MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS! WHOLE BODY VIBRATION
Covid messing with your workout routine??
I am excited to introduce Whole Body Vibration, WBV, now available at Therapeutic Tranquility! Studies have shown that WBV is beneficial for reducing pain, increasing balance, toning the body, and even weight loss. The vibration causes the muscles to activate to maintain your balance. The Rumblex model that I purchased has up/down oscillation, side-to-side lateral movement, pulsation, and the ability to combine all 3 movements. It also has 60 speed settings for your own unique workout. There are 3 preset programs, manual mode, resistance bands, mini-bands, a poster with suggested exercises, and Bluetooth. Combine all that together and you have a great work-out! All programs are only 10 minutes in length, as it is equivalent to an hour in the gym. I will be offering this as a part of a monthly wellness package/membership and will be offering one free trial session with your appointment. Plan on an extra 15 minutes in addition to your regular time for massage to try out the Rumblex! Full details have yet to be worked out, but I will send an update as soon as this goes live! I have linked a few of the many research articles below.

SUGAR SCRUB Sugar Scrub scent for the month of December is:
Peppermint Pine! This is a stand-alone service that includes dry brushing OR an add-on for the hands & feet. GIFT CARDS Gift cards through the end of the month are 20% off! These can be purchased online for an e-gift card or in person. Can not be used by the purchaser! Has to be gifted to someone. COLD & INCLEMENT WEATHER Due to Covid, I am NOT using a blanket, but am using my table warmer. Please feel free to bring your own blanket. I have been able to utilize my thick towels, but with sugar scrubs, I may not have my towels available for you. There is nothing worse than getting a massage and being cold/shivering the whole time your body is trying to relax! If there is a severe snow storm, I do NOT expect you to come in. Please give me a call or text and we can reschedule, no fee. Massage and the fear of getting charged for a cancellation is not worth getting into an accident due to inclement conditions. CREDIT/DEBIT CARD FEE Effective January 1st: a 4% fee will apply if paying by credit card. If you have any suggestions, aside from Square, for check-out, please let me know and I will look into it to see if it can be integrated into my scheduling system. I apologize for the inconvenience! As always, you can pay with cash or check as well. REFERRAL SPECIAL Effective now until Dec 31st, if you refer 3 people to me, (this includes Gift Certificates,) and they keep their appointment and mention your name, you will receive a free 30-minute massage. This can be a free stand-alone massage, or you can upgrade to a 90, or 120 minute massage with the free 30 minute discount. This will supercede any other referral discount previously advertised. COVID Just a reminder that I do ask that if you are experiencing ANY symptoms of illness, PLEASE reschedule with me! As always, I take your health and safety seriously. Everything gets Lysol wiped/sprayed down after each massage and I utilize my UV sanitizer. I change my shirt after each client as well, and I wear a mask and have masks available for your use as well. I am not using a blanket, but please feel free to bring in your own, especially since the cooler weather is coming! Please visit my website for more information about what I am doing to minimize your risk of getting COVID when receiving massage from me.
