About Us
Since 2002, I have been dedicated to providing professional bodywork grounded in kindness and respect for each person's unique expression of being in a body. My clients seek me out for pain relief, injury rehabilitation, increased mobility, body awareness, relaxation, and spiritual rejuvenation. I work together with my clients to make sure they leave feeling like they were heard and got the level of pressure and service they needed.
I love the work I do and consider it sacred work. I truly believe that when we are in tune with our bodies we have a better quality of life, are more in touch with our creativity and life purpose, and make choices that create better communities, better relationships with ourselves, each other, and the world we live in.

Visit me in my beautiful and peaceful studio in the Longfellow Offices in South Minneapolis. I'd love to work with you. Please reach out to see if I am accepting new clients.
Karen is kind, attentive, and skilled and a very good listener.
-Loved the new "TMI welcome here" sign, and definitely shared intimate details.
-KT spent extra time to get to know my health history (after checking that I had extra time)
This was a therapeutic and healing experience. Karen is so thoughtful and deeply cares about the work she does - you can feel it in the massage.
I appreciate the consent during the process and Karen continues to educate herself on healing modalities. I saw her for prenatal massage and she had invested in learning techniques that would support baby and me.
Karen! Seriously, a memorable session.
Karen's expert and caring touch are essential to my recovery.
Karen is the best massage therapist I have ever been treated by. I’m certain the HART method Mayan abdominal therapy sessions I had with her during pregnancy made my labor shorter and easier. I don’t ever want to get a massage from anyone else! Karen is the best! ????

I came in with body aches, and left feeling recharged and refreshed.
Karen is the BEST!!!
As always, Karen gave me an amazing massage. I was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia and she took the time to talk to me about my diagnosis and made sure to check in with me throughout the massage to make sure I was comfortable. I always leave her studio feeling relaxed and replenished. I would highly recommend Karen!
Karen is such a gifted healer and massage therapist! After the HART Method abdominal session I felt the best I've felt in months. I have struggled with lifelong IBS type of digestive issues and manage it with diet and other self-care. During my session, Karen used her skills to free up areas in my abdomen and diaphragm that were restricted and causing pain. I woke up the next morning with zero pain in my stomach, for the first time in a long time! Also, when I eat I don't feel extra full and bloated. It feels like my digestive organs are functioning better and I feel more energized. I actually enjoy eating for a change. I look forward to more work to continue this much needed level of healing of my body, mind and soul.
Karen is kind, attentive, and skilled and a very good listener.

-Hips felt so good and loose after H.A.R.T. session.
-KT got to every part of my body, even though abdomen was the focus of the session.
-Before working on more sensitive or imitate parts of my pelvis, KT checked to make sure I was comfortable with her touching them.

Karen helped flip my breech baby at 36 weeks, and helped spin my persistently OP baby to OA. Karen and the HART method are both incredible!

Karen is an excellent massage therapist and my experience with her H.A.R.T. Method technique was outstanding. I felt so much clearer in my core even days after the session. She also send me follow-up self-care and taught me methods of practice on my own at home. This was a great experience and I cannot recommend it enough.

I love how attentive and studied she is. I appreciate that when she notices a need in my body that she asks if I’m open to different treatments such as cupping and she adds it to her flow. As a fellow healer, I’m so grateful for Karen and to know that she’s healing other healers is testimony to her incredible work and gifts.

Karen has been my massage therapist of choice for several years, now. Not only is she adept at understanding what my muscles and body need, she is also incredibly intuitive at meeting me wherever I am in my healing process. Working with Karen (as her philosophy is that all healing is self-healing, and she is here to assist in that work) has been nothing short of miraculous for me. I have been able to heal what Western Med doctors have told me are chronic, permanent illnesses (Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia) with her help, and with the help of other alternative caregivers. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
