Brittany Culp LMT

✨Announcement✨

I would first like to say I am so grateful for all of my clients. Most of them have become regulars, booking every other week or at least once a month, which I truly appreciate. I have had the opportunity to work on athletes, people recovering from surgeries, people who are trying to prioritize their stress management and self-care, and I have also had the pleasure of working on other fellow massage therapists who trust me with their bodywork needs. I have been able to teach my clients more about their anatomy, alleviate aches and pains, improve physical performance, and just make them feel really damn good if I’m being honest. With all that being said, starting June 1, my prices will increase. At that point I will have been licensed a full year and currently have several continuing education credentials under my belt, including cupping and muscle scraping. Within the next couple of months, I will have several more certifications to add to my repertoire. If you have been considering booking a massage with me, I highly recommend booking throughout the month of May before my prices increase so you can see what all the hype is about. I look forward to continuing to serve Corpus Christi and the surrounding areas, while helping to improve mental and physical health. My massage menu is available to view in the pinned post at the top of my page. You deserve the royal treatment. 👑

Good afternoon, Facebook friends and family! 💚

As you may or may not know, I broke my pinky 2 weeks ago, which has put my massage availability on hold until it heals. I will begin taking on massage clientele again at the beginning of March. With that being said, in honor of Saint Patrick’s Day, I am going to share a little bit of luck with all of you. ✨ If you book a massage with me for the month of March, you will be entered into a drawing to win a free one hour massage. My husband Michael and I have been booked to do chair massage at the Saint Patrick’s Day festival downtown on March 16, and that is when I will do the drawing on Facebook live. So in order to be eligible for the drawing, you must schedule your massage and pay your deposit before then. If you are the lucky winner, I will refund your deposit or you can put it towards your session in the event that you would like to schedule a 90 minute or 2 hour massage. If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me a message. 🍀🌈☘️

Did you know that massage therapy can help alleviate depression, anxiety, and stress? Even situations perceived as good, such as becoming a new parent, getting married, or starting a new job can produce significant stress. Massage is more than just about pampering yourself; it’s about your overall well-being. For some people, massage therapy can even help reduce instances of insomnia. You might be asking… How is this possible?

✨Massage reduces the amount of cortisol in your body (also known as the stress hormone), which helps take your body and mind out of fight or flight mode.
✨Massage helps release more serotonin into your body (also known as the happy neurotransmitter chemical), reducing feelings of stress, anxiety, depression, and even enhances your ability to fight off sickness and pain.
✨Massage therapy also provides a relaxing therapeutic environment and a nurturing safe place for you to rest.

I’m not just a licensed massage therapist… I also have a masters degree in counseling psychology and work as a part-time licensed professional counselor associate. If you have any questions about how massage therapy can help you physically, spiritually, and mentally, feel free to send me a message. I have Client availability for massage therapy. You can view my massage menu and pricing in the pinned post at the top of my page. Message me to schedule your free phone consultation and schedule your appointment. You deserve the royal treatment. 👑

🎄🎁Give the gift of healing this holiday season.🎁🎄

Whether it’s for a coworker, friend, family member, significant other, or to treat yourself, you can purchase a gift card to use towards massage therapy sessions. Gift cards make the perfect secret Santa gift, white elephant gift, stocking stuffer, etc. ❄️ Just let me know the amount you would like put on the card, and you can schedule a day and time to come pick up your card.

I have Client availability the last week of December and the first week of January on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. Message me for available appointment times. If you have any questions, feel free to schedule a free phone consultation. Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, cupping therapy, muscle scraping, hot stones, and foot scrubs; you are in capable hands with me. 🙏 You can view my massage menu and pricing in the pinned post at the top of my page.

