"Kathi is awesome, she has helped me with an injury I've been suffering with for years. I was living with my pain until Kathi treated me and I'm pain free. For want of a better word I feel so much lighter and I can't thank Kathi enough. She has given me exercises to do and they have helped tremendously. I would really recommend Kathi, she's kind and patient and really knows how your body works and would help you the most."
"Very knowledgeable and kind. Kathi really helped me figure out where my neck and shoulder pain was coming from. She helped me solve it, with treatment and some simple exercises. As a bonus, the free online Yoga and Tai chi course is really nice to do and helps me with my stress. Highly recommend."
Kathi is fantastic - so skilled and knowledgeable. Her treatment has sorted out my post pregnancy lower back pain to an extent that I really didn't think was possible. I am very grateful and would definitely recommend."
"Professional atmosphere. Knows what she is doing. Every session is a blast."
"I have been with Kathy for quite a while and she has drastically improved the way my body feels and can move. Taking it at whatever pace I want."
"Kathi has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the human body. This, combined with empathy and wisdom, makes her a great healer"
"Kathi is awesome! She's been instrumental in helping me through several sports-related injuries, not only effectively aiding in my recovery, but also infusing each session with positivity. She's like a ray of sunshine! I highly recommend working with Kathi for anyone needing expert help and a positive atmosphere in their recovery journey."
"Saw Kathrine and wow... absolute miracle worker. Very knowledgeable and is fantastic overall. Definitely one to keep in mind or when you have an injury or something doesn't feel right with your body."

"I am so relieved to have found Kathrin. Her knowledge and skill are excellent. I have found that my pain has been immediately relieved and I also have gained knowledge on how to prevent the same thing happening again."
Since I have been practising this stick exercise, my shoulder has been pain-free. I am fascinated by the great healing effect of this exercise and also very grateful for the great series of exercises that are available to us
~S.S
Level one, number one this morning plus first extension, my back feels better already.
~A.N.
I have never done Kai Men with a stick before. It was very interesting. Kathi instructed the exercises clearly and comprehensibly and it was very interesting to feel how the body deals with the restriction of the stick. The hips had to open up more (...). An enriching experience
~G.L.
Translated: Amazing breathing and movement sequences with the stick. They are simple yet challenging at the same time. They tremendously increase body awareness. I am glad to have done the course.
~H.H.
Dear Kati, working with you is simply mindblowing. I am so grateful to be part of this group and getting to experience new sensationel body feelings with your help.
~K.F.
(...) definitely loosened my poor always-tight-back-muscles
~V.B.
Nice selection of exercises, at each level.
~N.B.
"I was lucky enough to be able to assist Kathi on a training course when she helped a course participant who had a hip injury. The participant could no longer sit, lie down or stand without experiencing severe pain. (...) These explanations demonstrated profound knowledge and made it clear that Kathi, that unlike all the therapists I know, does not treat the symptom, but rather finds the cause and starts there."
"I had a session with Kathrin to get input to improve body alignment and performance in my running and Tai chi (and generally). Kathrin was very thorough in her assessment and questions, and clearly has a deep knowledge of how the body works and what to do to address issues. She gave me practical suggestions and exercises and explained these clearly, giving me a chance to try them out in the session and make some notes. I highly recommend a session with Kathrin, as well as having expert knowledge she is approachable and kind and explains things in an understandable way."

Free yourself from pain and feel yourself again - Read on for some simple steps to get you going
1. Breathing and Stress Relief
Check your breathing. When you catch yourself shallow breathing (into your upper chest) or even holding your breath, take a minute to reset and breathe more deeply, both in and out. 1. Get out of your head and into your heart and chest. Visualize the air swirling around your heart with every breath. Once your mind is connected to your heart follow step 2.
2. Put your hands onto your sides and breathe into your hands. Expand like a barrel when you breathe in – into your stomach, sides and a little into your back, Breathe in nice and smoothly for about 6 seconds, then breathe out for 6 seconds, nice and relaxed. Use as little force and tension as you can.
3. Once more settled, do some Square breathing for a few minutes. Simply hold your breath for 3-5 seconds after each in-and outbreath. Each in and outbreath should last around 5 seconds.
Feel calmer and refreshed after this mind and breathing reset.

2. Full Body Movement
Give your lower body a job while sitting. Every now and again pay attention to your feet and breathing even while sitting. Distribute your weight evenly into your feet and breathe gently into your abdomen. Ensure you fully breathe out.
Initiate movement from the feet and pelvis even when you are doing simple things like reaching for a pen or your favourite mug. This keeps your body as connected as possible. Small consistent changes can go a long way.
Try to frequently adapt your movement and position in everyday life, rather than remaining in one position for a long time.
Interrupt long sitting sessions with movement and breathing every 20 -30 minutes. It has been shown that it is an effective way to lower stress, blood sugar and increase concentration.
3. Don't practice having pain!
Overthinkers, perfectionists, workaholics and our anxious one's out there - this one is especially for you!
Repetition makes permanent! What you repeatedly think, is what you will become good at thinking at doing.
Constantly thinking about your pain? Guess what, you just reminded your brain to pay attention to your pain.
Anticipating pain before you move? And you just made yourself more sensitive to feeling pain.
1st rule of pain is - we don't talk about pain - or at least as little as necessary.
Make a conscious choice of distracting yourself.
Be sensible of course, don't push past limits that will trigger pain (that's practice again).
