Kat's Background
Kathryn Calandra (Maruzo), LMT
Kat has been a licensed and insured massage therapist since August of 2014. She specializes in dysfunctions of the lower back, deep tissue, and the release of fascia through various techniques. She loves and values the benefits of ALL types of massage. During her massage career, she has taken classes to keep up on her knowledge of massage as well as other modalities. She is always dedicated to giving you the most relief possible while staying relaxed.
Kat has experience working in a professional spa providing the highest quality of services. She has carried this standard throughout the years and has worked in both corporate and private settings.
Only natural oils and lotions, that nourish the skin, without fragrance, preservatives, and harsh chemicals are used. If there is a fragrance, it is generally from essential oils. She will be sure to let you know if there is any fragrance in anything she uses that does not come from pure essential oils.
Kat is very much into getting to the root of what may be contributing to pain or dysfunction and is always looking out for your best benefit as she provides every service from a spirit of caring generosity.
Her Approach
Kat starts with a thorough intake and gets to know any previous injuries or traumas that have occured in the past. She then listens to your concerns and goals for each session and plans the session around reaching your goals and then some. As she works during the massage, she intuitively listens to the body and waits for its responses, as she skillfully and thoroughly works to your comfort to unlock stress and tension within the body, to provide the relief that sometimes not even you knew you needed. She is always striving to bring awareness, balance, and connection to the mind, body, and spirit to bring you to the highest state of relaxation possible.
