Thank you all so much! We really appreciate you all so so much!

Hope you’re having a great week! Just wanted to give anyone a heads up if you have appointments this Saturday the street just past us is closed for the Inaugural Pride 🌈 Parade. Lots of vendors will be in the old Princess craft space. We will have our private lot blocked off with cones. Please park there as we don’t know what the side parking situation will look like. Thank you so much! 🌈

Just a little educational post today. This is such an important topic. The reason why we work on the front of your shoulders, arms and chest.

Double Crushed Nerve Damage

The term double crush syndrome (DCS) was coined by Harvard University plastic surgeons Albert Upton and Alan McComas, who wrote, “Neural function is impaired when compressed axons at one site cause the nerve to become especially susceptible to damage at another site." Their double crush research began after observing that many carpal, cubital, and radial tunnel patients also complained of unilateral shoulder, chest, and upper back pain.1 While the DCS mechanism is not completely understood, it likely involves nerve sensitization and neuroplastic changes in the pain-modulating systems of the brain and spinal cord.

Neural compression of the brachial plexus is suitably called neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (NTOS). These clients present with a variety of symptoms, including painless atrophy of intrinsic hand muscles and nighttime paresthesia. Athletes may have difficulty grasping a racquet or ball, and some report pain. However, I’ve found that rather than being the main pain event, NTOS is more of an enhancer of symptoms at a distal site, such as the carpal tunnel. Put simply, the brain pays more attention to double crush nerve insults and is more likely to respond with pain or spasm.

Although most clinicians feel that NTOS is an underestimated cause of DCS, assessment is often difficult due to vague, fluctuating symptoms. Instead of chasing the pain, I’ve achieved superior outcomes by palpating and releasing all fibrous connective tissue sites that may be kinking, stretching, or inflaming the brachial plexus. I address carpal and radial tunnel compression sites, then palpate and release.

👀 You can now add a hot foot bath to any service!!! 15 minutes to soak in a blend of salt, essential oils and some lovely flower petals. $20 for the extra level of relaxation. 🌹💐🌷🌼

We’re closing tomorrow February 3rd due to weather.
Stay warm pfriends!

We wish we could open with the other establishments today. 😕 Hopefully we can soon. We've changed since Covid-19. No more waiting room and checking out is less in your face. 🤭 Also lots of plushy decor is out for now. Those rugs really brought our rooms together, right? So for the future of our small studio, you just have to enjoy the old architecture of this beautiful Pfluger House. 🥰

We are missing our clients so much! We're thinking about you all and hope you are safe. The next date we will be updated with information with a possible date to open to the general public is May 18th, 2020. We do have a wait list, email us at [email protected] to be added. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Just wanted to update our current status. We're looking forward to opening up on May 1st. Please continue being safe and we'll get through this together. ❤️

On March 31, Gov. Greg Abbott signed Executive Order GA-14, ordering that people and businesses should follow CDC and Presidential guidelines by practicing good hygiene, environmental cleanliness, and sanitation, implementing social distancing, and working from home if possible.

Effective April 2, 2020, only essential services are allowed. Only people providing essential services are permitted to be out in public providing services. This new order prohibits services from being provided by persons licensed under Chapter 401, Sections 501-522, Health and Safety Code (Laser Hair Removal) and Chapters 455 (Massage Therapists), 1601 (Barbers), 1602 (Cosmetologists), and 1603 (Barbering and Cosmetology), Occupations Code.

Additional facilities are closed. Governor Abbott had previously closed massage establishments on March 20. Under the new order, barber and cosmetology shops regulated under Chs. 1601, 1602, and 1603, Occupations Code, and laser hair removal facilities regulated under Chapter 401, Sections 501-522, Health and Safety Code must close by 12:01 a.m. April 2, 2020. The order is in effect until April 30, 2020 and supersedes any city or county orders.
