🌿 Trauma-Informed Care at Miyowasin Massage & Wellness 🌿
At Miyowasin Massage & Wellness, I believe that receiving massage should feel like a safe experience — not just for your body, but for your nervous system, too. 🤍
That’s why I practice trauma-informed care.
But what does that actually mean?
Trauma-informed care means understanding that every person has their own experiences, history, boundaries, and comfort levels — and that those things can influence how we feel in our bodies and how we experience touch.
It means I will never assume that something is “just a massage.”
✨ Your consent matters.
You are always in control of what areas we work on and what you are comfortable with.
✨ Your boundaries are respected.
You can say no, ask to stop, change your position, adjust the pressure, or take a break at any time — no explanation necessary.
✨ Communication is encouraged.
I want you to feel comfortable telling me if something doesn’t feel right, whether it’s the pressure, positioning, temperature, conversation, or anything else.
✨ You have choices.
I’ll explain what I’m doing and why, and whenever possible, give you options so you can make informed decisions about your treatment.
✨ There is no judgment.
Your body is not something to be embarrassed about, and you never need to apologize for how you look, feel, move, or respond during your treatment.
✨ Your nervous system deserves care, too.
Sometimes simply being able to relax, feel heard, and know that your boundaries will be respected can make a meaningful difference in how we experience therapeutic touch.
Most importantly, you are not required to share your trauma or personal history with me. Trauma-informed care isn’t about knowing someone’s story — it’s about creating an environment where they don’t have to disclose it in order to be treated with compassion, dignity, and respect.
My goal is for every client who walks through my door to feel safe, respected, heard, and empowered. 🌿
Your body. Your boundaries. Your treatment.
Healing should never require you to surrender your sense of safety. 🤍
