Marcella's Massage Therapy

over 270,000 of you watched that video. and the comments? yeah we need to talk. 😅

First thank you🫶🏻, genuinely. the fact that something I posted reached that many people and is helping people understand their own bodies means everything to me. 🤍

Now to my fellow massage therapists in the comments, I hear you. and you're not wrong. I didn't cover everything.

But here's the thing, I have 3 seconds to catch your attention and maybe 3 minutes to get my point across. there is no way to cover every muscle, every attachment point, and every nuance of the muscular system in a short reel. it's just not possible.

what I post is a starting point. a conversation opener. not a textbook.and if you want longer more detailed content — comment YouTube below and I'll start posting there. 👇

also, and I say this with love. I am a licensed massage therapist with 15 years of experience. I am NOT a doctor. I cannot diagnose you. I cannot prescribe anything. if something feels serious please go see a physician. what I can do is help support your muscular system and your overall wellness. that's my lane and I stay in it. 🤍

thank you for watching. thank you for engaging. and thank you for trusting me with your health questions. I don't take that lightly.

unpopular opinion: tight muscles don't actually hurt. 👀

I know. hear me out.
it's actually the WEAK muscles — the ones in opposition to the tight ones that are causing your pain. Think about it.

If one muscle is constantly flexing and holding tension, the muscle on the opposite side is always being stretched. and that stretched, weakened muscle? That's where the pain is coming from.

balance is everything. 🤍

save this because your body will thank you later. and if you're ready to actually address it, link in bio to book.

May was my favorite massage therapist I ever had the privilege of knowing. I asked her as many questions as I could every chance I got because nobody knew this craft like she did.

She has since passed and I miss her more than I can say. but the laughs, the lessons, and that advice I will never forget.

Thank you May for everything you poured into this craft and into me. 🤍

If your fingers go numb randomly, this one's for you.

Massage therapists deal with a lot. And I mean a LOT‼️

But nothing prepares you for the moment you realize whats happening under the sheets🙃

If you know a massage therapist send this to them immediately because they will feel every single second of this story in their soul.

Alot of people have feet problems but there are ways to help them at home! Save and share this to someone who needs it.

If you want feedback, notes, or tips for your problem areas, tell your therapist upfront.

That way I can make a mental note to talk you through what we're feeling as we go or give you a full rundown after.

A simple "hey, I've been having tension here and it's causing headaches" changes everything. 💆🏽‍♀️
