    Why Sticking with One Massage Therapist Will Get You Better Results

    We’ve all seen the offers on Groupon and the other discount beauty and wellness apps for cut price massage, but if you’re happy with your massage therapist or body worker, there are probably more reasons for you to stick with them than there are to jump around and follow the bargains.

    The Importance of Skin-To-Skin Contact

    Humans love to be touched. It’s an undeniable fact, and it doesn’t matter if it’s a full on squishy bear hug or a massage, touch is one of the most important things you can give to your body.

Americans spend at least $50 billion each year on back pain and if you’re one of the 31 million American

    What I learned, Marijuana vs Hemp

    As a Massage Therapist, I have had several clients ask me if I ever thought about using CBD oil for their massage session. My first reaction was, "No way am I using pot oil!".