👑Allow me to introduce myself.👑

I have some new followers, so I thought I would make a post sharing a bit about who I am, the different services I offer, and what makes me somewhat unique in my field. Although I just started working as a licensed massage therapist in the summer of 2023, I have been helping people on their healing journeys for several years now in various capacities. I graduated with a masters degree in Counseling psychology in 2018, and I currently work as a licensed professional counselor associate. I counsel clients ages 13 years old and up, helping them with a variety of concerns, but not limited to depression, anxiety, PTSD, Self-esteem, stress management, communication, grief, LGBTQ issues, and more. I also have work history as a personal trainer/fitness and life coach. I still do some personal training and fitness coaching, but I have very limited availability. A majority of my fitness clientele consists of women, but I have worked with men and adolescence before too. I am very familiar with body mechanics and ways to help people ensure that their physiques are performing at their best. My experience as an athlete has also helped in this regard. To this day, I still compete in bodybuilding, and participate in pole fitness and other forms of aerials and dance. I am definitely a student of life, and there are so much more things I look forward to taking continuing education on. The services I currently offer include: Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, cupping therapy, muscle scraping, contrast therapy, and foot masks/scrubs. So whether you are looking to get a massage to relax, improve your mental health, manage your sleep quality, enhance physical performance, alleviate chronic pain, or just treat yourself… You are in capable hands with me. There is a reason my business motto is “-You deserve the royal treatment.” While you are on my table, I want you to feel like royalty, and whenever you leave, I want you to feel like you are ready to conquer. If you are interested in booking a massage with me, send me a message. I massage pretty much any day of the week except Tuesdays and Thursdays, as those are my Counseling days. I don’t book more than three massages in a day, so appointments are on a first come first serve basis. I offer free phone consultations if you have any questions.

I have limited availability for October, as it’s my wedding month. 👰‍♀️🤵‍♂️ Below is what I currently have open for bookings:
✨10/11 1 PM, and 3 PM
✨10/13 2 PM and 4 PM
✨10/23 10 AM, 12 PM and 2 PM
✨10/25 1 PM 3 Pm and 5 PM

You can view my massage menu in the pinned post at the top of my page. Times might be flexible, depending on if you are booking 60mins or 90mins. Message me to schedule your appointment. You deserve the royal treatment. 👑

Just some friendly reminders for anybody interested in booking a massage with me. I thoroughly enjoy what I do, and I try to get people in for appointments as soon as possible. With that being said, in addition to massage therapy, I work two other jobs; I have my personal training clients, and I also work as a licensed professional counselor associate seeing clients for psychotherapy. As a result, I take my schedule very seriously and that is why I have the policies in place that I have.

✨Cancelations- I am very upfront about my cancellation policy. It is in a pinned post at the top of my business page, and I always encourage each client to read through thoroughly before booking. I understand that things come up that are out of our control. Nevertheless, I still require at least 24 hours notice if you plan on canceling in order to get your deposit back or have it carried over. If you do not cancel before that 24 hour window, I’m sorry, but I will not lose out on money; whenever I don’t work, I do not get paid. please give me the professional courtesy of canceling on me with enough notice so that I can fill your spot.
✨Pay your deposit - your 50% deposit is to secure your appointment. It goes towards your session. If you do not pay it immediately upon booking, I give you. 1-2 days (depending on how far in advance you are booking) to send over your deposit. I will also send you reminders as I know sometimes life gets crazy and we forget. If you do not put down your deposit, I will give your appointment away to the next available person who submits their deposit. It’s nothing personal… Again, I do not get paid, unless I work, and I have bills to pay too. so far, I have not had a client who has an issue with this, other than one… Ironically, they were a business owner themselves, and I thought they would understand, but to each their own.
✨I do not book same day appointments- As I said before, I work other jobs, and my schedule is the way it is for a reason. Also, if you are a new client, you will need time to send over your deposit as well as fill out your intake form and sign your consent form. So, if you are wanting to book with me, I encourage you to reach out no later than the day before at the least.

I appreciate your time and consideration. Thank you to all my clients who respect and follow my procedures. I always aim to provide you all with the best service possible, so help me help you.  I have availability this weekend and next week to see massage clients, so if you are interested in booking, please send me a message. You deserve the royal treatment. 👑

Whether it is your first time getting a massage, or if you have been receiving bodywork for years, there are a few things I feel like our worth sharing. We all know that a good massage can soothe our minds and bodies, as well as provide numerous health benefits, including but not limited to improved circulation, anxiety relief, better sleep quality, and reduced aches and pains. Few therapies are this up close and personal, which can be intimidating for a lot of people. Below are some tips to help you get the most out of your massage therapy experience. 💆

💎It’s okay to get naked.- I always tell my clients to get undressed to their comfort level, but keep in mind that undergarments can sometimes get in the way of long fluid strokes and pressure points; thus at times can inhibit you from receiving the best massage possible. Licensed massage therapists are trained professionals, and will keep you covered with proper draping to preserve your modesty.
💎Remember to breathe.- it can be tempting to tense up or hold your breath, especially whenever your massage therapist is working on a knot. It’s important to continue taking full and deep breaths, so that you can oxygenate your blood supply and aid those tense muscles. Whenever you don’t breathe, your muscles become more tense.
💎Drink lots of water after your appointment.- Similar to working out, your muscles can become dehydrated during a massage, especially with deep tissue. This is why it is so important to hydrate after your appointment. The extra water will also help flush out metabolic waste accumulated as a result of the muscles being worked out.
💎Showering before is a great idea.- This is especially true if you just finished working out or have been sweating all day. Your cleanliness is a must and is very much appreciated by your massage therapist. Additionally, the warming and soothing effect of a hot shower can help you be less tense during your session.
💎Speak up.- During your massage don’t be afraid to tell your therapist if you want more or less pressure, or if something is painful. Do not wait until the end of the session because then it is too late. Furthermore, if you want more time spent on a particular part of the body, please tell your therapist that information at the beginning.

