Thai Yoga Bodywork

Thai Yoga originates in Thailand and features assisted stretches, joint mobilization and acupressure integrated from Chinese and Ayurvedic Medicine. The rocking motion that often accompanies the strokes has a soothing effect on the nervous system and helps the body restore its energy.

Cupping (IASTM)

Cupping is a form of Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation (IASTM) that has been used in various cultures for centuries. I use Silicone Cups to create a vacuum that pulls soft tissue away from underlying structures, helping release myofascial restrictions and increasing local circulation to support tissue health. Typical massage adds pressure onto tissues, which may be counter-productive in areas where tissues are particularly dense or tight already. The effect of the decompression/negative pressure created by the cup can be very therapeutic. Temporary painless marks resembling bruises will sometimes appear after cupping therapy. These are due to the unlocking of stagnant blood/fluid and typically disappear within a week post-treatment.

I had a wonderful experience getting a massage by Kathy. Despite getting there completely stressed, she was very kind, helped to calm me down, and gave an excellent massage. I plan on coming back!

Fortunate I am to have had many professional massages of diverse schools in many countries. In my estimation Kathy is an intuitive accomplished professional i.e. top of the charts.

Kathy has comprehensive knowledge of anatomy and as a result her massages feel (and are) truly healing and restorative.

It was my first lymphatic massage and I felt SO MUCH LIGHTER the evening after the massage. My legs especially, it felt like lactic acid was released from all over and I’m amazed that a massage can do all that, thank you!!!

Extremely knowledgeable and responsive. Relief from my nagging hip pain after even the first session.

Treat your body to the skilled hands of Kathy P. The entire space has a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. Her use of hot towels at various points is an exclamation point to the massage.

I have new pains, but I trust this shows progress.

I went to many different massage therapists and Kathy is the best. I have been coming to her for about a year. She is professional and I appreciate that she checks in with me throughout the session. She is kind and friendly. It is great to have a familiar face that I feel comfortable with.
