the pups are here with a message for you:
life happens, budgets change, sometimes you need to take a break from your massages…
I get it! We’re all doing the best we can, to get by
There’s no shame in that game
but here’s something to consider: short, consistent appointments are more effective in maintaining results, comparative to one looooong appointment, infrequently
so how can I help you out?
I set my own prices & I’m able to work on sliding scale!
if we determine there is a need, we can make adjustments for the short term
I also barter, or work on exchange! (When my own budget, allows)
What would I accept in exchange of treatment you ask?
🎃 books, dogs toys, festive decor
🎃 tattoos, massage, acupuncture
🎃 yarn, craft supplies, sewing/ alterations
🎃 local, skilled (art)work (woodwork, cricut wizards, candles, festive earrings…)
This list is surprisingly difficult to come up with, because I’m always up for negotiations!
Sometimes you don’t know, what you don’t know, until it’s suddenly needed! 🤷🏻‍♀️
… like a massage
Take care of yourself. Even if that means taking a break from seeing me 👻

Sometimes people come in, & they don’t recognize me
I always thought it was odd, but things really have shifted in the past couple years!
I go between three pairs of glasses, & contacts
I rarely wear makeup, but love funky themed earrings
The tattoos multiple (most recently my bat thanks to Aaron James)
I have pictures on the website from when I grew my hair long but still had blonde at the end
on the booking site, when I cut it & went blue
on social media, grown long again, with bangs
& now I’ve chopped it shorter than I have in years, and gone PINK (Colour Specialist at Bad Girl Hair )
Hi it’s me! Your RMT
Still here with cups, Ashiatsu, bamboo & scrapers
Hope you’ve boooooo-ked 👻 your next appointment!

& just like that, we’re back to busy season!

because everybody loooooves stickers 😂
sticker bowl is refilled with my favourite holiday!

oh, and don’t forget to book a massage! 🧙‍♀️

autumns coming, have you felt it in the air yet?
during school season my schedule shifts slightly
September looks like this:
Monday/ Tuesdays: 10am - 2:30pm & 4pm - 7pm
Thursday: 9:30am - 2:30pm & 4pm - 7pm
Fridays: 9:30am - 2:30pm
Occasionally, I take time off, for medical, personal, or social reasons
For example: in order to attend a concert, I must take time off work (Zach Bryan, it’s my nieces 16th birthday present)
To offset the hours lost, I’ll extend other dates, staying later on Fridays
These dates are slightly different than my standard hours
I’m fortunate to have some wiggle room with scheduling
Check online booking, or text me directly, for exact availability
I’ll be updating the picture frame in my treatment room tomorrow to reflect planned hours
Things keep getting busier from now to December as people wish to use up their benefits before they reset in January
Online booking is available 8 weeks in advance, in the background I have my calendar planned a year at a time
Want to schedule yourself monthly massages for the year?
Send me a text and I can help you out!
Heads up: I always take the last two weeks of December off for recovery
Have you booked your massage yet?

I almost feel like I should do an eye-spy: rainbow edition 🌈
I always seem to miss taking photos of myself on the days showing the earrings (x2), bracelets, dresses, shirts (x3), & various flags 🥲
sorry, social media isn’t my strong suit 🫡
… to be continued

With dangerous heat and poor air quality affecting Windsor-Essex, it's important to protect not only yourself—but your pets and our local wildlife too.

🐶 Keep Your Pets Safe
• Keep walks short and limit outdoor time, especially during the hottest parts of the day.
• If the air looks or smells smoky, skip strenuous exercise and opt for indoor enrichment instead.
• Always provide plenty of fresh, cool water.
• Never leave pets in a parked vehicle—even for a minute.
• Watch for signs of heatstroke, including excessive panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, or collapse. This is an emergency and requires immediate veterinary care.
• Be mindful of hot pavement. If it's too hot for your hand, it's too hot for their paws.

🧍 Protect Yourself
• Limit time outdoors when possible.
• Stay hydrated and seek out air-conditioned spaces.
• Keep windows closed if smoke levels are high and use air filtration if available.
• Check in on elderly neighbours, friends, and family members who may need extra support.

🦊 Help Local Wildlife
• Place shallow dishes of fresh water in shaded areas for birds, squirrels, and other wildlife. Add a few small stones so insects can safely drink too.
• Avoid disturbing young wildlife that may be resting in cool, shaded spaces.
• Keep pets supervised outdoors to reduce stress on wildlife seeking shelter from the heat.
• If you find an animal that appears injured or in distress, contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator for advice.

A little extra care during extreme weather can make a big difference. Stay cool, stay safe, and help those who can't ask for it. 💙

swipe for some small updates 👉
As of August 1st, 2026, I will be flattening my rates across modalities
What does that mean? I’ll be charging you by time, not my treatment
So it won’t be $5 more for Ashiatsu, Cupping, Bamboo or Indie Head Massage
Yes, you still need to differentiate when you book online, so I set up appropriately and don’t cut into your treatment time
Be aware when you book: not all RMTs at Shanti Wellness Studio will be priced the same way
(Lauren) will be listed at the end of each treatment offered by me
I will no longer be offering prenatal massage with a bolster, only side lying
No more 1:1 yoga or rehabilitative movement
Gua Sha, Acupressure and Cupping facials will not be individual treatments
The good news? You can add the facials to any of your every day therapeutic massages!
IASTM & ear seeds are still available as add ons to treatments, at no extra cost
I’m really leaning into massage, & the methods I enjoy offering
My hours are all pretty & framed on the wall!
life comes at you fast, & my schedule has been adapting to the added member in my household
These hours will be updated seasonally, but since we’re already halfway through summer - I’m starting with AUGUST
some things that haven’t changed:
🌊 I only work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday
🌊 No Wednesdays, no weekends, no exceptions
🌊 during the school season (September - June), there will always be a gap from 2:30pm - 4pm
🌊 Online booking will be available 6 weeks at a time, but I have my calendar planned out a year in advance
🌊 You can book ahead, if you contact me directly
🌊 Cancellation fees have not changed: cancel for yourself online, 24 hours prior to your appointment
🌊 Within 24 hours? 50% fee, No Show, or No Contact? 100% fee equivalent to the cost of the appointment
🌊 Cancellations cannot be billed to insurance
🌊 Best way to contact me for booking, cancellations or rescheduling? TEXT my work phone directly, I typically get back to you within one business day
🌊 I always book off the last two weeks of December to recharge (winter is busy!)
I’m still taking on new patients, feel free to share the post & send someone my way that needs a massage 😉

“but why don’t you ever shut up about the q***r thing?”
because someone thinks it’s better to be dead, than transparent
because it’s unsafe to cross certain borders, or show affection in public
because I’ve seen families reject people, who are just trying to find their way
because love, community and acceptance are beautiful things
because people should be able to go to the bathroom in peace
because we are MORE than chromosomes
can’t we just belong?
because public and catholic school education is limited
because I’ve witnessed individuals tease, ignored and harassed for the clothing on their body
(its just fabric)
because hair, makeup, adornments, perfumes, and tone of voice should be allowed to be artistic expression
because genitalia is none of my business
because it’s personal
because we’re all doing the best that we can, to get by
pride matters, trans lives matter
if you disagree, you can see yourself out
