Some moments leave an imprint on your heart forever. 🤍
I've been pretty quiet here for the past few months, taking a much-needed break from social media. But recently, I experienced something I couldn't help but share.
In all my years as a massage therapist, I've had the privilege of being part of some incredibly meaningful moments. But this one may have been the most profound of my career.
I had the honor of caring for a mama just one month postpartum, while she held her sweet baby skin-to-skin against her chest.
And there was something so incredibly sacred about it.
A mother, whose body has spent months growing and nurturing another life, finally having a moment to be nurtured herself.
She didn't have to put her baby down. She didn't have to choose between meeting her baby's needs and having her own needs met.
She simply got to rest, receive, and be cared for while holding the little life she brought into this world.
As I worked, I found myself moved to tears.
I couldn't help but think about how much mothers pour out of themselves. How often they're the ones holding everyone else together, while their own bodies quietly carry the weight of it all.
And for that little window of time, I got to be the hands that cared for the one doing all the caring.
After all these years, I'm still reminded that massage therapy is about so much more than muscles, tension, or even relaxation.
This was one of those moments that reminded me why I fell in love with this calling in the first place.
He restores my soul. Psalm 23:3
This is why Fully Restored Wellness exists. 🤍
