Karen Henery

On-site chair massage for your event.

I am a Licensed Massage Therapist, Certified Medical QiGong Therapist, and Certified Hatha Yoga Instructor. I have training in coaching, pre-crisis, and crisis interventions for mental health support. I am also a graduate of the CCAC Culinary Arts Associates Degree program with additional experience with vegan, vegetarian, and allergen-friendly cooking and nutrition.

After nearly a decade of corporate desk work as a project manager and event planner, I achieved massage therapy licensure in 2016 to build a better, healthier work-life balance. My massage training was with the advanced health care provider massage therapy program at the Community College of Allegheny County. At the same time, I received training under Dr. Ted Cibik as a Medical Qi Gong Therapist, a modality that I incorporates into my assessment and treatment of every client.

With an overall intuitive approach to massage therapy, each client receives a personalized session every time. Yes - even with chair massage!

Techniques I may incorporate include Swedish, Deep Tissue, Shiatsu, Acupressure, Tui Na, Medical QiGong Therapy, Lomi Lomi, stretching, myofascial therapy, and lymphatic drainage.

Additionally, my in-depth training as a peer specialist for mental health aides my trauma-informed practice by allowing me to hold space with clients who are facing difficult discussions and crisis.

I have provided chair massage at hotels, parties, conferences, corporate training events and celebrations, healthcare facilities, public schools, private schools, and more.
