Afterglow Therapies Description
Introducing myself (Kerry) as I have never before โ Afterglow Therapies! ๐
I guess I should start with the fact that this past year has been an unexpected one, and whilst Iโve been working as a registered Swedish Massage Therapist since November 2016, Iโve only just had the time and focus to get my Facebook page up and running which will hopefully follow with a website in the near future! ๐
๐ Why I love massage and want to share it with you ๐
Last year I spent nine months working at setting up my future of Massage Therapy at Scottish Massage Schools, where I gained a Diploma in Swedish Massage (DSM) but also gained incredible confidence within myself. This was a fantastic learning experience and I gained so much knowledge and self /body awareness doing the course, and ever since actively working as a Massage Therapist ๐๐ป My main goal as a therapist is to share this knowledge, confidence and awareness with others through the relaxing and healing touch of massage โ and by working with you as an individual to increase your overall health and wellbeing. ๐๐ช๐ป
๐ฎ๐ปLegal stuff ๐ฎ๐ป
Afterglow Therapies is a licenced member of SMTO (Scottish Massage Therapy Organisation), which provides a service that works under, and in accordance with, the SMTO Membership Handbook 'Practice Standards' - sections 'A. Code of Conduct', 'B. Knowledge, Skills and Performance', & 'C. Professionalism and Ethics'. This is to ensure youโre receiving a dignified, safe and respectful massage of the most regarded quality.
โข I am currently a mobile Massage Therapist, which means you can relax even before I arrive ๐
โข I am willing to travel within Inverurie, Aberdeen and surrounding areas ๐
โข I use the best quality products to ensure all aspects of massage are of great standards (I got you ๐)
๐๐ปGet in touch with your body๐๐ป
Massage Therapy is being recognised more and more for its healing properties, and while I could get in to the specifics - Iโll keep it short and sweet ๐
โข By stimulating endorphins (the bodyโs natural painkiller), massage can ease your aches and pains โ๐ป
โข Using skilled strokes, massage will increase blood and lymph flow throughout your body. In turn, this speeds up the process of healing, and provides more nutrition to cells โ๐ป
โข Massage therapists use certain pressure when working, also stretching or pumping movements. These movements serve to stretch muscle, tendons and ligaments, and bring blood and heat to the area being massaged - which improves the body overall โ๐ป
โข Not only is massage great for many physical disorders, but it has also been proven to be a great therapy for treating clients with mental health issues, such as; anxiety, depression, weight disorders and more.
I suggest you do some of your own research and see how massage could benefit you individually ๐๐ป
OR even better - pop me a message or email and Iโll do the research for you ๐
๐Why I chose massage for my future (emosh part ๐ข)
As someone who has personally struggled with anxiety, I shied away in school and found myself with a lack of direction and ended up working in care because I wanted to help people. Unfortunately โ care workers get a bad rep. However, I found out a lot about myself and the kind of people who actually worked in care and discovered that being compassionate, sensitive and caring were things that I should be really proud of myself for. ๐ I like to think that being a Massage Therapist is my own way of carrying on that caring side of my personality, and that in my continued development as a therapist - I can carry on watching people improve and help them live as happily and healthily as they can! ๐ช๐ผ๐

Well stop! โ๐ปโ๐ปโ๐ป
The worst thing you can do is compare yourself to other people! Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses and everyone has things that they would change about themselves. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
Itโs about time we were happy in our own skin and enjoyed life instead of making it one big competition. ๐๐ป
... We are all different and unique in our own special ways - if we werenโt, the world would be extremely boring. Try and embrace the differences!
All is love, Kerry โ๐ปโค๏ธ

So true! ๐๐ป
Itโs all well and good to set goals for the future - but you need to be realistic and not so hard on yourself if said goals donโt follow through. ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ
People and plans change, and nothing in life is permanent - the sooner we accept these truths, the easier life will become.
... So just let go and try to enjoy whatever life throws at you. Acknowledge your feelings (whether that be disappointment or joy or anything in between) embrace the humanness of your feelings, then move on.
All is love, Kerry โ๐ปโค๏ธ

That sounds about accurate ๐
Tonight I am working on myself by practicing yoga and deep breathing to connect with my mind/body/spirit ๐ง๐ฝโโ๏ธ
Breathe in relaxation, breathe out tension ๐คค
In an ideal world, everyone would manage their stress/anxieties well - in reality, I find it hard to do so, and many other people do to. Itโs taken me a long time to even create this self-care routine, and there are some days that simply are too much - I am only human after all.
... The best tip I can give is - if you donโt feel like doing it today - thereโs always the next day. Or the day after that.
Try not to be hard on yourself - even try talking to yourself how you would if it were someone you deeply loved.
Would you be so cruel and hard on them? If the answer is no, then be nicer to yourself!!

Here's some tips for (not just a Sunday) - but every evening that should help your mornings go smoothly! ๐ค
We all need a helping hand at being productive sometimes, and usually the best place to start is the night before ๐

How lovely! ๐
Iโve seen a lot of posts lately about bees and how we can protect them/help them survive ๐ However, does anyone actually know why bees are so very important?
๐They are the worlds most important pollinator (plants need pollinators to reproduce as they take pollen from one plant to another) ๐ ... ๐The majority of plants we consume relies on bees for pollination ๐ฑ ๐Meaning that many of our domestic fruit and veg require pollination ๐ ๐ ๐Honey bees also pollinate clover and alfalfa which feeds our beloved cattle ๐
A condition known as colony collapse disorder is causing our bee populations to drastically plummet - this means our food is at risk. Since 1990, 25% of the bee population has decreased. (Scary stuff).
So everyone listen to our beloved David Attenborough if itโs the only advice you listen to today - place a spoon of sugar water outside in your garden and we can do our part in saving our food and pollinators! ๐๐ป
All is love, Kerry โ๐ปโค๏ธ

How do you view massage? ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ง
Such a positive and relaxing experience! Being a mother of two young girls is demanding and honestly, they wear me down mentally and physically. Being able to have this therapeutic massage in my own home added the extra element of comfort and relaxation. Kerry is so kind and understanding of your needs, with the added bonus of being the easiest person to yap away to.
She definitely has healing hands, her technique feels amazing and has made me chill out in the very regularly stressful environment I create. My shoulders and back feel less tense and I canโt wait for my next session!
Kerry brings something unique to Swedish massage - versatility and compassion. A deeper understanding of what people are going through, a unique quality in among the hustle and bustle of life. More importantly... the back massage is to die for =D If anybody is in or around the Inverurie area, Kerry is your woman. โ

If I could give Kerry more than 5 stars I would! Such a lovely, relaxing and may I say rejuvenating experience I have had this evening. I highly recommend and canโt wait for next time! Thank you ๏ฟฝ
I've had a few massages and the one I received from Kerry was one of the best I've had! Was nice that she checked my comfort periodically and was so relaxing I nearly fell asleep! Highly recommended Kerry for any massage needs you have.
Great massage every time Iโve needed one!! Good luck ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ
