“A Gentle and Tailored Approach”

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Recently, I had a knee injury, so I consulted Kathleen for a craniosacral session (CST). I was in a fair amount of pain and weight-bearing was difficult; all of this made it impossible to work and it was necessary for me to take time off from work.

Ms. McGovern saw me for only one session and brought immediate relief. I had attended CST treatments previously and had some idea of what to expect, so I was especially pleased with the outcome. What was so impressive was the gentle, patient manner in which Ms. McGovern approached the session. She took time to listen to my body and understood exactly where to focus. And while I was not completely pain-free after the session, I was comfortable enough to resume work and finish out the school year.

“Tangible Progress Toward Relief”

Rating: 5 out of 5.

When I came into the session my body felt twisted, with numbness in my right shoulder and hand. My right shoulder and chest felt compressed and gooey. As the session progressed, I felt an opening or expansion through the middle of my upper body, like a large balloon was inflating  within. The therapist’s hands felt like magnets, assisting me to open and widen, to have more space. 

At the end of the session I had more mobility in my neck and cervical spine; my body felt straighter, no longer twisted, and overall more balanced and grounded. The numbness was not completely gone, but seemed to have left my shoulder and upper arm. I look forward to continuing this work with Kathleen.

“A Welcoming Healing Environment”

Rating: 5 out of 5.

I loved my session with Kathleen. From the moment I arrived, she was welcoming and able to hold space for my system and my needs. I appreciated her sharing what she was noticing in my body. I was able to fully relax, settle on the table and come into deep healing processes. I greatly appreciated her suggestions for additional things that would help me.  I look forward to working with her more in the future, and going deeper
