We specialize in bodywork like Myofascial Release, Neuromuscular Therapy, and Mesoamerican Sobadas. With over 15 years of experience, our lead therapist Daniel Vargas provides medical massage and the traditional healing practices of Central America.</span></p></div>

The design should have the following

We are indigenous owned and operated so including elements of our culture would be much appreciated. Any symbols, motifs, or glyphs from the Nahua, Chorotega, and Taino people are what we would like represented. You can draw inspiration from things like Water, Wood, and Stones as they are prevalent in our practice (hot stones, wooden tools, steam rooms know as temazcals) as well as healing elements in our indigenous culture. We want to convey that this is a medical massage practice but without the sterile nature medical logos tend to have; as well as avoid the trope of massage logos with "zen" or "lotus" aesthetics. Anatomy and "Energy" are the two most important themes of our branding, our clients like that we are licensed massage professionals with an extensive knowledge on anatomy (muscles, nerves, and fascia), but still incorporate our indigenous perspective that healing is about bringing balance to the physical body and restoring life force through physiological, mental, and energetic practices. It also may help inspire logo designs to mention that our practice works with a psychedelic assisted therapy non profit. They promote mental health awareness in marginalized communities, sliding scale mental therapy sessions, and community initiatives focused on psychedelic positive art and therapy models. They too have indigenous roots (Taino to be specific) and we partner with them in offering massage and mental healthy therapy sessions.

This design should not have this in the entries

Any stereotypical "asian zen" or Ayurvedic aesthetics or motifs (shoutout to the East and South Asian community and your legacy in health and wellness, we appreciate you, but are in fact not Asian and think you too would appreciate non asians using your culture and imagery for branding)

These values are what the logo should communicate
