Cathleen incorporates these talents into her approach to healing, which is very muscle specific, with a true gift for recognizing and targeting imbalances in the body. She works intuitively combining tissue manipulation with energy work to facilitate the alignment of spirit and body, movement recovery, and performance enhancement. Her philosophy incorporates a great deal of education for her clients on preventive medicine and pro-active lifestyles. Cathleen is nationally certified in therapeutic massage and bodywork. The spine of her practice includes Swedish, Deep tissue, and energy balancing.

PAULA BATTAGLIO
Paula began her journey as a healer 25 years ago when she met a wonderful shamanic healer who inspired her to learn more about energetic healing modalities. It completely transformed her life, and awakened a deep passion for supporting the healing, spiritual awakening and empowerment of others.

Her first area of study was Therapeutic Touch, an energetic modality used by many nurses to accelerate the healing of hospital patients. Her journey has continued with Healing Touch, Pranic Healing, Quantum Touch, Reiki, Nomena, and Healing Spectrums. She has studied with Billie Topa Tate at the Mystical Sciences Institute in Evanston, and is certified as a Master Space Clearer, Nomena Healer-Teacher, and is currently in a master Mystical Feng Shui Certification program. She has also studied Quantum Touch with Richard Gordon, Pranic Healing with Stephen Co, Healing Spectrums with Thomas Gates, and is a certified Reiki Master Teacher through Karen and Steve Mitchell.

At YogaNow, Paula offers Healing Spectrums treatments. Healing Spectrums is a very powerful modality. In these simple “non-touch” sessions, Paula is able to draw upon those spectrums that help enliven the body’s natural healing ability. The coherence created through these universal spectrums reduces the level of chaos in the affected areas and uncovers the presence of subtle physical anomalies or “artifacts” within the body.

As these artifacts are released, an enhanced process of healing begins through the increased coherence and integration of body and consciousness. This process also enlivens awareness along with a more expanded sense of perception and connectedness.

She also offers Reiki and Reikissage treatments.

KIMBERLY HOWELL
Kim Howell is a Reiki master. She started practicing in 2004 and completed her mastership training in October 2005. Previously she taught 5th/6th grade and did Reiki in her free time, but she is now excited to be offering treatments full time. Reiki brings healing and balance to the body, mind, and spirit. During treatments, Kim uses a light touch to channel universal healing energy to her clients. Reiki balances the chakras (energy centers), clears the aura, removes blockages and negativity, and helps to improve the flow of energy through the body. One client described her treatment as “a massage for the soul.”

As a musician, Kim also likes to incorporate relaxing music and sound healing into her treatments. She feels that music can directly reach the soul. Tuning forks of different frequencies are used to help balance their corresponding chakras.

Kim can focus on specific areas of the body where a client may be experiencing pain, or give a general treatment for the whole body to clear away stress and negativity that build up during our busy, everyday lives. The treatments are relaxing and painless. Each treatment is approximately one hour long.
