Client Testimonials

Debbie Lunnon, Mindful Wellness

“Kim is an incredible body worker! In the last 5 years I’ve gone to her with a wide variety of injuries. With her training, experience and wisdom, she always knows how to realign the body so that it can heal and function as it should. In addition to her advanced skills as a rolfer and massage therapist, Kim is compassionate, intuitive and kind. When I’m in her hands I feel safe and can completely relax. I always leave feeling calm and have a heightened awareness of my physical movement and how I’m feeling in my body. Kim’s work is a gift…physically, emotionally and spiritually.”

E. Verdill

“My dentist suggested I see Kim for TMJ/Craniosacral treatment. Thank goodness he did. Kim’s skill and care has been the basis for the huge improvements since then. Kim has been continually supportive and selflessly directed me to other options for the best possible resolutions. Time is well spent at this calm and cheerful oasis.”

Callie Rennison

“I recently had major surgery on both feet and during recovery I’d started walking in an odd manner to compensate. Though I’d always been pigeon-toed, my post-surgery walking had taken being pigeon-toed to a severe level. Like so many, I’d heard that Rolfing was painful and I was skeptical that anyone could do anything the way I walked. Turns out I could not have been more wrong. Kim not only completely removes my pigeon-toed-ness (an unbelievable feat) in just a few sessions, every session was filled with pure pleasure – there was never any pain or discomfort. I now am a huge proponent of Rolfing, and the biggest fan of Kim. I’m so glad I put aside my skepticism since the work she did has proved life changing.”

Tricia Audet

“Regular massages are a part of my life and when my massage therapist took a leave of absence, I searched for someone to fill that void. Over a two year period, I made appointments with various massage therapists without finding the right therapist for me. Upon meeting Kim, I immediately felt her intensity and connection. And after my first massage, I knew my search was over. More than a year later filled with monthly massage and Rolfing, I can attest that Kim is a superb body-mind mechanic.

Her strong, intuitive touch and gentle nature make a powerful combination. I feel extraordinarily fortunate to know Kim and would recommend her highly.”

Ted Mallon

“Kim knows my body better than I do and with deep knowledge and loving gentle skills re-aligns me each time I see her. She has guided me from a life of extensive pain and low physical functioning to one of minimal pain and substantial energy.

My life and future are so blessed by knowing Kim.”

Sharon Prager-Wortham, Custom Made Fitness LLC

“I started seeing Kim about a year ago for several issues including my neck and back. Kim takes the time to listen to you and creates a program based on what issues you are having at the time. I feel so much better after a session with Kim. Kim is professional and makes you feel comfortable. I would recommend Kim to anyone!”

Theresa Smith, Roots A Hair Studio

“Kim has been my therapist for at least the last 10 years. Her intuitive touch has helped me through many injuries (motor vehicle accidents). I highly recommend her.”

Sheela & Jim

“I have been going to Kim religiously for the last 8 years. She is the most knowledgeable massage therapist I have ever been to. Her understanding of the human body and how each system works together is amazing. I have referred her to many friends and co-workers. My husband is also a patron. I can’t say enough good things about Kim!”

Nancy G.

“Kim Hourston is simply the best massage therapist I have ever experienced. She sets a mood of calmness and serenity in her treatment room and then goes to work. If you have an area that is bothering you Kim has the intuitive sense to know whether to be gentle or firm with that area. She truly has a healing touch. After one of her treatments I always feel as though I have entered a different dimension, one where the world has quieted down and there is a profound peacefulness deep inside me.”

Kathy Wilbur, Mary Kay

“I am thrilled to recommend Kim Hourston.  I have been treated by Kim on several occasions for upper back tension due to stress.  The stress affected my posture and was compounding the problem.  I love the fact that Kim is a listening caring practitioner.  She has given me some suggestions that I use for treating a stressed back at home.  Most of all I love the fact that I leave Kim feeling 100% better and it’s not a temporary fix I am better for months.  Because of Kim’s coaching I am more conscious of my posture and work on my own to improve it.  I would most certainly recommend Kim and feel very confident in doing so.  Before meeting Kim I
was skeptical of Rolfers but not any more.  Kim has proved to me that there are other ways to treat pain and discomfort than pills and heating pads.”

Hal Paris, Certified Advanced Rolfer

“I have been a Rolfer for 33 years. Kim is my Rolfer!”

Bee Sturgis, Bee Sturgis Design LLC

“I first saw Kim on a referral from my chiropractor, Dr. Paul Bivrell. I have had Rolfing for over 20 years and was in need of a certified practitioner in my area. I was immediately impressed with Kim and her expertise. She combines the very best of Rolfing techniques and massage techniques. She listens to what you say about your body, and she observes how your body speaks to her through your movements. Her touch is strong and gentle at the same time.

I have on-going muscular issues. I see Kim each month to control these issues, and because of my monthly treatments with Kim I have not had a serious migraine or debilitating muscle pain in over a year.  I enjoy the whole experience I have with Kim, her sense of humor, her gentleness, her experience and intuition with Visceral Manipulation. I would highly recommend Kim to anyone who wants to live a more pain-free life!”

Mary Heidbreir, MLJ Insurance Services

“I believe I have been helped by Kim in all of her bodywork specialties throughout the last 7 years. My husband & I have both received relief from numerous muscle related pain, injuries including but not limited to: TMJ; Bursitis; Severe Tendonitis; Tingling; IT Band Injury; Low Back Pain. In addition her cranial sessions are heavenly, truly an experience that helps one relax. I constantly tell anyone I can how much they would benefit from her “handywork”.”
