life.

It’s not about chasing perfection or being “pain-free.”
It’s about feeling more like yourself again.

If your body has been asking for a little support lately, consider this your gentle reminder to listen. 💚

Every last client this fall/winter. Every. Last. One. 🤣
I get it!

You know the moment… the blanket is warm, your body is relaxed, and your brain whispers:
“Let’s just live here now.”

If this is your vibe, this is your sign to book.

I’m a massage therapist…
but I’m also a human who loves cozy mornings, good coffee, and getting outside for a breath of fresh air.

I spend my days helping bodies relax, unwind, and breathe a little easier -
but just like you, I have my own little rituals that keep me grounded, too.

Things like:
• a quiet moment before the day starts
• a warm cup in my hands
• a walk, a stretch, a pause
• music that slows my mind down
• taking care of my own body so I can take care of yours

Behind every session is a person who values calm, comfort, and feeling at home in their body - just like the people who walk through my door.

A therapist… and also a human who appreciates the small things that make life feel softer. 💚

Double tap if you love slow mornings too.
