A Study of Massage

Just a heads up 🙌🏽

Starting next month cash/venmo/zelle will be preferred payment for sessions 🙏🏽

This is to help combat the rising costs of cc fees, rent etc. Starting October any transactions processed through Square will have an added 2.9% fee for tap or 3.5% for manually entered cards. This is not more than my processing company charges myself. Thanks for your understanding!

*update* October 14th has been booked. But there is still an evening opening October 19th.

Evening session lighting 🙌🏽
Taking evening appointments October 14th and 19th. These are not available online. DM to book

Finally getting around to implementing my new branding from Marina Homenchuk • Brand Designer.
So excited with how it turned out and hoping to use it alongside new photos and videos soon !

To celebrate moving into a beautiful new space, bring awarded first place in 2024 and 2025 for Best of Clallam County AND a 2026 nomination in both Health and Fitness + People, I want to offer an opportunity for new clients who’ve been on the fence about starting massage therapy or trying someone new.

I’m out of office for a little bit taking a Fundamentals of Multi-dimension Bodywork from Tracey Windmill but when I come back I want to offer a discount for new clients.
Any new clients that book any appointments please write “new client” and I’ll take $20 off your session.

And if you’ve seen me or support what I do and offer, please vote in both categories !

I’ll try not to spam you but stoked nominated again this year under People and Health and Fitness. I know it takes a minute but if you find time wanting to cast a vote daily and here are the links for the two categories I’m nominated under !

In the year since last receiving this honor I’ve take on a bigger space. A space for gathering and supporting my fellow LMTs. A place for hosting and bringing educators to the peninsula. A place for massage therapists to gather and support each other. I hold space for students to host their practice clients and offer any kind of support and advice they want. I truly love what I do and hope to build sold community of therapists on the peninsula.

I didn’t just change careers I changed my life. And I’ve dedicated a lot of my time to further my knowledge in Massage Therapy to become better and more informed. I really put the time into being better and growing ! As I write this I’m in Utah taking a nervous system informed class and excited to bring back new techniques and more movement to my treatments.
Movement is so important.

This has meant a lot to me in my journey the last few years and really helped my business

Last few days to nominate and yes you can nominate daily !

I can be nominated as an individual under “People” as Stacy Hodgson

And business under “Health and Fitness” as A Study of Massage.

So honored to win best of the last two years and we’ll see what this year brings !

Only a few weeks away from working the Oregon Trail Gravel ! It’s a goal of mine to participate in the race before it’s retired - but it’s an event i look forward to working all year. Loading up the camper and spending a few weeks on the road is my kind of work!
Camping + getting to work with athletes is my dream job

In case you didn’t know, it’s nomination rounds for Best of Olympic Peninsula!

I was SO stoked to win Best Massage / Business my first year. And even more excited to be the next year for Best Massage Therapist AND Best Massage.

The website can be a little confusing so I left some links and I can be nominated under

People (Massage Therapist)

https://www.peninsuladailynews.com/contests/best-of-clallam-county/ #/gallery?group=549238

And Health and Fitness (Massage)

https://www.peninsuladailynews.com/contests/best-of-clallam-county/ #/gallery?group=549237

Give your fave therapist, hairstylist, police officer etc a shout out by entering their name or business names! Thanks for all your support. I wouldn’t be where I am today without my clients !

Putting in AC unit was gonna set me back $12,000 which I could not afford lol. So we opted for some window units! And as of today, every room now has AC!

I’m excited to share that I’ve completed my 45 hour Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) certification!

With lymphatic drainage trending all over social media, there’s a lot of misinformation out there. I’d like to clarify what is MLD

What Manual Lymphatic Drainage IS:
• Light pressure
• Slow, paced techniques
• Designed to support the lymphatic system
• Performed without oils
• Therapeutic treatment performed by a certified licensed massage therapist

What Manual Lymphatic Drainage is NOT:
• Deep pressure massage
• A weight-loss treatment
• Body contouring
• A “full-body detox” (that’s what your kidneys and liver do!)

MLD may help support:
✔️ Edema
✔️ Lipedema
✔️Fibromyalgia
✔️ Headaches and migraines
✔️ Post-operative recovery
✔️ Nervous system regulation and relaxation
✔️ Venous insufficiency
✔️ Immune system function
✔️ Sinus congestion and allergy relief
✔️ Postpartum recovery and support

I’m looking forward to offering this specialized service on the peninsula for clients to experience the benefits of a healthier, supported lymphatic system.

Feel free to reach out with questions or to learn whether MLD may be a good fit
