Kristen McFarland

Hosmer Chiropractic Health

Kristen is a graduate of East-West College of the Healing Arts, and a Licensed Massage Therapist. She is an East Coast transplant, and loves being a part of the Portland community! Kristen specializes in trauma informed care, with a medical/therapeutic style. As an Army veteran, she is experienced in working with people coping with trauma, PTSD and anxiety. Her goal is to make everyone feel like they are the most important person in the world while they are on her table! She uses multiple techniques to bring about physical healing in the musculature, from gentle work to deep tissue release. Kristen believes that good communication is the foundation for successful healing, and works closely with clients to discover the source of any pain or discomfort. She considers herself a ‘puzzle solver’, and wants to help her patients with dysfunction figure out the source - both on and off the table! Massage has given her a way to help others cope with their experiences in a safe, inclusive, understanding environment. When Kristen isn’t working or thinking about massage, she spends her time with family and friends. She loves to camp, visit the ocean, and jam out on Rock Band (drums!). She has three amazing (adult) children, and is blessed to have massage as her calling. She loves having the best job in the world!
