Did you know February is the month of hearts? Of course, we all know Valentine’s Day is February 14th (well, hopefully...if not, this is your official reminder!) but there’s also a lesser known heart-related cause to keep in mind this month: a reminder to take care of our hearts. February is designated as American Heart Month. The month holds many initiatives to bring awareness to heart health. From free screenings to health fair events, there are many efforts being made to educate the public and prevent heart disease. And for good reason; heart disease is the number one cause of death for men and women in the United States. Scary, huh? One of our favorite initiatives is the GO RED for Women movement. GO RED doesn’t just mean to wear red, it’s actually an acronym meant to encourage you to engage in several activities to protect yourself and others from heart disease. It stands for: G et your numbers, O wn your lifestyle, R ealize your risk, E ducate your family, and D on’t be silent. What does it mean to own your lifestyle? It means taking ownership of the way you live, and the things that can be done to improve your health. For instance, getting your recommended amount of exercise per week (at least 150 minutes of moderate to high intensity exercise). Luckily for you, as always, we’ve got you covered during the Month of Hearts. This February, give your loved ones the gift of massage (yes, we do couple’s massages too), and give your employees the gift of a healthy heart by helping them get some movement in the office (hint: we gave you a good idea on how in last week’s blog ). Do your part, protect your heart!

It’s officially that time of year...post-Christmas, pre-New Year’s. Is it just me or does this feel a bit like the twilight zone? This week between holidays is sloooowwww. You’re probably done holiday shopping, which will likely remove a bit of stress. However, with New Year’s being around the corner and resolutions awaiting, the hustle and bustle is not yet over! Cue...more stress. Which means, maybe it’s time to revisit the topic of holiday shopping. Chances are that amongst gift shopping for all your loved ones and the important people in your life, you may have forgotten one of the most important people of all: YOURSELF. You deserve a holiday treat just as much as everyone else on your list, so now may be the perfect time to treat yourself to a massage at the top-rated massage studio in Miami according to Yelp reviewers. And if your New Year’s Resolutions involve being more active ( the third most popular resolution for 2020 – scroll down for the infograph), it’s likely you’ll soon be dealing with sore muscles. What better way to treat them than with a therapeutic massage? If you think you might need a little more relaxation than what you can get from a traditional massage, take a look at all of our massage services . We don’t believe in up-charges. With us, you pay one price no matter what add-ons you select. Hot stones or cupping, anyone? 😊 Unwind, de-stress, and revive yourself just in time for the new year so that you can start 2020 with a refreshed mind AND body. #christmas, #holidays, #gifts, #holidayshopping, #health, #selfcare, #selflove
