Bellingham Massage Clinic

I’m a huge proponent of massage. I don’t care where you go, my clinic or another one, the point is to get massage and be happy with your therapist!  However, you should choose the massage business you support carefully. Sadly, massage hasn’t always had a good reputation. All over the world and here in our […]

This whole week my office building’s roof has been getting replaced. I tried working on Monday. Nah, didn’t work as well as I had hoped. (I’m crossing my fingers they’ll be done by Monday next week so I can get back to what I love doing.) Instead of taking a full work vacation I’ve been doing […]

Stress management is something we all can do better. While certainly getting a massage weekly – or if you are really lucky a few times a week – will help, it’s what you do away from my office that counts the most. If you have difficulty managing stress in general, the effects from a massage […]

A bit over a week ago my main phone died and took with it, among personal things, my work calender. With the help of my clients I’ve remedied most of the issue. However, if you didn’t receive a phone call from me and you know you are scheduled in the month of June you might […]

It’s that time of year again. Summer should be right around the corner (hopefully) and it’s time to take some time off! I have a couple of shorter vacations scheduled this year. Just a reminder, if I don’t return your phone call, text or email super quickly it’s because I’m off enjoying a little relaxation […]

A few times a year I get asked if I offer massage packages. Apologetically I say that I don’t, *sad-frowny face,* sorry. I was asked again recently and totally had a moment of clarity. I need/want to explain why I don’t offer them and more people need to hear/understand.  This is what I do for […]

Can you take my insurance? Part Two Navigating insurance can be complicated. Unfortunately, there are several reasons using your insurance might not be an option. The most common reason I come across is that massage benefits aren’t included in a plan. Blue Cross Blue Shield plans from outside of Washington State often exclude massage completely […]

Can I bill your insurance? Maybe, maybe not. Obviously people want to keep their healthcare as affordable as possible. Often this includes wanting to use health insurance to cover massage therapy. I know how confusing it can be and as such I am always happy to look into it for clarification. Unfortunately, it’s a common […]

I follow and donate to a couple of animal charities in our area. Today I want to touch on WeSNiP. You probably heard that they provide affordable spay and neutering for low-income people and their pets. Originally they worked out of a huge bus but now have a static location they share with Animal Emergency […]

I’ve offered gift certificates for awhile now. Not too long after I started offering them up here I saw a need for different options aside from just coming in to buy a gift certificate. In case you live out of state or your schedule doesn’t allow you to come in and pick them up, I […]
