The name’s Kim or Kimberly- zero preference. In a previous life I was going to be a psychologist, because people & the body fascinate me. Working in the “regular” world just wasn’t my thing & was a struggle, and I didn’t feel like I was helping myself- much less anyone else. I found yoga. Life changing. Did a lot of work, learned a lot about the real me, and found my path. That sparked a hunger for more knowledge & interest in working with the body & what else I could do to make my people & my community feel better & possibly be healthier. Then came Thai Bodywork & massage and I was hooked! The one on one connection, person-centered focus…it all felt natural & true to me. Another step forward in MY path…more hunger for knowledge, desire for more “tools” in my tool belt for my people….I struck GOLD. This is MY thing and, without tooting my own horn too hard (toot toot), I am damn good at it. I love the work, I love the people I get to meet & share healing space with, I love the difference I can potentially make in a person’s day &, with dedicated work & regular sessions, life! I specialize in Myofascial Release, Therapeutic Massage, & Manual Lymphatic Drainage.
Massage
Uses a range of tools & more specialized techniques are used, the client HAS been diagnosed, with either a physical injury (carpel tunnel, frozen shoulder, etc) or chronic illness/immune disorder (fibromyalgia, Hashimoto's, ME/CFS, etc) and we primarily focus on what helps with that diagnosis & what may help alleviate any symptoms (minimize inflammation, reduce bruising &/or edema, improve mobility, ROM etc.). Scar tissue remodeling can be performed by request!
Lymphatic Drainage
Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a type of gentle massage which is intended to encourage the natural drainage of the lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart.
