What people are saying about Katie

“I had the amazing fortune of stumbling across Katie Flaster, after searching high and low for a skillful body worker to collaborate with on my physical care. I had been to many different types of practitioners and after my first session with Katie, I never looked for anyone else to work with. Katie is professional and so down to earth and funny. She is intelligent and intuitive in her work. I am a physical therapist, and I find that Katie has wonderful hands on skill that allow her to be sensitive to the healing phases of the tissue she is working with. She is constantly seeking new information and techniques to help her clients, and she stands on a strong foundation of knowledge she has honed through many years of study across disciplines, and many hours with clients. If you are looking for a special, skillful and healing provider- look no further- you have found her.”

“I want to start by saying that Katie is an amazing bodyworker! It doesn’t take me long at all to completely relax into her grounded presence and hands. Before Katie worked on me, my entire back was tight and seizing up. My mobility was extremely limited. After just one session with Katie, I felt much needed relief. At that point I knew I had to schedule weekly appointments with her and I now look forward to each and every one as it has made a tremendous difference in my life! She asks really good questions and is a great listener, which is super important to me. She is one hundred percent present while working on me. It’s clear she’s one of those people that have found their life’s work in the healing arts as a bodyworker. She is professional, respectful, extremely conscientious and always on time. I feel so blessed to have found her. I’ll follow her anywhere!”

"Katie is highly intuitive, motivated and holds impeccable integrity and professionalism. I have been struggling with three herniated discs and nerve damage to my legs and ankles, affecting my whole body causing significant pain and spasms. During a flare up, she is the first person I call upon to help me through, and receive relief. By the end of a session with Katie, I’m freed from pain with a deep sense of wellbeing. Katie works with me, not on me, asking questions, listening, sharing her insights, and inviting me into the process of healing and release. Her approach is holistic, integrated and extremely effective. Words cannot express how grateful I am for her sharing her skills and generous spirit, for all the times that she has granted me relief and freedom from pain and tension, and for improving my quality of life and reestablishing faith in my body’s ability to heal."

“As a professional working for an International humanitarian organization and long time student of yoga practices in India, I can honestly say from my personal experience of sessions with Katie Flaster that she is a true professional with intuitive listening hands capable of connecting with the health and holism of a person. Her compassionate nature and innate ability to create a conducive environment for sustainable change in a person is unique in the expanding field of bodyworkers. Having worked extensively internationally in highly charged contexts and with a personal very physical practice of outdoor activities, I am quite selective as to whom I trust to help me bring my whole-self back to balance. Katie is without hesitation one of those precious individuals.”

“After years of nagging soft tissue issues, I started seeing Katie at Redwood Integrative. After a few sessions, I was starting to walk better and was definitely moving more functionally. After about 3 months, I can say I was pain free and remain that way.

Katie is extremely competent and the ultimate professional. She is a recovering lawyer, so you know she is super smart, which she taps to provide the best care for your body. You will find Katie 100% dependable, deeply caring, flexible, and, perhaps best of all, somebody you enjoy spending time with. She is definitely somebody you would want as your next door neighbor. Worth every penny!”

— Steve S.

"None of the bodywork I have received from the dozens of therapists and practitioners I have sought out for my back, neck, hip, shoulder and leg problems have been as effective in pain relief, or as long-lasting, as Katie's. Katie's skillful, compassionate, and confident touch has transformed my perception of what bodywork could accomplish. Taking a holistic approach, Katie addresses not only the symptoms, but also the root cause of the pain, focusing on realigning the body and releasing muscular tension. For this reason, Katie's bodywork not only provides immediate relief, it also sticks. She is a master in pain relief and returning the body structure to balance and I strongly recommend her to anyone lucky enough to find her."
