Kammaleathahh has a very gentle, intuitive and attentive feel when practicing Reiki. My experiences with her have been remarkably healing on many different levels. She draws down that life-force energy and beams it right to where it hurts even if you didn’t even know that it was hurting. You will leave her table ready to...

Attending the massage workshop was very beneficial and informative for my needs. I came in hoping to learn more preventive strategies and tips to assist me in maintaining my chronic back pain more effectively between massage sessions. I learned multiple tools and I am looking forward to utilizing these techniques at home.

Kammaleathahh’s workshop “Get the Kinks Out” is invaluable. I work with my hands and arms a lot (who doesn’t?) and hold a lot of tension and fatigue in these areas, as well as in my neck and shoulders. I learned simple massage techniques to administer to my own body to release muscle tightness and stress. ...

I love how Kammaleathahh listens to what I need from the massage and meets that need. Just thinking about it makes me want to call for another!

Kammaleathahh addresses the human body as an integrated unit, one that includes not only muscle and bone but also mind and spirit. In a massage, she is aware of how bodies change in only a couple of weeks and adjusts to those changes by adjusting her massage. She is a pleasure to be with and...

Kammaleathahh unlocked and helped me to release tension to the extent that I had a similar emotional release in my life, letting go of unnecessary worry and creating a healthier way of carrying myself, physically, mentally, and spiritually. I highly recommend her touch that was personalized to address my holistic health concerns.

The first massage I had with Kammaleathahh lasted one hour with the purpose of addressing my extreme neck and upper back tension. Kammaleathahh taught me in the first massage the links between the front of my chest and my back, something I had never realized before. By opening up and stretching muscles around my collar...

It’s important to support the work Kammaleathahh does to my body with some body work of my own – swimming, bike riding, and walking – and she in turn encourages these activities and expects her clients to stay attuned to their body’s needs and wants. As every smart massage therapist indeed should! I highly recommend...

I was dealing with a lot of pain in my neck, shoulders, arms, hands and hip. Kammaleathahh introduced me to deep massage. Within a short time the pain in my hip was gone and the pain in my neck, shoulders and hands was manageable. I highly recommend Kammaleathahh for her knowledge, technique and results.

Before finding Kammaleathahh, I had tried numerous treatments for what seemed to be chronic shoulder & hip pain. Kammaleathahh was the first to bring me sustained relief, especially with my shoulder. She is able to perform cupping & release techniques which significantly improved my results, increased joint flexibility & reduced pain.

My main problem was walking, standing, and numbness in my feet. I elected to try massage before I considered drugs and surgery. Kammaleathahh not only corrected my main problems, but relieved other complaints I had for years. I’m active again, and no longer a bent over shuffling Grandma! It was good fortune to have found Kammaleathahh.

I’m Kammaleathahh and I love to help people feel better.
My education emphasizes that the physical, cultural, social, and emotional elements find their way into our tissue, our neuromuscular system, effecting how we move, express, and hold ourselves in space. I began Sustainable Health Choices (SHC) with Miriam Biber in 2007, emphasizing the connection between the health of communities and individuals.
I graduated from Guilford College in 2005 with a B.A. in Anthropology and Peace and Conflict Studies. I became licensed in massage therapy in 2006.
I emphasize four main things in my practice:
1. Listening. Something I’ve observed can get lost in healthcare these days. I believe listening is an art, and this is what will ultimately always provide a solution and treatment plan. Listening is done with ears, eyes, heart, and hands.
2. I alleviate pain or imbalances, primarily in the soft tissue, in order to help an individual grow out of patterns that impede them physically, emotionally, or mentally. I use a variety of methods to create a customized treatment (myofascial release, acu-points, cupping, trigger point therapy, active engagement techniques, Reiki, and intuitive listening).
3. I teach preventive information to support people to live more independently, with greater knowledge of their bodies.
4. I offer compassionate support through massage to mothers and infants. I have received Doula training, and I feel grateful to have attended a number of births.
I focus on 12 myofasical lines of connection throughout the body. In terms of evaluating the pattern that is happening in your body, I work with these 12 lines and how your joints are positioned relative to each other so that I work smarter with what you present. I practice the kind of work that shows how the area that is screaming at you for attention (your shoulder, for instance) might not be the source of your discomfort. The pain in your shoulder could be from a shift in your hip or a tilt in your foot.
Since bodies change, the session will always be customized to YOU, in the present. You get the benefit of receiving undivided attention to what you would like help with in the session.
I have worked closely with acupuncturists at a primary health clinic (The Lotus Center) in North Carolina. This is where I was trained in cupping, a Chinese Medicine technique that is beneficial for pain relief and moving toxins out of soft tissue. I learned a lot about Yin/Yang theory, meridians, and various acupressure points. Overall Chinese medicine philosophy positively augmented the spiritual foundation I grew up with and influences my massage practice.
