Healing Happens Under the Radar - Stretch of the Week

Healing happens under the radar.

Healing Happens Under the Radar - Stretch of the Week Trauma is often a "big event" while healing happens under the radar and then shows up in those little, tiny moments that stop time and you are reminded of your beauty, your light, and your joy.

Ready for this? Now offering “Lymph Detox and Body Contouring” sessions. These pics are before and after a ONE HOUR session.

A client sometimes brings her dog to her massages and I’m pretty sure my work isn’t quite as good because I can’t stop making cutesy faces and taking pictures.

The Governor of Texas has lifted restrictions allowing massage establishments to reopen. HOWEVER, the city of Austin still has Stay-At-Home guidance in place until the end of May and Travis County until June 15.

And more importantly, the current Travis County rates of Covid-19 new infection haven't had a consistant downward trajectory for even a few days per the Austin Public Health Covid-19 tracking digital dashboard.

With so many businesses opening this week, I'd like to wait at least until the beginning of June to watch the statistics before inviting clients back onto the massage table for everyone's safety.

Believe me, I want to get back to work and back to helping everyone as soon as is safely possible. I will update you all at the beginning of June and start getting everyone scheduled! Thank you all for your support and understanding.

Office Closure
On March 19th, Governor Abbot ordered the closure of all massage establishments until at least April 3, 2020. So there's that.

Dear clients, while it's not nearly as good as an in-person visit, PLEASE don't hesitate to call/text/email me (512-332-4007, [email protected]) if you have a tweaked back, pain in the hip, stiff neck, numb hand, migraine, etc., and I will happily guide you through some stretches, exercises and/or self-massage techniques. Use my knowledge! Seriously. I'm bored.

If you are scheduled in the next two weeks, your appointment will be canceled. Please feel free to reschedule for a later date by visiting my website at www.ErinSaysRelax.com or calling/texting.

Thank you to those of you who have reached out offering your caring support and concern. If you'd like to help out in this time of my temporary unemployment, (I keep wanting to insert a laughing emoticon, but this s**t is real!) you may do so by purchasing a gift certificate for yourself or someone else or pre-paying for a series at www.ErinSaysRelax.com.

Be sure to like and follow my Facebook business page at https://www.facebook.com/erinsaysrelax/ for ongoing updates, cool articles, free self-care videos when I get around to making them, and the occasional dog photo.

Stay safe and wash your damn hands!

Love all y'all!
