🌸 Modalities Used

Shiatsu (Japanese Meridian Therapy)

Shiatsu is a traditional Japanese healing art rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It uses rhythmic compression, tapotement, vibration, and assisted stretching to regulate ki (qi/chi) flow along the body’s meridians and acupoints. This technique helps relieve tension, improve circulation, and support nervous system balance.

Tui Na (Chinese Meridian Massage)

Tui Na is a therapeutic massage modality from China that works directly on the meridians to remove energetic blockages and restore qi flow. Kathleen was trained in the “Wind and Waters” style of Tui Na by Kathleen Davis and Brian O’Dea, which emphasizes fluid, intentional hand techniques to support healing on both structural and energetic levels.

5-Element Acupressure

Grounded in 5-Element Theory, this form of acupressure brings harmony between body, mind, and spirit. By gently accessing specific acupoints, this technique helps the body's internal climate re-balance — much like nature's elements in constant interaction. It’s especially effective for emotional processing, energetic realignment, and trauma-informed care.

Reflexology

Reflexology uses gentle pressure on specific points of the feet, hands, and ears that correspond to internal organs and body systems. It stimulates natural healing responses, supports detoxification, and complements other modalities beautifully.

Cupping (Optional Add-On)

Available upon request, cupping therapy uses gentle suction to promote blood flow, release fascia, and reduce deep muscular tension. Often used for back pain, stagnation, and detox support.

✨ A Session Tailored to You

Every session with Kathleen is a collaborative experience. Rather than following a fixed protocol, she draws intuitively from these techniques to support what is most needed in the moment — physically, emotionally, and energetically.
