YOU. NEED. A. MASSAGE.
This parenting stuff is HARD!
But where? Who can you trust?
Let me introduce you to SoDu Parents Posse member, local mom, and licensed massage therapist Claire Heymans, LMBT.
As Claire says, "Stressed and feeling worn out from chasing your babes around, working, or just life in general? Need a little me time? I know that feeling all too well. As a busy mom I understand the need to get away and I would like to help you escape from it all. "
Claire is a former Medical Personal Trainer with an educational background in Exercise Physiology. She has worked extensively with the human body in all its shapes and forms as well as many medical limitations. She says it best - "I enjoy helping my clients reach a deeper understanding of relaxation and healing through massage. I have a passion for aromatherapy and reflexology and often incorporate these into a session when I feel called to help enhance your body's ability to heal. I want you to feel relaxed, rejuvenated, and refreshed when you leave my office."

Swedish Massage, a deep relaxation massage that involves various strokes that help melt the stress away.
Deep Tissue Massage, a technique that uses a more focused approach to your aching muscles. This helps relieve aches and pains in specific areas and muscles to leave you feeling loose and rejuvenated.
Hot Stone Massage, which incorporates the use of warmed stones to help heat and promote circulation through your body. This helps relieve tension found in the deeper layers of muscles. The heat also helps promote a very deep state of relaxation.
Going Green Bamboo Massage, which includes the use of warmed bamboo tools. The sticks are able to glide over your body and relax even the tightest of muscles. You will feel a deep state of relaxation and rejuvenation.
Combination Hot Stones and Warm Bamboo, incorporates the use of both the warmed stones and bamboo tools. This massage gives you the best of both worlds. The sticks help rejuvenate tired muscles through long lengthening strokes while the stones help bring heat and relaxation to more focused trouble areas.
Ayurvedic Massage, focuses on supporting your personal Doshas. Dosha is an Indian word that means energy. There are three types of Doshas found throughout your body: Vata, Pitta and Kapha. With information from a short intake form, I will customize your massage by using essential oils to help support and strengthen your personal doshas.
Sweet Feet Aromatherapy and Hot Rockin’ Reflexology, is the ultimate in relaxing foot treatments. This treatment starts with a warm foot bath and scrub using customized aromatherapy. You then move to a table where warmed stones are used to massage your tired and achy feet and reflexology is used to help promote healing and rejuvenation to the rest of your body. Be prepared to melt away.
Just reading all of the amazing things she offers is making me relax!
So imagine how great Claire's actual massages are!

- Rachel
"Congratulations! Claire, you are a gifted therapist and healer, and I am excited that you have returned to massage. Here's to a fantastic journey ahead!"
- Michael
Her philosophy is that massage "should be an integral part of every ones self care regime. The benefits of regular massage include reduced pain in joints and muscles, decrease in blood pressure and feelings of stress. It can help reduce the symptoms of mental illness and help increase overall well being. I want you to feel relaxed, rejuvenated, and refreshed when you leave my office."
Appointments are available when you are ready to relax on the weekend, instead of having to jump right back in the workweek after such a nice massage. You can schedule an appointment with Claire for a Hot Stone, Ayurvedic, or any one of her amazing massage options between 1 - 5pm on Saturdays or Sundays and take full advantage of the wonderful way you'll feel afterwards. Why waste money on a massage when you just have to go right back to work or pick up the kids? Enjoy one on a lovely, restful weekend afternoon and have your own mini vacation!
