~ Welcome ~

My name is Kathy and I have been an Occupational Therapist for over 37 years. I’ve also been a John Barnes,PT-trained Myofascial Release practitioner for over 15 years (Expert Level). This incredible work is wonderful for both acute and chronic pain relief, stress/anxiety, trauma release, physical enhancement/performance, mind-body connection, and clarity. Dramatic shifts are often felt in just a single session.

I see clients from birth to end of life. Along with offering treatments in my Ventura-based treatment room, I also offer home-based visits for those receiving palliative/hospice care.

Please call or text for more information and/or to schedule an appointment.

* I just came back from attending “Pelvic Girdle/Low Back” class (16 hours). No matter how many years I do this work there’s always more to learn! For almost every client I see who comes to me with physical pain symptoms, I work on balancing their pelvis first. Our 2nd sacral segment is our balance point of our body. So if it’s not balanced, how could we expect above or below to be balanced? It’s like pouring a crooked foundation for your house and expecting the windows to close properly 🤔…..you can keep buying different windows, but they won’t close properly until the foundation is balanced. This is often the basis for symptoms such as plantar fasciitis (“below”), and headaches or TMJ (“above”), for example.

Here’s a quick and educational video of John Barnes explaining the twisted pelvis 🤪
