Honey Care

✨Pin & Stretch✨

Sometimes this can feel a bit intense but in the best way!

This method of stretching “pins” a muscle and shortness the muscles length, then taking the muscles through a full range of motion to loosen up those tight muscles!

Sometimes reviews can be an annoying task for a consumer, I know I don’t always think about their importance much. But they can sometimes be the thing that makes someone’s days. And sometimes they come at just the right time.

I was recently dealing with a bit of imposter syndrome and wondering if this is actually something I should keep up with or if I should get another job. Then this review popped up and it completely shifted my perspective✨ so thank you for the kind words, they mean more then you know.

Enjoy the day y’all🌞

Just doin my thing…
squishin bods, releasing knots & cleansing energy✨

Hope your having the happiest healthiest Monday🫶🏽

Honey Care officially has set hours! The past few years of doing this I’ve had my books open 6 to 7 days a week allowing people access to book anywhere from 8am to 7pm. As nice as it’s been to allow everyone such flexible availability to massage it’s officially caught up to me😮‍💨

Of course if you don’t find a time that works, always feel free to reach out and we can squeeze you in somewhere!

I will continue to try and be as accommodating as possible to you lovely clients while also learning to listen to my body🌱

Take good care🫶🏽

I read the following quote the other day and it got the feminist in me all fired up “Menstrual blood is the only blood not born of violence, yet it is the blood most scorned.” As a period having person it’s always ground my gears that I and my fellow human are discouraged to talk about our experience with our bodies during menstruation.

But instead of talking about all the ways the world could be doing better to normalize, educate, end period poverty, on and on the list goes, I’m here to talk about something positive happening at Honey Care!!!

I’ve added “Menstrual Massage” to the service list!!!! This 75minute session will be a full body gentle Swedish massage including abdominal work. It will also include warm stones, warm towels, aroma therapy & hot oil scalp massage. (It is customizable if you want to sit out of any of these options). This session will be at a discounted rate because the red devil in our bellies sucks and we deserve this! (I mean just kidding periods are power, our bodies are immaculate and full of love… but still PMS is kinda lame)

Sliding scale options are available upon request because we all deserve to feel good and have moments of relief when Aunt Flow is in town!

Click the link in my bio to plan ahead and book yourself a Menstrual Massage! Future you will be so happy you did❤️

As much as I love this picture because is so talented, every time I look at it I just stare at my hunched shoulders😮‍💨

As a body worker I’m always recommending to clients to keep daily body mechanics in mind. Roll back you shoulders, check you hips, don’t lock your knees etc. But here I am!

It’s not always easy to keep how we’re carrying ourselves in the front of our mind. So here’s a gentle reminder to you and me… Take a quick scan. Check in on where we’re holding, hunching & crunching. Lets let loose where we need to and straighten up where we can🫶🏽

You look great😉

So dang nice💛

Book a massage and allow me to hold space for you to let go of all that is not serving you. Allow me to hold space for you to simply breathe & relax✨

Just saying🤷‍♀️

Happy Valentines Day! I hope you all have the sweetest day filled with love, light, and hopefully a great massage✨

I recently realized one of the things that keeps me from posting consistently is the pressure I put on myself to make sure there’s a good witty caption. Which is so silly and I need to cut it out. So happy Friday everyone!!! Here’s a picture of a beautiful client and that’s it✨ Enjoy the weekend💛

Exciting news!!!!! I will be offering birth and postpartum doula services very soon!

Fun fact I was actually interested in becoming a doula a few years before becoming a massage therapist! A friend of mines mother is a doula and offered trainings that I was fascinated by. I made excuses many times because of insecurities surrounding being to young and still in my “party phase.” In hindsight I’m glad I waited until now. I’m happy to have gained the clarity and life experience I have. I’ve learned to put my passions first. I’ve learned true, genuine empathy and compassion for my fellow human. And I’ve put hours and hours into studying the beautiful subject that is pregnancy, birth and it’s extensions. I’ve been taking classes to become a Full Spectrum Doula via. though I still have some time left ahead of me until completely certified I wanted to let my little community here in on the secret!

And for those of you who have no need for a doula don’t panic! I will still be offering massage as a regular practice💛

Very often after a massage I find my self telling a client “your shoulders and calves were so dang tight.”

Having tight calves can disrupt so much of your daily body mechanics. It can affect your ankles range of motion, especially dorsiflexion. It can lead to you locking your knees more which can cause ankle and hip discomfort. The list goes on.

So here is a gentle reminder to stretch, foam roll those babies and of course to book a massage to avoid future discomfort✨

Hi friends! Surprise surprise it’s been awhile since I posted🥲
A little update in the last month or so, life has given me an abundance of opportunity.
I rang in the new year while moving to my new office (I know another move, it happens when rent gets raised 25%😮‍💨). I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, I’ve massaged. Life has been interesting, full and heartwarming. To celebrate the universe showing my practice and my life such grace, growth and joy I thought it’d be fun to do a cheeky little giveaway!

Adding a little extra facial massage these days to aid those lame clogged sinuses🤧

I’ve been asked a lot if this work is energetically draining. And the short answer is… yeah it can be. Some days, like every job, are harder then others. But most days giving massage is just as therapeutic for me. Human connection is what inspired me to begin this practice and the joy of providing a nourishing touch, is what makes the more energetically taxing days completely worth it✨

Nothing cozier on these chilly days then a warm stone massage❄️🤤

Getting a massage and allowing another person to hold space for you doesn’t always come natural to everyone. It can be intimidating to feel so vulnerable. Here’s some extra tips if your body is asking for a massage but it feels daunting-

•Leave your clothes on! We can work over the clothes until you feel comfortable.

•Tell me what music relaxes you! We don’t have to listen to spa music. If hair metal bands or 90’s hip hop tunes it was soothes you, that’s what we’ll listen too!

•Let’s chat! Sometimes silence can bring on feelings of panic and anxiety. If you prefer to fill that silence with conversation, great, let’s get to know each other!

•Ask as many questions as you want! If your curious as to what we’re doing I’m more then happy to explain what and why every stroke we’re doing is important for your body✨

This session is about YOU and what YOU need💛

Experience the healing power of touch✨

Officially given up on trying to paint Pinterest-y art on the walls here🥲 but I still love this space and feel so at ease every time I come here. May it be for a client, to do work or study. This office has really become a second home✨

☺️☺️☺️

Did you know all oils and crèmes used at Honey Care are blends made by yours truly? I never really intended to sell them but after a few clients asked I decided to just make a few extras at each batch. And now they’re flying out of the office! I’ll be restocking next week with a “Warm & Cozy” blend for calming moments as it starts to get colder! DM if your interested or would like a custom massage oil or crème made special for you✨

Beginning, during, after releasing stiff neck muscles!
