“ As a massage therapist, I have received hundreds of sessions of bodywork from a variety of professionals. Cathy brings a superior presence, skill, and intuition to each of her sessions. She is thorough with her intake, ensuring that she understands the clients desire for the session, and she checks in throughout the work for comfort and responsiveness at an appropriate level. Cathy is personable, talented, and created a fantastic shift in my body of relaxation, tension release, and overall flow.”

“ Cathy is a very gifted and caring healer who listens, understands, and holds space for her clients. I am generally a very healthy person but have recently been sidelined by a virus with side effects of extreme fatigue and painfully swollen lymph nodes. I scheduled an appointment with Cathy for a lymphatic drainage massage with the hope of releasing blockages, increasing circulation of the lymphatic system and alleviating some of the pain. Within a few hours of the massage, my energy levels were significantly improved and the pain level had decreased.”
