Veteran Program Goals - ForeverNow Massage & Coaching

At ForeverNow Massage and Coaching, we are committed to creating comprehensive, research-driven protocols to help veterans manage PTSD, chronic pain, and physical trauma through specialized massage therapy. Our program goals include:

Expanding Access to Massage Therapy for Veterans: As a VA Community Provider, we are actively working to remove barriers that prevent veterans from receiving the holistic, non-pharmaceutical pain and stress management solutions they need.
Developing Research-Based PTSD Recovery Protocols: We aim to conduct peer-reviewed case studies that establish the effectiveness of massage therapy in alleviating PTSD symptoms, which will further our advocacy for standardized massage care within the VA system.
Hiring and Training Veterans as Therapists: We strongly believe in employing and empowering veterans by training them in trauma-informed massage therapy, providing stable career opportunities while also ensuring that our clients receive care from professionals who understand their experiences firsthand.
Advocacy for Policy Change: By building relationships with VA providers, policymakers, and healthcare professionals, we aim to expand insurance coverage and VA referrals for massage therapy, making it more accessible to veterans in need.
Holistic and Integrated Healing Approach: We incorporate Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Quantum Healing, and evidence-based massage techniques to provide a comprehensive approach to physical and emotional healing.

By achieving these goals, ForeverNow Massage and Coaching seeks to improve the quality of life for veterans, reduce dependency on pharmaceutical interventions, and establish massage therapy as an essential component of PTSD treatment.

Mindy did a great job! She covered all the areas I needed and I felt so much better the next day. I look forward to going back.

Mindy is an amazing therapist and is able to connect on many levels. She listens and tailors a plan to meet your needs and provides recommendations from her experience that work for me.

I believe she does a wonderful job. I had surgery on July 11, so I am going for the lymphatic massages. You can tell a difference, I wish I would have known to do this anytime you have a surgery (that may create excess fluid). Mindy is so knowledgeable about how the body will react to different things and understands the "easier on the body" remedies. She is also easy to make accommodations that work for you. I will recommend her many times in the future.

I had so much stress and pain in my body. I just moved to Georgia and was researching places to go. I came across her website and felt drawn to come here. Mindy was Amazing!!!! She took the time to talk with me, focus on my concerns and the pain in my neck and shoulders was gone by the time I got off the table. I will be back no need to research any other places!! Best massage ever!!

After reading her website I knew I had found the right place to schedule a massage for my wife and I. Mindy is very professional and we communicated well. She takes her profession seriously and we had an overall great experience. Already started recommending her to friends in the area.

Mindy is the best. She's great and professional and knows her trade. My husband had problems with his shoulder and hasn't been able to move them in 18 years, he's now great with her services! I recommend her highly

Although I have only had 1 session so far (90 minutes), I have improved substantially. I've suffered from intense migraines for over 22 years, which were then accompanied by neck/shoulder pain for the last 10 years or so. It eventually became obvious that the two were linked, and so I sought out help with that new information in mind.I have been to neurologists, ENTs, close to a dozen chiropractors, I've had dry needling performed from multiple doctors, I've been to physical therapists, I've had numerous MRI scans and I've been given a plethora of pharmaceuticals to take for both pain & "treatment."With all of that said, I have never had such a vast improvement after just one single visit. I feel so relieved and hopeful that this truly is the solution to my problems and I so very much look forward to the subsequent visits to come. You can tell that Mindy really knows what she's doing and has the strength in her hands to back it up! I was afraid I wouldn't be able to endure the pain due to how much I hurt on a daily basis, but that wasn't the case at all and what little pain there was felt productive.I apologize for my long review, but I feel it's important to address how bad off I am and just how greatly this has helped! Enduring so much pain for so long is quite exhausting and depressing, among other things, so I'm overwhelmed to know that there just might be a silver lining! Thank you so very much, Mindy and I hope to come back sooner rather than later!

Mindy is an excellent massage therapist. She is very attentive and listens to your comments and concerns and always adjusts as necessary. You will not be disappointed and you won't have to look for anyone else.

Mindy is so professional and nice. After my one hour session I felt more relaxed than I have in a long time. If I had the money, I'd go every week!

Mindy is amazing! She gives the best massage of anyone, and my husband has seen many! He originally sent me to Mindy and I am so thankful. She takes the time to learn about you and your needs. She remembers the little things, like my extremely sensitive skin and that certain scents will trigger my migraines. She is professional, respectful, knowledgeable, and caring. I can't say enough good things about her and the quality of her work. She is a tremendous blessing to me!

Mindy did an amazing job! She is a very gifted massage therapist! Can't wait for my next appointment!

I am amazed and very happy that massages by Mindy have helped pain that existed in my neck for over 10 years go away completely. I had previously been to many chiropractors and other massage therapists who helped to a point, but it wasn’t until being massaged by Minday that the pain went completely away. VERY impressive!!!!
