Om with Em

03/11/2021

I was working with some tight muscles along the spine. As I pressed in deeper with my forearm, my client took the deepest exhale yet, and the breath literally moved my arm exactly where it needed to go. I felt the tension dissolve. The feeling never gets old ~ it’s a magical, energetic dance between two people.
•
Massage is more than manual therapy/movement. Just like in life, it is little moments like these that are actually substantial breakthroughs. We can use our awareness and breath to break down what feels thick and dense. Breathe... and embody the present moment for healing... allow the energy to flow.

I woke up this morning with a puffy allergy face and felt inspired to share some natural tips to manage allergies, especially in relation to the skin and face. It's been a couple hours since I recorded this and after doing these few things, I feel like a new, allergy-free gal 🤗
•
I highly recommend using the Om with Em serum for the stimulating facial massage ~ it smells ooooh sooo good and leaves the face with a dewy glow. It's available at etsy.com/shop/omwithem

Please share if you have any allergy tips!

✨Free Cupping✨ for the next 5 people that book a massage with me!! (it will add about 15 minutes to your session)
•
I am SO excited to add this to my bodywork tool kit! I have wanted to learn cupping for quite some time, and I am so grateful to have now completed education so that I can offer this to you all.
•
Cupping can give very similar results to deep tissue massage, but it is less invasive. It uses suction to draw blood to the surface of the skin. The blood is reoxygenated and then flows back into the tissue which {equals healing}. By lifting up on the superficial muscles, it also gives space to the deeper muscles to release.
•
Please leave any questions about cupping below and let me know if you'd like to try it out!

I am not ok with this!! Did you know that if you look up "self-love" in the [online] dictionary, it is defined as, "narcissism, vanity & conceit"?! This makes me so sad. We are conditioned to think we shouldn't shower ourselves with love and gratitude. No wonder we talk to ourselves way more negatively than we would ever talk to a friend. has a section to contact them about definitions, so you better believe I wrote to them about this one!
•
Well... I love myself and believe it's in a very non-narcissist way. Trust me, there are many negative thoughts running through my brain, so talking to myself kinder is something that I am actively working on. But I notice when I practice self-love, I show up much more mindful and loving for others.
•
I reached a few goals that I set for myself so I decided to celebrate ME and the love I have for myself. Of course a chocolatey treat is how I will almost always go about doing that. Swipe for the recipe of this sugar-free treat!!
•
It's not vain or conceited to declare your love for yourself! It's quite the opposite. I love myself and I love you too! Please comment below what you love most about yourself!! Let's spread the self-love!!

✨Heat Therapy for Muscle Tension✨
I love the nurturing feel of heat packs or pads on my tight, sore muscles. The heat dilates the blood vessels which increases oxygen and nutrient flow to the muscles. This helps heal damaged tissue. It also softens the muscles, creating more flexibility --> which equals pain relief.
I have been using these therapeutic heated gloves (gifted to me from 🙏🏽) all over my body. They ease tension in my hands and wrists after giving massage but my FAVORITE way to use them is setting them on my shoulders, especially while I'm at my computer. They're perfectly weighted to assist in dropping down my shoulders when I habitually scrunch them up to my ears. And they ease my tension in the most comforting way. I also lay on top of them during savasana and I feel like I'm melting into the earth.
•
I'd love to hear if you use heat therapy ~ please share your favorite ways to incorporate it into your wellness practices!
•
(In general, I recommend heat for chronic aches and pains - not acute injuries)

✨Inversion therapy for back pain✨
Getting upside down has been the biggest relief for my chronic back pain when I can't get a massage. I highly recommend trying it out! I think yoga swings are the best but if you don't have one, simply do a down dog or a forward fold.
•
In between each vertebrae is a squishy disc that absorbs shock and provides flexibility. Throughout the day, the discs lose fluid like a sponge and they lose some of their height. We actually become about 1/2 inch shorter throughout the day!! The discs reabsorb moisture as we lay down over night so we get most of that height back, but still lose about 2 inches over our lifetime.
•
By getting upside down, we create more space between the vertebrae and moisture can be reabsorbed. This is great for long term care of the discs. It will also alleviate nerve pain, relax tight muscles, and help to realign the spine. Just writing this makes me want to go get upside down. Time to get back on my swing!! 🤸🏻‍♀️
