Andrea Peckford, RMT | Update 🌿
After returning from a much needed two week summer vacation, I’ve had to make a decision that, truthfully, isn’t an easy one for me.
At this time, I am unable to accept any new massage therapy clients for the remainder of 2026.
I love what I do. I love helping people, and my natural instinct is always to try to find another opening, squeeze someone in, or somehow make the schedule work. But I’ve also realized that continuing to do that isn’t sustainable.
This decision is not about wanting to work less or caring any less about my clients. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. This year, I increased my regular three-day work week back to five days in an effort to help meet the growing demand for massage therapy in our area. Even with those additional days, the demand continues to exceed what I can sustainably provide.
I want to continue being an RMT for many years to come. I want to show up for every person who enters my treatment room with the energy, attention, care, and quality of treatment they deserve, while still having something left for my family and for myself at the end of the day.
Protecting that balance means recognizing my capacity before burnout makes that decision for me.
What does this mean going forward?
For the remainder of 2026, my practice will remain focused on my existing clientele.
In January 2027, if my schedule has availability, I will temporarily open online booking to new clients. That booking window will only remain open for a short period and will close again once I have reached a sustainable number of clients.
If you are hoping to become a client, please continue to check my page for updates, as any openings or changes to new-client availability will be posted here.
I know there are people who have been hoping to book with me, and I genuinely appreciate every referral, recommendation, message, and person who has trusted me enough to reach out.
And to my existing clients: thank you. Your continued trust in me and my work is something I never take for granted.
Creating boundaries around my practice is ultimately how I hope to keep doing the work I love, without sacrificing my own well-being or the time that belongs to my family.
Sometimes taking care of the person who welcomes you into the treatment room is part of making sure I can continue taking care of the people who enter it.
Thank you for understanding, for respecting this boundary, and for continuing to support.
Andrea Peckford, RMT.
