Bellingham Massage Clinic

In the last few weeks so much has changed in our world as a whole and in the world of massage. What has stayed consistent is the need to protect each other from transmission of the virus. Currently, Washington state is still under a stay-at-home order and massage, except in very rare cases, is not […]

Hello everyone, I wanted to provide a new update to my illness policy: Due to the spread of the coronavirus worldwide I’m tightening my rules surrounding massage and sickness. If you are scheduled for a massage with me and you feel like you are coming down with something, even if all you have are mild […]

Recently I decided that I wanted to condense my schedule in the near future. Generally, I work less than I did two years ago (this is me being responsible and taking my own self-care advice; I’ve been practicing for just over twelve years and massage is hard work!) and I moved out of the city […]

In early 2018 I, and thus Bellingham Massage Clinic, stopped taking all major medical insurances (this does exclude PIP insurance which a person uses when they are in a car accident – I still bill this insurance!). It was a hard but necessary decision. For the previous few years the administrative work involved in billing […]

There are easy options for choosing where it should be shipped. And finally, you can even choose to purchase multiple gift certificates as […]

Most people have heard that sleep is important. In spite of this, many of us continue to survive on less than adequate sleep. If a problem isn’t immediately apparent, everything is fine right? Not necessarily. In June of this year Dr. Kirk Parsley M.D. spoke at TEDxReno, covering the importance of sleep. He touched on how […]

I will be out of town next week for vacation. As such my office will be closed Monday the 22nd through Friday the 26th. I will be back to work as normal on Monday the 29th. Thank you!

As most of my clients know, I strive to use high quality, organic products in my practice. For many years I’ve been using organic jojoba for a massage oil. However, in recent years, I’ve been prompted to re-evaluate my jojoba usage. It is a wonderful oil (actually it’s a liquid wax) and I love using […]

Later this month I will be moving offices. The new space is in the Bellingham Towers Building. My new address will be 119 N Commercial St #410, Bellingham, WA 98225. My hope is to have all the moving done the weekend of June 21st-22nd so I’ll be able to start afresh in my new space […]
