Having been in practice since 2017, I possess a range of skills that will help you find relief from pain and stress. My massage therapy practice is characterized by a targeted and methodical approach, focusing on the unique needs of each client. Specializing in deep tissue and trigger point therapy, I use slow, intentional movements to release tension and discomfort. My thorough technique and strong attention to detail ensures that no area is overlooked. During your intake session, I ask thoughtful questions and listen closely to identify the precise areas that require attention. My deep understanding of the body allows me to deliver effective, personalized treatments that facilitate healing and relaxation.
I’ve been a client of Kate’s for many years. As a bodyworker with 25 years of experience myself, I truly recognize skilled hands and the importance of presence in a session—and Kate checks all the boxes. Her work is thoughtful, intuitive, and consistently grounded in deep care. I highly recommend booking a session with her. You won’t be disappointed.
Kate is amazing. I have a busy work load and Kate is always accommodating when it comes to scheduling. Not only is she accommodating when it comes to fitting me into her schedule, she has been willing/able to give me massage later in the evenings which is so appreciated because during the day and early evenings I don't really have time for massage. Kate allowed me to bring my own essential oils for the massage. The aroma therapy element added to the massage was deeply relaxing and therapeutic. She even let me pick my own music! One time I picked out some Miles Davis that got a little too weird so we both decided to change it lol. Kate's touch is very intuitive. We talked about what I needed/expected from the session and what my sore points were, but she was also able to channel where certain muscles needed some extra work. My first massage was for an hour but I later go a 90 minute massage and for me the extra time is so beneficial. She was even able/willing to once give me a 75 minute massage! 90 minutes is the way to go though. Kate is an all around knowledgeable and cool person. She is easy to talk to and form a relationship with. This allows Kate to further understand your physical and emotional needs during the massage. And if you want deep tissue, she can certainly deliver. As someone who likes a deep and almost "painful massage", Kate matched and even exceeded my expectations.
Kate has a very warm, welcoming and impeccably clean space. I immediately feel relaxed and at ease when I'm in her presence. She's a very skilled massage therapist (and I'm picky) who is extremely knowledgeable and intuitive. I trust her completely and always leave our sessions feeling so much better and centered. I can't recommend her enough! -Tracey
Kate is an excellent masseuse who is also a delight to work with. She attends to my most compelling needs, with lasting results. My shoulders and neck feel so much more comfortable and relaxed for days following a massage. Very attentive to details and the need to keep herself and her clients safe. Highly recommend her!
This was my first time getting a massage, Kate made me feel very relaxed, From the warm table to the great massage I almost went to sleep, I felt very comfortable. I have had total knee replacement on both legs, 2 times on the left and now I have terrible pain in both legs, When she was done I felt better then I have in years. She is amazing I will definitely be going back, I Would highly recommend her. Thank you Kate for helping a man in pain feel better.
I have had many professional massages over the years and Kate gives one of the best I've ever gotten. She is warm and professional and listens attentively to what I want and don't want. Her massages are so relaxing that I regularly fall asleep on her table and leave feeling refreshed and well taken care of. Need a bit of self care? You can book your own appointment on her online calendar without having to play phone tag. Even the scheduling is relaxing!
I really appreciate Kate's attentiveness as a massage therapist. She's always checking in before, during, and after sessions to be sure that I'm getting what I need at any appointment. As an active person, I'm regularly putting my body to the test and Kate is great at putting a whole range of techniques to use to help me feel better and keep me going!
If you're needing some deep relaxation, come see Kate! As a new mom, I sure do. Kate provides some of the best body work I've ever received. Her table and space are warm and inviting. Kate listens well and might even follow-up with you by email with some stretching suggestions post-massage. I highly recommend!
