Kim is a Certified Massage Therapist, is the founder and owner of The Art of Massage. As a former registered nurse of 7 years, Kim decided to pursue a career in massage therapy by attending the Baltimore School of Massage in 2000. She has discovered her art form that began as a mobile massage practitioner while leading her to gain experience working for other independent practices, to eventually set up shop in a warm and inviting studio in Merrifield. An active member of the Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals, Kim values spiritual development, writing, mountain biking, great hikes, and spending time with her wife and step-kids. She greets her life by infusing every day with some form of fun and adventure!
Everyday I wake up I thank my lucky stars that I get to do what I do for a living. I am grateful and honored that people have invited me into their lives to be a part of their healing and wellness journey. There are those that would contend that my elbow dropped deep into their tender tissue is really coming from a loving place! Truly it is all in the name of healing. Since earning my initial certification and following up with hundreds of hours invested in additional relevant studies, I meet people where they are and commit to being a healthy loving presence for them.

Kim asks questions about pressure, etc. before starting your massage and is extremely thoughtful and intuitive. Her space is warm and inviting and the heated massage bed on a cool day is luxurious. I didn’t want to leave. Kim is amazing. Highly recommend!

Kim is personal without being intrusive. She respects the privacy and dignity of each of her clients, while also radiating warmth and friendship if the client is open to that. Excellent massage and excellent engagement with someone who cares: win-win.

Loved the magnet from the Prado!! "The Garden of Earthly Delights." Like a reflexology appointment with Terri! And her "Tales of the Camino" - it's great to have a therapist who is also a friend doing amazing things so that I can experience them through her. And - she doesn't mind my distorted horrible feet - no judgment, just relief. What's not to love???

Terri is excellent at reflexology. I have experienced it twice before with others and she is my favorite. She is very skilled and knowledgeable. I felt totally relaxed when she finished. Working through the meridians of the body helps to clear energy blocks which leads to better health. I have felt great since having her work on me. I highly recommend her!

Terri was so friendly and very talented, she explained what she was doing and really helped understand reflexology.

My first experience was AMAZING. Terri was very welcoming, courteous, respectful and helpful. You always know someone, even if it is for the first time, who has experience and professionalism. She was asking my problem, explained the direction to solve my problem and all that done gently. Thanks again Terri!
