A Little About Me
Hi, I'm Kate!
I'm so glad you're here!
If you had told me years ago that I'd leave my career as an elementary school teacher to become a massage therapist and Reiki practitioner, I would have never believed it. But sometimes life has a funny way of leading us exactly where we're meant to be.
My journey into the wellness world began a few years ago when I took my first Reiki class. What started as curiosity quickly became a passion, and before I knew it, I was heading down an entirely new career path.
Looking back, I realize that although my career changed, the heart behind what I do really hasn't. I've always loved helping people, making them feel comfortable, and creating a space where they feel supported.
Today, as a licensed massage therapist and Reiki Master Teacher, I get to do exactly that, just in a different way.
I opened Kate Mason Wellness in February 2022 with a simple vision: to create a peaceful, welcoming space where people could step away from the demands of everyday life and have a little time that's entirely their own.
One of my favorite things about this work is watching someone arrive carrying the weight of a busy day and leave looking and feeling a little lighter. There's something pretty special about being able to give someone permission to slow down, let their guard down, and simply be for a little while.
And here's something else you should know about me. I genuinely love getting to know my clients. I want you to feel comfortable enough to tell me what you need, whether that's a little extra attention to your shoulders, some quiet time to yourself, or a few minutes to chat before your session.
There's no one-size-fits-all approach here. Every session is thoughtfully tailored to the person on my table.
I'm also a lifelong student at heart. I love learning, exploring new approaches to wellness, and finding ways to bring what I've learned into my practice.
Above all, my hope is that when you visit Kate Mason Wellness, you feel welcomed, cared for, and completely at ease.
Am I the Right Therapist For You?
When it comes to massage and self-care, we're all looking for something a little different. And that's a good thing! Every therapist has their own style, approach, and areas of expertise.
Here's a little about mine.
My specialty is relaxation. I love creating peaceful, nurturing sessions that help you slow down, let go of everyday tension, and simply enjoy being taken care of.
If you're looking for Swedish relaxation massage, prenatal massage, Reiki, or a lovely combination of massage and energy work, you're in the right place.
On the other hand, if you're looking for deep tissue massage, sports massage, injury rehabilitation, or more targeted therapeutic work, I may not be your girl. And that's okay! I know some wonderful therapists with different specialties and am always happy to point you in the right direction.
At the end of the day, I want you to find the care that's right for YOU, even if that means it's not with me. ❤️
A Little More About Me (Beyond the Massage Table)
When I'm not working, you'll usually find me spending time with my husband, Mike, and our German Shepherd mix, Juno.
Mike and I have shared our lives with some pretty extraordinary dogs over the years. As a retired K9 police handler, Mike worked alongside two incredible partners, Walsh and Chance, who became beloved members of our family. We also had our sweet Mr. Deeds, who taught us that patience and unconditional love often come wrapped in four paws.
Although we've had to say goodbye to those three special souls, they'll always have a place in our hearts.
These days, Juno is running the show, and we're more than happy to let him think he's in charge. (Who am I kidding? He absolutely is!)
I also love traveling, spending time in nature, and continuing to explore all things wellness.
Life can be busy, messy, beautiful, and sometimes downright exhausting. I think that's why I believe so strongly in the importance of taking a little time for ourselves.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I look forward to getting to know you, too.
Kate xoxo
