🤬Motivational Monday: Why Your Traps Are Mad at You

Alright, let’s talk about those upper traps—you know, the ones that feel like bricks and yell at you every time you glance at a computer screen, hold your phone, or exist as a human in 2025?

Here’s the tea: Your trapezius muscles are low-key furious, and here’s why:

💻 You’re probably hunched over.📱 You're scrolling with shoulders up to your ears like it's a fashion trend.😬 You clench when stressed—like, all the time.👜 Your purse weighs more than a toddler.

But fear not! Your friendly neighborhood massage therapist is here with some trap-taming tips:

🔥 Mini Trap Reset (60 seconds of bliss):

1. Drop your shoulders (seriously, let ‘em go).

2. Take 3 slow breaths.

3. Roll your shoulders backward like you’re at a middle school dance.

4. Stretch your neck side to side—gently. You’re not a Pez dispenser.

5. Book a massage (that’s the golden ticket, obviously).

   
   

Pro tip: Your traps are trying to help. They’re like the loyal, overachieving assistant who doesn’t know how to take a day off. Show them some love. Better yet—let me help them chill out.

Because tight traps don’t get medals. They get massages.

Here’s to lighter shoulders and better Mondays!

Stay loose out there,
