Cara Kowalski, LMT

Welcome to Cara Kowalski Massage Therapy! My goal is to provide you with a deeply relaxing and therapeutic massage experience tailored to your individual needs. I believe in a holistic approach to wellness, incorporating various techniques to alleviate tension, improve circulation, and restore balance in your body and mind.

My Background and Expertise

I have been a licensed massage therapist since 2000, working with clients to address a wide range of concerns. I have extensive experience in treating clients with:

• Migraine headaches: Repetitive tension, stress, and muscle imbalances can contribute to these debilitating headaches. I utilize specific techniques to relieve tension, improve circulation, and ease the pain of migraines.

• Pregnancy-related discomfort: From posture changes and swelling to joint pain, pregnancy can bring unique challenges. I offer gentle and effective prenatal massages to ease discomfort, promote relaxation, and support the health and well-being of both mothers and babies.

• Repetitive movement and work-related injuries: Repetitive motions, desk work, and physical labor can lead to muscle pain, stiffness, and pain. I utilize deep tissue and myofascial techniques to release tension, restore range of motion, and prevent future injuries.

• Chronic inflammatory diseases: Conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, and lupus can significantly impact mobility, flexibility, and quality of life. I offer customized massage therapy to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and improve overall well-being.

My Approach to Massage Therapy

My massages are a combination of Swedish and deep tissue techniques, tailored to each client's individual needs and preferences. I use varying depths of pressure and specific work to address muscle tension, restore flexibility, and relieve pain.

I also offer additional modalities like:

• Prenatal massage: Gentle, yet effective for mothers-to-be.
• Aromatherapy: Essential oils can be incorporated into your session to enhance relaxation and therapeutic benefits.
• Myofascial therapy: Techniques to release tension and restore balance to muscle and fascia (connective tissue).
• Energy work: Includes Reiki, craniosacral therapy, and healing touch - gentle techniques that promote deep relaxation and well-being.
