Welcome to Rise Up! <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I invite you to embark on a profound journey of self-discovery and growth through the transformative practice of Somatic Coaching & Bodywork. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through Somatic Coaching, we explore the intricate relationship of our inner and outer worlds~ the head and the heart, the body and the spirit, the physical body and it’s expression in this world and our deepest longings as a human. We bring awareness to our bodily patterns, sensations, movements, and breath, and use them as gateways to transformative change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Somatics is a discipline that recognizes that our physical experiences and postures are intimately linked to our inner experience. Our SOMA is the entirety of self, this vivid inner world that is outwardly expressed through our living bodies, shaped by all of the sensations, emotions, the narratives dwelling within us. Working with Somatics brings you into your body in new ways: becoming aware of the subtle messages and not just the loud ones like: PAIN! OW! PANIC! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Somatic Coaching & Bodywork, we learn how to notice patterns, messages and truths that our body holds, we find space for befriending the intelligence of the body, and then we learn how to shift towards what makes sense for us now. We practice new ways of acting and reacting, being in your body and your world in a way that allows you to chose connection, greater choice and you feeling more like the YOU that delights you, lights you up and then lights up everyone around you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We help you to cultivate a grounded presence, nurture your confidence, and deeply connect to your compassion for yourself in the process. This is the powerful Jedi stuff that can be hard to put a finger on. When you bring these transformative shifts into the body and practice this greater awareness of what’s happening, it can truly change how you experience everything around you.

“Of all the massages I have received in my life, this has to be one of the best massages, if not my favorite.”<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

Katy has strong, intuitive hands that worked all of the sore spots in my back. Katy also has a kind and warm demeanor, and she gave me a couple of stretches to do at home as well as wrote down the names of several books for me to reference later. I am looking forward to my next massage with her.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Solid sleep at last!”<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

I had been suffering from a headache for 2 weeks. I went in for an hour massage with a focus on my neck and upper back. I have been sleeping solid and feeling refreshed after my deep massage. I really appreciate the relief and am pleased to become a “regular” – you will be seeing me soon! Thank you SO much!<\/em><\/p>\n

“Katy is a very intuitive and present massage therapist.”<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

My experience in her work (over the last few years) has always brought a profound sense of relaxation without compromising depth and specificity. She has a graceful way of incorporating deep tissue and Swedish techniques that leave me feeling light and aware in my body. As a massage therapist myself, I look to Katy for both inspiration and tension relief in my body so that I can continue this blessed work. I have much appreciation and respect for Katy and her bodywork. As I have done in the past, I will continue in the future to recommend Katy for an excellent massage.<\/em><\/p>\n
