i cant recommend her enough! i love, love, love kate. and not just because she is a kind hearted woman, or and that she manages to be holistic without being too much of a hippie — which i wouldnt really mind, anyhow, but its cool that she is so balanced. she is incredibly talented, and in three years i think i have seen half the massage therapists in this city, so trust me when i say she is the best i have found. even after the first visit i was sold on her, but as it turns out, shes also fantastic with recurring and chronic issues. and although she is always interested in feedback, she needs none of it to do an amazing job; she has a true talent for deciphering what the body is doing, and my shoulder and back and neck(and everything else i frequently twist up) are impossibly better for seeing her on a regular basis. i debated for a long time about writing a review because, frankly, i dont want to share her. :) but she is amazing, and if anyone else is in as much pain as i frequently am, i hope theyre able to find their way to kate.
