Hip hurting on the outside of your hip? Often it’s not “just the hip”, it’s the position your legs keep taking while you sit, rest, or sleep. If your knees and ankles stay together or you cross your legs the same way all day, it can pull tissues out of balance and feed that outside hip ache. Try a simple reset: sit with knees and feet about hip width apart. Read the full post for the why + what to change.

Jaw feeling tight or sore? Try this calming, hands-only TMJ massage you can do at home. Work the masseter and temporalis muscles with the heel of your hand and fingertips, combine gentle pressure with slow open/close motion, and focus on breathing. Start 2–5 minutes per side (or short 60–90s repeats). Never push into sharp pain, stop and reassess. Read the full step-by-step routine and safety tips in our latest post.

I am feeling significantly better having moved my massage office out of the musty building on State Street. Less than a month after moving, my husband helped me with the finishing touches to my new office. I love how close to the freeway my new office is too! I have a little waiting area just outside my office.
