CENTERED BODYWORK- STRUCTURAL INTEGRATION, CRANIOSACRAL AND ORTHOPEDIC MASSAGE
Kali specializes in pain relief, posture improvement and injury recovery bodywork. While the mainstay of my practice is structural integration, craniosacral therapy and orthopedic bodywork, I draw on many different modalities to address your needs and goals.
I have over 20 years experience and 1900 hours of training, similar to a Masters degree level of training. I have completed orthopedic bodywork training to care for serious cases safely, as well as a structural integration certification to address complicated postural issues effectively. Additionally, I am trained in craniosacral therapy for nervous system and emotional issues.
While very physical in nature, my practice also holds an emotionally and spiritually healing element to it. Though I can help you along in your healing process, I hope you learn to heal your own body during our journey together.
I am a former gymnast and cyclist. I currently love doing ecstatic dance, qi gong, trail running, hiking, pilates, and yoga.
My studies and practice in organizing have given my a strong understanding of how to support clients, with cultural sensitivity, from many different backgrounds (veterans, low income, differently abled, LGBTQ, BIPOC, religious minorities).
I am licensed in several states, currently practicing in CA (license # 33014) under my legal name, Heather Young.
