About Dr. Kyren Epperson
The Provider's Massage Therapist license no. is 227022781.
Kyren (they/them) practices Zen Shiatsu Bodywork, a traditional Japanese form of massage therapy. They specialize in supporting individuals facing chronic pain, insomnia, digestive challenges, and emotional overwhelm. With a deep understanding of the unique experiences of neurodivergent individuals, LGBTQIA+ communities, and trauma survivors, Kyren creates an inclusive and compassionate environment where everyone feels safe and valued.
In the practice of Zen Shiatsu, I apply just the right amount of pressure to support your body’s natural relaxation process. This method promotes healing by soothing the nervous system and enhancing circulation. Whether you prefer a light touch or deeper and firmer pressure, the focus of each session is entirely on supporting your body’s needs in the moment, ensuring you feel relaxed and empowered throughout the session.
Throughout each session, I sense and adapt to the needs of body in the present moment both in the amount of pressure and quality of touch–to craft the therapeutic experience that will best support the needs of the client in front of me. One session with the same client might be entirely different in pressure and quality of touch, informed by both the client’s goals and what I sense in the body.
My approach centers on helping you find true ease within your body, guiding you to unlock the relaxation and wellness that lies within.
At the heart of my practice lies a commitment to honoring your autonomy. Together, we’ll enhance your mind-body connection and explore your unique tension patterns. By gaining a deeper understanding of the relationship between your mental, emotional, and physical states, you’ll leave each session equipped with valuable insights and tools to continue your healing journey even beyond our time together.
