In this mini usui reiki healing, we are going to release stored stagnant energy in the hips and sacral chakra. All you need is to consent to receive this healing. Relax and release what you are ready to move through. Allow any heavy feelings or sensations to come up and flow away from you. Crystal supports in this video: Apache tears (form of obsidian), rainbow moonstone and carnelian. Drink lots of water to help your body integrate the healing and new space made after this session! If you find that you need more support and didn’t realize how much you have been holding, let’s book a 1:1 session and help you move through this heaviness! Sending love and light ๐ซถ๐ผ๐โจ

Unlock your hips ๐
Our massage therapist Alyssa walks you through the key ranges of motion your hips should move through—and how to actually control them.
From flexion to extension, internal to external rotation, this is your guide to moving better, not just more.
Tight, stiff, or feeling off? Start here. Awareness → control → strength.
Save this and use it as your hip check-in before workouts or on recovery days ๐
Ready to explore Reiki and awaken your healing gifts? โจ

Leaking isn’t always just a pelvic floor problem ๐
Your hips play a bigger role than most people realize. When they’re weak, tight, or not moving well, it can affect how your pelvic floor supports your bladder.
That can mean:
• Less support
• More pressure
• Poor coordination
But here’s something even more important ๐
Sometimes the issue isn’t just strength… it’s communication.
Hypertonic (overactive) or even underactive/paralyzed muscles can be linked to poor nervous system communication.
That’s where a more comprehensive approach matters:
โจ Targeted adjustments (like Gonstead) to support nerve function
โจ Myofascial work to help restore healthy pelvic floor tissue
โจ Tools like a foam roller or pelvic floor wand for at-home support
โจ Hip strength + mobility
โจ Pelvic floor coordination
You don’t have to rely on Kegels alone ๐
โ๏ธ
Small, intentional changes can make a big difference.
Save this for later ๐พ

Enjoy this hip focused flow! The idea behind this sequence is that you can make it your own and spend more or less time in each posture. Connective tissue and fascia releases with time to unwind. Listen to your body and maybe you spend different amounts of time on each side. Finding balance in your body is going to be a unique experience. Use your breath and be intentional with each movement. Slow and controlled with expansion of your ribcage off your pelvis. Reconnect with your hips, they are holding so much and want to release the tension and stagnant energy.
โจ The magic continues… โจ

Grief doesn’t just live in our minds—it can live in our bodies too. ๐
The hips are a major center for tension, stress, and emotional holding. When we experience grief, our nervous system can subconsciously tighten the muscles around the hips, making us feel stuck, heavy, or restricted.
Notice how your body feels today. Are your hips tight? Your lower back tense? That’s your body’s way of responding—and it’s completely normal.
Gentle movement, breathwork, and body awareness can help—but sometimes your body needs extra support. That’s where we can help.

Movement Monday ๐ฅ
Alyssa is breaking down the good morning (hip hinge) — a foundational pattern most people think they’re doing right… but usually aren’t.
The goal isn’t to bend forward — it’s to push your hips back while keeping your spine neutral.
A few things to focus on:
• soft bend in the knees
• hips drive back, not down
• ribs stacked over hips
• feel tension in the hamstrings, not your low back
Dial this in and it carries over to deadlifts, squats, and everyday movement.
Save this and give it a try next time you train ๐

Your hips are closely connected to the sacral chakra—the center of creativity, emotion, and fluid movement. Opening the hips can help release stored tension and support a more natural flow of energy through the body. ๐งก #SacralChakra #HipMobility #MindBodyConnection
