My Clients kept telling me my neck hurts, I get headaches and my skin is so dry

Written By Lety Soto

I kept hearing my neck hurts and I get Headaches

I've been working on something for awhile and think I finally figured it out.

Over the years, I've noticed a pattern with almost every client I see. Whether they're coming in for a massage or a facial, they almost always hold so much tension in the same places the neck, shoulders, jaw, scalp, and face. And often times they don’t even realize how tight their face is and how much that is contributing to their neck pain, headaches, and dry skin.

Everyone is feeling stressed, tired and overwhelmed but they don’t come in saying that, they say “my neck hurts, I can’t turn my head, my shoulders are in my ears, my skin is so dry, I’m getting headaches. I can’t get a goodnights sleep.”

We get so used to feeling this way that we think this is normal. But it doesn’t have to be.

When I started focusing on those areas in my services, and I kept hearing the same thing over and over...

"Wow...I didn't realize how tight I was."

That got me thinking.

Massage or Facial which do you need?

Massage helps release tension throughout the body. Facials help care for your skin. But what about the space in between?  I tried adding massage elements to a facial to make it more relaxing but I realized I just needed to create a whole NEW SERVICE.

Therapeutic Facial

It's a treatment built around therapeutic facial massage with a focus on releasing the tension in your neck and shoulders and includes nourishing and hydrating skincare a massage and facial hybrid. This is ideal if you are always feeling anxious, have headaches or dry skin.

Service Options

Therapeutic Massage:

A Whole Body session with focus on pain &  tension. Helps with pain, stress and feeling tired and achy all the time. Learn more

Therapeutic Facial:

An Upper Body session for head, face, neck and shoulders with helps with stress, anxiety and neck pain. Gives your skin a refresh. Learn More

Signature Facials:

The signature facials that you already enjoy.  Designed to brighten and hydrate your skin, with relaxing massage included. Learn more

If any of these sound  like something you need right now, I'd love to see you.

I’m so excited to offer Therapeutic Facials, its an option that I feel has been missing from my services because I see the gap between a massage and a facial and as a dual Massage Therapist & Esthetician I am uniquely qualified to combine the two. This new service is a wonderful way to get the benefits of both.

Clenching doesn’t just happen when you sleep but it does cause neck pain and headaches. Clenching creates tension in your jaw muscles and that pulls on your neck, eyes and scalp. Face massage is super helpful and you can feel immediate relief
