Kara is an incredibly talented massage therapist. Her background is in physical therapy and yoga, and her in depth knowledge of the body truly shows. From the moment I arrived Kara was calm, kind and professional and her demeanor immediately put me at ease. She took time before I arrived to set up the space to make me feel comfortable and safe. Before she began any bodywork Kara sat me down and explained the process to me (this was only the 3rd professional massage I've had in my lifetime, so that was much appreciated) and instructed me on how to direct my breath and intention to maximize the healing effects of the work she was about to do. The massage was incredible, she intuitively knew exactly what to do to help my body to release and my mind to let go. I had been sick the week prior and was still low on energy, but after working with Kara I left feeling calm, energized and renewed- a feeling that stayed with me for days after our session! One of my favorite parts was chatting about my experience over alkalized cucumber water at the end. :)
The massage was so wonderful that I even sent my husband to her the following week! I'm hoping he'll write a review of his own, but he had been struggling with stressful circumstances at work and had not been himself for a while. He came home from his session with Kara happier than I'd seen him in weeks! I was thrilled! Whatever work Kara did must have opened up some space for him to gain some perspective, because within a couple of days he was able to effectively solve his work-related problems that he had been carrying with him for quite some time!
Thank you Kara! I'll definitely be back :) read more
