Want to get an Alaska Massage and Motion gift card AND support a good cause? There will be a gift card at the Fairbanks Youth Advocates (FYA) Carhartt and Pearls silent auction.

Haven’t heard of FYA? They are the heroes who assist houseless youth ages 6 to 24 via programs such as The Door (6 to 18yo) and Evolve (18-24yo).

Hey folks!

Effective July 1st, 2026 there will be a price increase.

The new service rates will be:

30 minutes — $80
60 minutes — $125
90 minutes — $175

This adjustment allows me to continue providing high-quality, personalized care while also investing in advanced training and innovative therapies to better support your health and recovery.

I want to sincerely thank you for your continued trust and support—it is truly appreciated, and I am grateful to be part of your wellness journey.

Looking ahead, I am excited to introduce new techniques and technology to further enhance your sessions:

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
MLD is a light, rhythmic technique designed to support the lymphatic system by encouraging the movement of fluid and waste through the body. This can help reduce swelling, support immune function, and promote overall recovery be it post-injury or post-surgery.

Spontaneous Muscle Release Technique (SMRT)
SMRT is a gentle, positional therapy that works with the nervous system to reduce muscle tension and restore balance. Clients often experience decreased pain, reduced inflammation, improved mobility, and longer-lasting results, all with little to no discomfort during treatment.

Dolphin Microcurrent Point Stimulation (MPS) Therapy
Dolphin MPS uses targeted direct microcurrent stimulation to relax muscles, calm the nervous system, and stimulate the body’s natural pain-relieving endorphins. It can also help release scar tissue, improve circulation, and address chronic pain by assisting in regulating the autonomic nervous system.

These additions reflect my commitment to offering effective, evidence-informed techniques to support your long-term health and well-being.

If you have any questions about the upcoming changes or new services, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to continuing to support you in achieving your wellness goals.

As always, keep movin' & groovin',

After some sun (and rain) in the NZ mountains and muck, I’m back and will be open this week!

Excited to see new and familiar faces!

Hey folks! 

Friendly reminder that I’ll be out of office until March 18th to rest and recharge.

I can receive emails ([email protected]) but not texts or calls.

I hope the new year is treating you well and that you’re staying warm!

A client yesterday commented that I have more business cards for massage therapists than any other business. It’s true! That’s because I want you to seek out other people while I’m away Dec 24th-March 17th; bodywork is important, just like you!

Here’s a pic of some recommendations.

Hey Everyone!

Change is afoot. Leaves are turning while temperatures are lowering, and our sun is no longer as vibrant. Thus our schedule will be expanding hours! Below are some scheduling and office hour updates.

- Scheduling online has been extended to 60 days in advance.

- Starting October, office hours will be as follows:

Wednesday-Friday: 9am-6pm
Saturday: 9am-5pm

-I will be hunting and out of office Sept. 14th-29th with no text service available. Please email at [email protected] for any inquiries.

Finally, in an effort to pursue a longstanding dream, starting December 24th, 2025 I’ll be on extended leave and will return mid-March 2025. During this time I’ll be recharging and thru-hiking the South Island of New Zealand’s Te Araroa Trail. I’m beyond stoked to have this wonderful opportunity, although I will miss you all and hope you receive awesome bodywork while I am away.

In the next few months, I’ll be chatting with other LMT’s to get a list of recommendations on who you should see while I am away. The next email in the next month or so I give you all will include the exact date in March when I will return along with that list of recommendations.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thanks and I hope you all are able to soak in quick glimpses of sun during this rainy stint!

As always, keep movin’ & groovin’,

Staying nice and cool in this summer heat and smoke with our luxurious, too-big-for-this-room, a/c unit. Yay!