I have Client availability for Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, cupping, muscle scraping, as well as foot masks and scrubs. I see clients on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays as well as weekends. You may view my massage menu and cancellation policy in the pinned post at the top of my business page. Book with me, and receive the royal treatment. 👑

Excited to announce that I am officially certified in muscle scraping, also referred to as gua sha. Scraping is a therapeutic technique that uses stainless steel instruments to help treat muscle and connective tissue injuries, loosen overly tight muscles and scar tissue, and promote healing. Muscle scraping therapy has become popular in sports rehab and among athletes, but it’s highly effective for anyone looking to treat limited or painful motion, decreased muscle recruitment, or suffering from excessive scar tissue.

Common benefits of muscle scraping include:
✨Faster recovery
✨Improved range of motion
✨Decreased pain
✨decreased scar tissue formation
✨Improved athletic performance
🌟Bonus for my bodybuilder and fitness model friends: if you are lean enough, it can enhance muscle definition.

Although most people book a massage to alleviate stress, pamper themselves, or improve physical performance, it has other benefits. Massage therapy is one of many ways to cope with anxiety and depression. Whenever we struggle to cope with stress, it can enhance symptoms of anxiety and depression. Getting a massage can even help with insomnia. Studies have shown that a one hour massage reduces cortisol (stress hormone) levels in your body, while simultaneously releasing serotonin (feel good chemical). As a result, the body’s ability to fight off pain, anxiety, and sadness is increased. You can learn more by visiting the link below:

💆 Enhanced comfort and relaxation from the warmth of the stones.
💆 The heat aids in depth, enabling tense muscles to relax more, which in turn allows the massage therapist to get deeper into the tissue with less pressure.
💆 Relief from stress and anxiety.
💆 Can help ease you into deeper and more restorative sleep.

🗣️FAQ

Below are some frequently asked questions I get about massage therapy, especially from people who have never had a massage before.
🟣Do I have to get naked?
I tell my clients to get undressed to their comfort level.
Most clients will remove all clothing except for the underwear. However, it mostly depends on what you are trying to gain out of your massage therapy session. For example: if you are having pain in your back and lots of tension, it is advisable for you to remove your shirt (and bra), so that your therapist can effectively glide and work on your back without any interference. If you want your therapist to work on your legs, we can’t do that through pants. Some people may choose to remove their underwear, usually whenever they want their glutes worked on. Every client is different and will have their own individual needs and level of comfort.
🟣Will I be covered up?
Rest assured, you will be covered with proper draping to preserve your modesty and comfortability. Your massage therapist should only undraped the body part that they are working on at that moment. Private areas and gluteal cleavage must be covered at all times, as well as breasts of female clients.
🟣Will it hurt?
Swedish massage is the lightest type of massage and is perfect for relaxation or first-timers. Other types of massage such as deep tissue, cupping and scraping may provide some discomfort as these are working deeper layers of muscle tissue. With that being said, you should never be in intense pain during a massage therapy session. Always communicate with your therapist when necessary about providing more or less pressure.
🟣What if I have allergies to certain types of oils and lotions?
If you have allergies, please indicate that on your intake form. I have several different types of oils, including a hypoallergenic formula that is ideal for clients with allergies or sensitive skin. Clients may also bring in an oil or lotion of their preference.
🟣What if I’m ticklish or don’t want certain parts of my body massaged?
If you have areas of the body you would like your therapist to be careful around or avoid completely, just indicate that on your intake form.
🟣Do you offer “happy endings”?
Absolutely not. Not only is that unethical and gross, it’s illegal. I do a mandatory phone consultation with all new clients before booking. This is not only so I can give the client the opportunity to ask any questions they might have and learn more about their areas of concern, but also to make sure their intentions for seeking my services are professional. If during a session a client makes any inappropriate remarks or sexual gestures towards me, I will end the session immediately, and you will not be allowed back. Not to mention, the massage therapist community is very close knit, and your name might be put on a blacklist to protect other therapists from also being sexually harassed.
