Experiencing Her Work...
Enter an enchanting sunlit garden of bamboo and birdsong… There is a tranquil meditative quality of the East here… Waterfalls and flowers soothe the senses… Breezes evoke the tropics, and transport you to healing realms…
Scenic Lucas Valley, in Marin County, CA, is reputed to be the legendary road of Robert Frost's famed poem, "The Road Not Taken". Winding through majestic hills, native meadows, streams, redwoods and reservoirs, Lucas Valley is sunny and tropical by day, with cooling breezes from the ocean by evening.
Hawks and hummingbirds, coyotes and owls, abound in this magical place that feels a world apart. Yet the Center is just two minutes and 1.5 miles from the Highway 101 Lucas Valley exit in San Rafael, and 15 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge, with parking right outside the door.
You are greeted by a gracious courtyard meditation garden and the peaceful sounds of birdsong and breeze, waterfalls and windchimes. You are welcomed into a sunlit studio with floor to ceiling glass walls viewing beautiful gardens and eastern art.
Sessions are conducted comfortably clothed on a very comfortable, plush, heated, floor mattress, in the serene, soothing and uplifting atmosphere of a traditional dedicated Thai temple.
Unless there is a contraindication - Kimberly generally recommends that clients start session by relaxing on the Amethyst Infrared Healing Biomat for 1/2 hour, an FDA medical device, whose benefits are considered to include: deep penetrating warmth to improve circulation and cellular function, boost immune system, generate negative ions to soothe and relax the body, enhance mood and increase serotonin production, relieve pain and increase healing - all to prepare before session.
The rhythmic soothing moves and stretches of Thai massage open and deeply relax and refresh body, mind and spirit. Thai Massage is often described as like having Yoga done for you while you receive massage. You just relax and let another move your body on an amazing journey of revitalization.
"I trudged in - and floated out!" clients happily report. There is a distinctive quality of both aliveness and groundedness that results from the ancient, remarkable wisdom of this work. Read how others have described their experience in client testimonials.
In addition, sessions with Kimberly may provide the benefit of her holistic health background and energy skills - if clients wish her to offer specific lifestyle resources and recommendations where indicated to enhance results. Those wishing more in-depth consulting and coaching can explore her additional services in the Holistic Coaching and Other Healing Arts.
An initial session of 2 hours is recommended. Kimberly also offers beautiful Gift Certificates for any occasions. Please call for rates and seasonal special offers. Sliding scale fees are available where appropriate. Series of sessions purchased in advance provide both a special savings and encourage clients to take advantage of the progressive and cumulative benefits of Thai Massage - as sessions build upon each other, tone and strengthen energy pathways, and increase flexibility and range of motion.
Be assured that Thai Massage can benefit most any body in most any condition, from the very fit and flexible to the very unfit and inflexible! But if you have special needs or questions, please do not hesitate to call and discuss your situation in advance of booking a treatment. Although Thai Massage is normally an active and moving massage, where indicated, as in postoperative cases, sensitive areas or stretches can be omitted and a wonderful massage can still be provided through gentle rocking, acupressure and reflexology. To be safe, in case of potential sensitivity of pregnancy, Kimberly recommends Thai Massage is best avoided for the pregnant client.
Schedule availability varies - please call to select best option - morning to early afternoon appointments are often advised, to allow for more revitalizing therapeutic energy, and to enjoy the benefits throughout the rest of the day.
Sessions, especially initial, are recommended held at the Center for best benefit. After that, or if that is not possible, Kimberly can provide sessions on an outcall basis, for an additional fee. You can schedule couples, family or friends for multiple sessions at your location. You may book and host Kimberly for a day if you like, in your area for your local contacts, and receive a bonus savings on your session rate in thanks for your organizing group sessions.
