Welcome to Blackbird!

"All your life...you were only waiting for this moment to arise."  ~The Beatles


Many people ask me how I chose the name Blackbird Massage Therapy. There are two reasons really: Blackbird is my favorite song by my favorite band--The Beatles and I have a strong affinity for crows and ravens. They seem to show up at important times in my life and crows symbolize your ability to manifest your fate, which is what I believe I'm doing by opening my own massage practice.

A year ago, I left the corporate world with the determination to find my passion again and do what I was meant to do. I believe I found that and I'm so happy that my first month with Blackbird was a success.

In May I had my grand opening, met and worked with some wonderful, new clients, provided chair massage to my old colleagues and for some other corporate clients. I also had a photo shoot at the office and got some great shots! Here are just a few of them:





 
May was exciting...and a bit scary...to say the least. I never pictured myself as the 'entrepreneur' type, but I have a lot of support from the people most important to me and my reason for getting into the massage business is simple: I want to help you feel better! Whether you just need to zone out for an hour and have a little "me" time or you're dealing with a chronic ache or pain and need relief--I'm here to help.
 
Thank you for those that have booked appointments and those that are taking advantage of the referral card program. If you don't know about that awesome program, here's more information: 
 
 
*Referral Program*
 
At the end of your first treatment you will receive 3 gift cards (1/2 hours) to give to friends or family.
 
Every time I get one of those cards back from someone you referred, you get a free 1/2 hour gift card.
 
Just my way of saying thanks for the word of mouth and to be able to see you often! :)
 
 
June is shaping up to be a great month and I hope to see all of you very soon. Enjoy the summer weather, be safe, spend time with the ones you love, and make sure you take time for you!
