You came in because your BACK hurts… so why am I working on your CHEST?

Welcome to Day 3 of Why Are You Working THERE?

Pectoralis major and pectoralis minor are strong muscles at the front of the body, and with how much time we spend reaching forward — driving, typing, cooking, cleaning, working, scrolling — they can become part of the tension pattern through the shoulders and upper back.

That doesn’t mean we ignore the area that hurts.

It means we look at the bigger picture.

And because the chest is considered a sensitive area in massage therapy, your consent matters. You always have a say in what is treated and how.

Try this today: gently open your chest using a doorway or wall stretch and notice what changes through your shoulders and back.

Sometimes the body part asking for attention isn’t the only body part involved.

You don’t have to wait until your body is screaming to start caring for it.

WAIT… there aren’t muscles all over the top of your head?! 🤓

Welcome to Day 2 of Why Are You Working THERE? — the parts of your body you may never think about… until they start hurting.

Across much of the top of the scalp is a broad sheet of connective tissue that connects with muscles toward the forehead and back of the head.

Want to feel the connection?

Raise your eyebrows.

You may notice movement or tension extending farther back across your scalp than you expected.

And yes, the muscles around the scalp, neck and base of the skull can be relevant when we’re looking at certain patterns of tension or head discomfort — but that conversation deserves its own day.

Today I really just wanted to share one of those:

“Wait… my body does WHAT?”

facts. 😂

After almost 19 years as an RMT, I still genuinely love teaching people about the body.

The more you understand it, the easier it becomes to notice what it might need.

And you don’t have to wait until something hurts to start paying attention to it. 🤍

WHY ARE YOU WORKING THERE?!

You come in because your back hurts… and suddenly I’m working on your chest.

You have a headache… and I’m spending time around your neck, shoulders, jaw or scalp.

Your foot hurts… and we’re talking about your calves.

There are so many parts of the body that people don’t really think about until something starts hurting.

So throughout September, I’m sharing some of the overlooked, misunderstood and surprisingly important areas of the body — and why your massage therapist might work somewhere other than the exact place you feel discomfort.

And underneath all of it is something I believe deeply:

You don’t have to wait until your body is screaming to take care of it.

Welcome to:

Why Are You Working THERE?
The parts of your body nobody thinks about — until they hurt.

We’re going head to toe… just not necessarily in that order. 😂

It’s not possible to fully capture a Reiki treatment.
To start, imagine feeling at home in your body.
Releasing what is ready to be released
Letting go of what’s no longer aligned
Into a state of allowing your natural state of health and wholeness
And re-membering your Self with everything in the Universe

Like I said, it’s not possible to capture, but you KNOW it’s there.
And this is here for you
When your ready

Most people come in skeptical. They leave wondering why they waited so long. Reiki isn’t magic — it’s your body doing what it was always designed to do, once you give it permission to slow down. Swipe to see how it works.
