Boundaries

This article is part of a broader series on spiritual practices that can be incorporated into your daily routine. These practices are designed to support energetic awareness, personal boundaries, and spiritual hygiene in a world that is increasingly interconnected and intrusive. Just as we care for our physical and emotional health, tending to our energetic well-being is an essential part of living, working, and moving through modern life with clarity and intention.

Over the years, I’ve had to carefully manage my schedule and the number of hours I work due to health reasons. I want to be transparent about this because it’s important for my clients to understand how I operate. I am always willing to help clients who need pain management, and I often make accommodations for long-term, regular clients to come in on my days off or during holidays. When I offer a special date or time, it is an act of consideration and care.

Endangerment sites are areas of the body where critical structures such as major arteries, veins, nerves, and organs lie close to the surface. These areas require extreme caution, refined skill, and a deep understanding of anatomy. One of the most sensitive and potentially dangerous endangerment sites is the neck, especially around the carotid artery. Massage in this region must always be conservative, controlled, and intentional.

I want to take a moment to be transparent and share my policy regarding massage appointments and recent vaccinations. Over the years,...

When it comes to massage therapy, whether it’s general massage, lymphatic drainage, or specialized work, it’s essential to go to someone who is licensed and insured. This isn’t just about professionalism; it’s about your health, safety, and overall well-being.

For my business to run smoothly, I need to operate on a strict schedule. Please respect my time, and I will, in turn, respect yours. When you schedule an appointment in advance, make sure it is marked on your calendar. I send reminders 24 hours before your appointment via text and email, so please plan accordingly. I do understand that life happen can arise with unexpected events, illness, or emergencies. That is why I have a policy in place that is is designed to help man

Your health and safety are always my top priority. To ease the minds of my clients, I want to clarify my policies and the precautions I take regarding colds, flu, and COVID-19.

Over the years, a massage therapist learns the importance of establishing boundaries with clients. These boundaries create a clear framework for both the therapist and the client. Respecting each other's boundaries is crucial. I want to emphasize that I have strict boundaries in place, and I rigorously enforce them, particularly regarding sexual harassment from male clients. Too many callers, almost always men, ask inappropriate questions or try to push sessions into sexua

Through my work in massage and healing, I’ve seen how important it is to talk about consent, permission, and boundaries. These themes come up often in my work. I see that many people struggle with establishing boundaries, whether it is saying no, asking for what they need, or recognizing when someone else is crossing a line. For me, this goes beyond theory; it's something I observe with people daily.

I do not accept walk-ins. Here’s why: My sessions are 90 minutes to 2 hours long. When I’m with a client I give my full attention to their care and I do not step away from a session to answer the door or phone. Accepting walk-ins would create time pressures and interruptions that reduce the quality of treatment for everyone.

Over time, afternoon traffic from the nearby local Christian Academy school has created challenges for both my clients and my business. Many clients have shared frustrations about the lack of available parking around 2:30 to 3:45 pm, as parents often use our commercial lot despite management’s requests not to. Unfortunately, since the lot is public use under Texas law, parents are legally allowed to park there. The only exceptions are if someone is parked improperly...

When it comes to your health and wellness, choosing the right massage therapy experience is just as important as choosing a qualified therapist. One question I often get is why I don’t accept insurance. While it might seem inconvenient at first, opting for self-pay actually provides significant benefits for both you and me. From personalized care to cost transparency, here’s why self-pay massage therapy in Texas is often the better choice.

If you’re part of the kink community, you know that some activities can be physically and emotionally intense. From muscle soreness after impact play to joint stiffness from extended positions, your body often needs some extra care. Massage therapy offers a safe, professional, and judgment-free space to help your body recover, release tension, and feel more balanced. This is about supporting your well-being, not sexual activity, so you can truly relax and recharge.

Consultations are an important part of ensuring you receive the best care and guidance for massage therapy, energy work, post-operative care, or any other service I offer. These conversations allow us to discuss your specific needs, health history, expectations, and any questions you may have in a focused and intentional way.

My massage therapy office is a safe haven. I understand that people sometimes come into the therapy room carrying heavy burdens. Venting is natural and allowed. I also respect healthy debate, but there is absolutely no room here for hate, whether directed at the LGBTQ+ community, any race, religion, culture, or demographic.

To ensure a smooth and professional experience for all clients, I want to clearly outline my policies regarding appointments, cancellations, and late arrivals. Your time is valuable, and so is mine. Please read carefully.

In an ideal world, I would never need to write about this, but I’ve had clients arrive for their massage appointments after drinking. Some believe a drink will help them relax before their session, but the truth is that alcohol and massage are not a safe combination.

Before entering a home or office, something as simple as wiping your feet or leaving shoes at the door can do more than keep floors clean. Across cultures, this practice has long been associated with energy and well-being. In China and Japan, for example, removing shoes before entering a home is a standard custom. Beyond hygiene, it is believed to help prevent negative energy from entering the space, keeping the environment harmonious and balanced.

The most essential key to both giving and receiving a great massage is communication. Open dialogue between client and therapist is vital for every session and sets the foundation for a safe, effective, and personalized experience.
