A Refined Approach to Healing
Enter a space where technique meets intuition, and healing becomes an art form.

More than a course, this is an experience of reconnection — to your hands, your awareness, and the subtle language of the body.

The Experience
Whether you are at the beginning of your journey or expanding an established practice, this training offers a sophisticated foundation in Body Gua Sha.
You will learn how to release deeply held tension, stimulate circulation, and support the body in returning to its natural state of balance and flow — physically, emotionally, and energetically.
Under the guidance of Katie Blake, each element of this work is approached with precision, presence, and care.
Body Gua Sha is seamlessly integrated with a curated blend of modalities, including acupressure, sound therapy, crystal work, massage, and energy-based practices.
The result is a treatment approach that is not only effective, but deeply sensory, restorative, and transformative.
An Intimate & Considered Environment
This training is intentionally held within a small, carefully curated group.
This allows for a high level of personal attention, ensuring each student is fully supported in developing their own distinctive way of working.
Katie works closely with you throughout the experience, guiding you to embody the practice in a way that feels authentic, intuitive, and refined.
