(oh, like you don’t have any issues)

Hello my lovely audience, whomever you may be.
I have reached a point in my career; my lifespan; my path on this earth¦
Where I have noticed too many restrictions on my choosing of who I am and expressing who I am.
I think it’s partly due to the idea that most massage therapists seem to need to have is one of CONSTANT tranquility. I am not saying that everyone thinks this way but I guess I am saying I understand why, in the world of business, I ’should” keep some parts of me “in check” so that I don’t “look bad” in front of my clients or perspective clients.
I know that posting this will turn some people way off and they will not want my service.
At this point, that’s ok with me! Lol
Cuz I’m not getting any new clients from the open web or the quality of my online presence at this point so far as I can tell.
The only reason I’m findable at all is because of local connections I’ve made in person - it’s my strong suit.

So here it is.
I have not often come to my blog here on massage freek because it intimidates me that so many people could read it. And the thing that makes it dually difficult is that when I type.. it’s like the bitch comes out.
I don’t wanna hold back and sometimes I do. I can think of some subjects that seem pc enough to me to write about but I think I don’t do this because I just can’t stop from wanting to express myself at the same time as I give information.
And I’m talking about being centered on myself
Guess that’s what I’m worried about. Worried that I’ll sound self centered because I want to talk about myself and processes I go thru mentally, physically and emotionally instead of maybe, how you can take of yourself better after a massage.
I mean
The most contact I have with the Internet is my live journal. But I have been wanting to change that truth for some time now. I can’t get enough of just being honest, charismatic and pretty personal.

So with that. We should talk about the spine.
Good friend of mine, Robert Allen asked me “Tell me about the spine.”
I sorta looked at him blankly and then said
“The coolest thing about the spine is how many layers - thick layers of dense strong muscles and fascia just coat the structure” He then told me I needed to blog about that sort of thing; the stuff I can rattle on and on about for hours with passion!

So there you go.
Once I post this… I will be posting about the spine.
And then perhaps I could post about good self care for post massage blues.

And then maybe I’ll talk about water and ice.
Did you know that water responds to moods and words and music?

It’s true!

Testimonials

From Eric Koszyk. Wow! What can I say? Sierra is a truly gifted person and therapist. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about massage. It helps that she is extremely intuitive and a very caring human being. Her space on Broadway is very warm, comforting and inviting.

As a fellow massage therapist, I highly recommend her, especially if you are looking for extensive deep tissue work which she is amazing at. You will leave her place wiser; her treatments will change your life.

From Joe Shirley I still remember the first massage I got from Sierra over six months ago. My neck was chronically bugging me, and my carpal tunnel thing was acting up. She asked my permission to go for it. I said yes. It hurt. She told me to trust her, and I did. And both my neck and wrist felt great afterwards. She went right through that crap and out the other side. Amazing.

From Matt Hanson Sierra is fantastic! I felt she was really attentive to the needs I expressed about my upper-back and shoulders. I was really impressed that she could identify other problems spots quickly and how they positively affected those areas that were bothering me most. I have had several massages and she has the strength and understanding to do a incredible job.

From Dennis Dilday I’ve had close to a hundred massages from more than a dozen different therapists and I can say Sierra’s are unique and wonderful. She relates and interacts with the layers of facia in a way others can’t. While determined to get a response from the tissues, Sierra is also tuned into her patient and keeps the experience pleasant and interesting. Clinically, she’s both confident and competent.
