Happy Earth Day! Here’s what I’ve been up to. I am hoping to produce my own strawberries and blueberries. Planted them on March 14th and in 8 short days there has been lots of new growth!

It’s a great day to enjoy the nice weather if you can! These are difficult times, and while our pets may love the fact that we are home all the time, it’s definitely stressful. These are crazy times, but it’s an opportunity to try and find something new! I’ve recently started following Tai Chi lessons online and teaching myself. It’s great for mental health, as it’s a meditative martial art and definitely takes your mind off of reality for awhile, by relaxing both mind and body. Jasper (the dog) loves it too! #sunshine #relaxation #registeredmassagetherapist #taichi #dogs #socialisolation #covid19 #stayhome

Wishing everyone a safe and Happy Easter from Westwind Massage Therapy! We hope you and your families are staying healthy! #supportlocal #happyeaster #massagetherapy #registeredmassagetherapist #westwind #supportdowntown #barrie

I recently got to take part in the 3rd annual Rotary Club of Barrie Huronia Women's Show 2019, providing hand massages for event attendees. This event supported the local community and all the proceeds went to the Women's and Children's Shelter in Barrie. It was a fun-filled evening, and great to see so many people coming out to support our community! #rotarywomensshow #community #downtownbarrie #shoplocal #supportlocal #massagetherapy

The other day I felt a headache come on, due to a change in the weather. I am not new to these types of headaches, that sit at the back of the head and radiate into the neck, but I started to really think about the way it made me feel and related it to a similar headache; one you get from weaning off of coffee. So, I began to think well, maybe if I had a coffee (which I dont drink on a regular basis) this would get rid of the headache, and it did! Then I started to think, as... medically minded people do well, then I know that caffeine is a vasoconstrictor, so maybe the low weather pressure system causes too much vasodilation. I looked into it and found that I was correct in my assumption! A low-pressure system can induce what is referred to as a Spontaneous Induced Hypotension (SIH) headache. When I was furthering my investigation I actually came across an article that said that coffee / caffeine may help some people with these types of atmospheric low-pressure headaches! So, the next time this happens, I will be reaching for a cup of java instead of ibuprofen as it never seems to really help! http://westwindtherapy.com/atmospheric-pressure-headaches/

May is hypertension awareness month, which simply means high blood pressure. High blood pressure can be caused by many things and should be managed by your doctor. However, there are many things you can do to help reduce your blood pressure like; reducing the salt in your diet, getting exercise and the right amount of sleep. Along with these recommendations you should also consider getting regular massage for stress reduction. Both physical and mental stress can drive your bl...ood pressure up. Always let your massage therapist know prior to your treatment if you have high blood pressure, as there may be certain precautions or accommodations that they will need to make to your treatment. http://westwindtherapy.com/hypertension-month/
