Community Care, Reimagined: How Indigo Is Bringing Healing to Those Who Need It Most
At Indigo, we believe that wellness shouldn't be a luxury reserved for the few — it should be woven into the fabric of everyday life, especially for the people who give the most to others.
That’s why we created the Community Care Outreach Program — a mobile wellness initiative that brings restorative, on-site chair massage directly to teachers, nurses, social workers, and other frontline helpers. These are the often-overlooked caregivers who hold entire communities together. They deserve care, too.
Why This Matters
Chronic stress and burnout are at an all-time high. The people who serve our children, care for our sick, and advocate for vulnerable populations are running on empty. They’re emotionally invested, overworked, and rarely given space to recharge.
Touch is medicine. Gentle, trauma-informed massage can recalibrate the nervous system, relieve tension, and restore a sense of calm. Even just 10–15 minutes of intentional bodywork in the middle of the day can be enough to change someone’s mood, reduce pain, and remind them they matter.
A Simple Offering, A Powerful Impact
We bring skilled practitioners directly to schools, hospitals, and community centers. Each practitioner is trained not just in massage, but in attuned presence — the kind of care that sees the person, not just the symptoms.
Here’s what one teacher shared after a recent Community Care session:
“That was the first time I’ve exhaled all week. You reminded me what it feels like to be cared for.”
This is the kind of impact that ripples outward — a cared-for caregiver can go back into their work with more capacity, compassion, and resilience.
For Employers & Community Leaders
If you oversee a team of professionals who are showing signs of burnout, compassion fatigue, or chronic stress — this program is for you. Our services can be sponsored by employers as part of staff appreciation or wellness programming, or even provided free of charge (please apply).
