The People's Elbow

Mutual Aid Massage

"This isn't a gimmick. It's mutual aid with muscle."

Fighting the Forces of Tension, one elbow at a time!

Our Mission

Justice. Relief. One elbow at a time.

The People's Elbow stands ready to defend your community against the Forces of Tension! We're not just another massage service - we're a mutual aid initiative bringing care directly to card shops, community markets, and spaces where people gather.

With our 50/50 split model, we ensure that both the massage therapist and host venues benefit equally. When you join the Convention of Tension Prevention, you become part of a movement dedicated to community wellness. No upselling, no data collection, just pure community-focused care.

No Mission Creep

We amplify local causes without imposing our own agenda.

Mutual Aid over Branding

We serve communities without collecting emails or upselling packages.

Kayfabe with Integrity

Our superhero persona makes care approachable with sincere intentions.

Who is The People's Elbow?

Licensed Massage Therapist. Community Organizer. Tension-Fighting Superhero.

Behind the golden cape is Alex, Licensed MT #013193 - a massage therapist who believes that community care shouldn't cost communities their autonomy.

The People's Elbow persona emerged from a simple realization: wellness services can feel intimidating or clinical. A superhero character makes care more approachable while maintaining professional standards and genuine therapeutic skill.

"Proving that communities can build their own infrastructure for care. One massage, one venue, one $10/year website at a time."

Licensed MT #013193 - Professional credentials, superhero heart
