Testimonials

Words from those
I've had the honor of working with

Kara exudes radiance in her presence. She is a gifted and intuitive healer with one of the most nurturing and positive natures I have encountered. She not only helps with nagging headaches and muscular pain — she also calms and soothes the nervous system, always leaving me better than she finds me.

Holly Davis Borrero, LMHC LMFT

It's a miracle how Kara has thousands of tiny ears in her fingertips — and the telepathic wisdom of the Ancients in her hands. I searched for 50 years to finally encounter a massage therapist who demonstrates having a clear channel from her heart to her hands.

Daniel Tucker

Kara is an amazingly gifted therapist. She has strong, learned hands and a kind, brave heart which she offers to connect into the body's wisdom and draw forth in the most soothing, mindful way.

Marko Schmitt, Marketing Director

She helps me reach within to tap into the wisdom my body holds — identifying what supports my well-being and what I can release. Kara is full of light and kind caring. I recommend her to everyone interested in well-being.

Renie Haiduk

Kara's treatments rejuvenate, de-stress and renew my spirit. Her essence inspires and gives me hope for humanity.

Gordon Meeks, NM Legislative Council

Trusting the body,
our home

"Our hands imbibe like roots, so I place them on what is beautiful in this world…" — St. Francis of Assisi

I completed 1000 hours of training in 2008 at The New Mexico Academy of Healing Arts in Santa Fe. In 2013, I received 200 hours of teacher training in Vinyasa Style Yoga. I also have training in the fundamentals of Western Herbalism.

Feeling at home in the body is a joy and a deeply rewarding experience. Bodywork can be a powerful therapy for connecting to our felt experience, relieving aches and pains, and addressing structural holding patterns that cause both physical and emotional pain.

Along with bodywork, I am a visual artist, dancer, cat parent, and avid plant lover. My offerings listen and honor the creativity and wisdom inherent in us all.
