Mind-Body Calm

I’ll be your Massage Therapist!

Hi I’m Karen, Massage Therapist, and I’m passionate about working with people dealing with CHRONIC STRESS and ANXIETY.

My practice focuses primarily on alleviating the mental and physical effects of CHRONIC STRESS and ANXIETY for clients. Those who experience anxiety or chronic stress in their lives can feel aches and pains often due to the build-up of tension in the tissues (muscles, connective tissue, fascia). Tension headaches, upper back, shoulder and neck pain, as well as sleep disorders or concentration issues are some of the most common side-effects of stress and anxiety.

A need for downtime, especially when you have hectic days is essential to alleviating stress and anxiety. You need to be able to process the deep thoughts and strong feelings that come with feeling overwhelmed.

I know first hand the importance of self care and how chaotic and overwhelming life can start to feel after you’ve placed your needs last for the umpteenth time. I also understand from both my massage training and personal experience how significant massage can be for people who experience stress and anxiety. Therapeutic touch can provide calming and grounding sensations, creating a felt sense of safety. Feel clear-minded and in control. Become empowered rather than depleted.
