"Being a competitive runner for over 20 years, I have worked with many different practitioners in order to maintain the level of training needed during these years. After no longer competing yet still wanting to remain active and enjoy other activities I realized I still needed to work with these types of individuals. I met Rachel at Core Kinetics where I had been a Pilates instructor before retiring. When I learned of Rachel's training in NKT, among her other skills, I decided to work with her. Rachel has done an amazing job in peeling back the layers of not only overuse, but compensatory patterns I have developed over the years of running. She has a unique gift in being able to read her clients, both on an emotional and physical level. Rachel has truly helped me unravel so many different problems and I feel extremely blessed to have her helping me continue to do the activities I love. Thank you, Rachel!" --Sandi H, Bellingham, WA
"I have been using massage therapy for over 25 years to deal with a series of sport related injuries. After my first massage with Rachel I quickly realized that she is both knowledgeable and experienced. She just seems to have a natural intuition about the issues my body is experiencing at that time. All of this and her calming presence really makes for an enjoyable experience. It is because of massage therapists like Rachel that I am able to continue hiking and snowboarding. Thank you, Rachel." -- L. Vance Bellingham, WA
"After close to 10 years of regular monthly massage, I met Rachel. After a mere five sessions I experienced improvement in a few areas that had not been achieved in all those prior years of therapy.
I believe what Rachel brings to her practice is, above all, a deep caring for her clients along with an even deeper innate wisdom on how best to approach each individual’s needs. She brings the client into the process which allows her the means of finding the best strategy for that person. Rachel left our area soon after our sessions and so my ongoing search will be to find someone as gifted as Rachel in bodywork.
