NKT, Laryngeal Massage/ TMJ, Lymphatic Drainage, Cupping, Reiki Kimberly is a Licensed Massage Therapist focusing on Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) and Laryngeal Manipulation (LM). She is a Level 3 NKT Practitioner and has unique training in Voice & Swallowing Disorders and TMJ Dysfunction using LM. She is equally skilled with Myofascial Lymphatic Treatment and Reiki. Being a private vocal instructor for over 20 years, Kimberly has witnessed how past injuries, surgeries (scars) and stress may cause dysfunction and/or chronic pain throughout the body. Often this may cause difficulty with speech and swallowing. With her training, she realized that she could not only help vocalists, but the general public as well. *Laryngeal Manipulation can provide therapeutic benefits for clients who may have muscle tension and/or a tired or hoarse voice. It aims to reduce tension and muscle imbalances in the diaphragm, throat and jaw and may increase blood flow and tissue healing. It is especially good for Muscle Tension Dysphonia (MTD), after a recent illness or before a performance or public speaking event.
