Off the Bench Massage Therapy

A big thank you to my clients. This past year was a delightful and busy year. My favorite was meeting many new people who have become dear clients. Thank you for your referrals. It’s a privilege and honor to work entirely on referrals.

Please remember that texting is best for booking appointments. I have four little kids at home and strive to stay present with them. Texting is best but I’m not the best at texting. I’m striving to be better at attending to business at the end of the day but I also have many different time consuming projects on hand. If you don’t hear back from me please text me a reminder and don’t take it personal, I’m functioning on mom brain 🤪.

Thank you for your business, it really is a marvelous blessing to help out such beautiful souls.

I’m so excited to be able to offer this additional therapy in appointments! Red and infrared light is extremely beneficial. My light is a true laser which means you get more focused and powerful results in less time. This therapy is normally an additional charge offered by mostly chiropractors or other professionals but I believe in this therapy so much I’m offering it at no additional charge to my clients for the time being.

I’m not currently offering the brain balancing shown in the pictures. That will be in the future. For my clients we target your areas of complaint.

Also please do yourself a favor and get a membership to Rejuvenate Red Light therapy in Roosevelt and bask your whole body in this light daily. You won’t regret it.
