Kathleen McEvoy has, quite simply, built a small empire with her bare hands. And once she has laid them upon you for an intensive therapeutic massage with the skills of her own special branding, she emerges as almost a mythic embodiment of healing. "There isn't anyone who can't benefit from massage" she explains with a wry smile. If what she unfailingly delivers to her enamored following could be placed in a bottle, it would be something akin to a precious elixir encompassing physical, mental, emotional and spiritual renewal. All in one shot. "Massage, at its most elemental level," she reflects "is a timeless and universal tool for healing."  And just as a flower needs sun and water to thrive and be well, so does the body need touch.

Massage is a sublime opportunity to stress-manage one's life and an actively peaceful solution for whatever else that might ail the body, while creating balance in the process. Through triggering the release of endorphins and promoting blood and lymph circulation, massage provides each person with an exquisitely refined sense of wholeness and well-being. The flushing and dissipation of lactic acid stimulated by deep-tissue massage also allows a free flow of energy along nerve pathways ultimately helping to prevent illness and promoting optimal health. Seldom recognized as an effective tool for elimination, massage has for centuries been known to be ideal in aiding digestion and excretion. The overwhelming aspects of the physical benefits alone, are astonishing and yet the remaining pervasive, positive effects of massage are even more magical.

The physical rejuvenation experienced through deep, holistic bodywork is readily identifiable: It helps one sleep better; it relaxes and calms; it energizes; the body feels more efficient, resilient and whole. Yet often, the ability that one possesses, through massage, to foster their own inner awareness cannot be comprehended until one has experienced deep, therapeutic massage for the very first time. Massage serves as a tremendous catalyst for personal growth, miraculously allowing one to comprehend something in a new way which seeing alone does not provide. It is giving oneself the gift of acknowledging or exploring what is happening emotionally and spiritually somewhere deep within and it is a safe and appropriate place in which to experience those strong feelings and energies. By facilitating this development of profound inner awareness through massage, one feels overwhelmingly reconnected with the truest most authentic self. It is the spiritual way through massage of emotionally opening a door or building a bridge that serves to make our existence more rewarding if it is utilized. Experiencing massage as an inextricable and invaluable part of our lives, it becomes as necessary and basic as regular exercise, wholesome food and daily nurturing self-care.

An expert masseuse, Kathleen McEvoy states without hesitation that "The key to a good, therapeutic deep-tissue massage is to touch every single muscle. For those who have never experienced it before, don't wait. Let go of your fears. The rewards are usually worth it." So if you fall into the category of neophyte at the threshold of your first therapeutic massage, prepare your mind, body and spirit for a truly remarkable experience; one you will never forget.
