About Karen Roberts:
State and Nationally Certified Massage Therapist(C.M.T.)
Certified Trager® Practitioner since 1989
B.A. Yale University
“I
learned the value of receiving bodywork after suffering
injuries in an accident and became a massage therapist in
order to help others release their pain and heal. Since
1990, I have explored a wide variety of healing practices
and become expert in combining specific approaches to meet
the needs of my clients.
If your body’s energy is blocked due to injury, disease or
stress, it has difficulty rebuilding itself. When we
release those energy blockages, the improved energy flow
makes it possible for your body to heal itself.
Deep relaxation is the first step to creating energy and
vibrant health. Learning how to activate your
parasympathetic nervous system, getting adequate rest and
proper nutrition will continue the healing process.
I look forward to working with you to improve the way your
body feels and works.” |
