Karin is a graduate of the 2200 hour Massage Therapy program at Vicars School of Massage Therapy and has been practicing massage therapy in spa and clinic environments since 2017. A lifelong participation in athletics exposed Karin to the benefits of sports massage. Kinetic, orthopedic, and TMJD massage form a large part of her massage practice.
Karin draws upon all of her experiences and modalities to craft a personalized treatment to support each client exactly where they are. All of the modalities she uses have ancient roots. She draws upon the wisdom of the ancients to weave together many tools to address and support the whole person.
In 2019 Karin studied Somatic Stress Release (with Dr. Scott Lyons) to address trauma stored in the body. In 2023 Karin pursued training in Spinal Flow® Technique, Maya Abdominal Massage (with Dr. Rosita Arvigo) as well as a Hakomi Introductory Workshop on a Somatic Approach to Working with Trauma. All of her modalities facilitate the release of trauma in a safe and informed manner.
