EPISODE 041: How Ayurvedic Doshas Can Inform Your Bodywork

Are you familiar with the doshas in Ayurvedic medicine?

  • Pitta
  • Vata
  • Kapha

All unique, and all with their own set of considerations when it comes to bodywork.

On this episode of “Align with The Massage Business Mama,” we are joined by Kimberly Kubicke of Indra Holistic to learn a little more about this ancient Indian medicine and why tapotement and other methods might be more appropriate for certain body types.

But before we dig in, do you know your body type?

Take the quiz at www.indraholistic.com to find out. (Side note: Ali was NOT what she thought she was!!!)

As Kimberly explains in this episode, we are a mix of all three types, but usually, one is predominant! We learn how to identify the different types and what treatment methods are more appropriate based on these observations.

Let me be crystal clear: I don't believe that disc Let me be crystal clear: I don't believe that discounting is always the answer or the sole path to growing a successful massage business. 🚫

However, that doesn't mean there aren't times when strategic discounting can be a smart move! 🤝

I’m seeing something concerning and, dare I say, I’m seeing something concerning and, dare I say, toxic in the massage coaching world right now. The idea that discounting your massage service devalues you and the work you do and should be avoided at all costs. 

Now, do I think discounting is always appropriate or the only way to grow a massage business? NO!!! But that doesn’t mean there aren’t times when strategic discounting is appropriate! 

If you are struggling to establish your practices, please don’t feel ashamed or inadequate for considering this strategy. You are not a failure! Many therapists used discounting to fill their schedule at the beginning of their practice! It is ONE very effective tool for building a business! Is it the only tool? No, but yes, it is a tool!!! 

Don’t let the pressure to conform to the “no discounting” norm negatively impact your self-esteem or hinder your professional growth.

Discounting is ONE technique towards building a thriving massage practice! And you shouldn’t feel shame about implementing this technique. 

Got it?!?

Why do we do this to ourselves? 🤔 We know body Why do we do this to ourselves? 🤔

We know body mechanics are important, yet so often we neglect our own well-being when giving massage.

It's time to ensure that we, the healers, remain in good health too.

Let's make a commitment to treat our bodies as kindly as we treat our clients'.
