Katie Fortman, LMT

One year ago, I made one of the scariest and best decisions of my life... I left my job and chose to work for myself 🤍

I didn't fully know what to expect, but this past year has taught me so much.
How to trust myself, how to stay consistent even when things feel uncertain, and how important it is to truly love what you do.

Being your own boss isn't always easy, but it's so rewarding. It pushes you, forces you to grow, and shows you what you're really capable of.

I'm so incredibly grateful to Ashley for creating such an amazing space and for being such a huge support through all of this. I truly couldn't ask for a better place to grow my business. Ashley Hamilton Braun Rose & Clover Salon / Spa

And to all of my clients... thank you. Your support means everything to me and is the reason I get to do what I love every day

Here's to one year of Charmed Touch Massage Therapy... and many more to come ✨

🧠💆‍♀️ Why regular massage matters — especially in January

Massage therapy does more than relax muscles. When received consistently, it supports the body’s natural healing processes and overall well-being. Regular massage can:

• Decrease cortisol (stress hormone) levels
• Improve circulation and lymphatic flow
• Reduce muscle tension, stiffness, and inflammation
• Support joint mobility and posture
• Activate the parasympathetic nervous system, helping the body shift into “rest and repair” mode
• Improve sleep quality and mental clarity

January is an ideal time to re-establish healthy routines and support your body after months of stress, cold weather, and tension buildup. Making massage a consistent part of your wellness routine helps maintain balance — physically and mentally — not just when pain shows up, but before it does.

✨ Book your massage and invest in long-term wellness this January.

Cozy season has arrived at 🌹 & 🍀

🧠 The Science of CBD for Muscle Relief + Recovery 🌿

When applied topically, CBD (cannabidiol) interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS) — a network of receptors that help regulate pain, inflammation, and muscle tension. Unlike ingestible CBD, topicals work locally, targeting specific areas of soreness or stiffness without entering the bloodstream.

🔬 Why add CBD to your massage?
• Helps reduce inflammation in overworked muscles and joints
• Encourages faster recovery after physical activity
• Promotes deep relaxation by calming localized tension
• Supports overall balance and comfort in the body

💪 The Lazarus Naturals Relief + Recovery Gel combines 2,000mg of Full Spectrum CBD with menthol and capsaicin — ingredients known to stimulate circulation and provide cooling–warming relief.

🪷 Pair it with the Body + Massage Oil (4,000mg CBD) for a complete restorative experience that nourishes the skin while easing the body and mind.

💀 “Is anyone dying for a massage?” 👻 Even these stiffest clients can’t rest in peace without a little muscle relief! As the weather gets colder, our muscles tend to tighten up and blood circulation slows — making us feel stiff and sore. 🥶. A good massage can help loosen tension, improve circulation, and keep your body feeling alive this spooky season. Book your appointment now before your muscles turn to stone! 🕯️💆🏻‍♀️
