Kathryn A. Prinz is an experienced National Board Certified Reflexologist (ARCB) since 1998, a
New York State Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT), and a Nationally Certified Massage Therapist (NCBTMB).

In Kathryn’s own words, Reflexology and Massage Therapy help balance and release tension patterns held in your body. My Western anatomical knowledge, Eastern meridian studies, and intuitive skills guide me to gently target your specific musculature, reflex points, and meridians for your maximum benefit at each session. It is truly a joy and a privilege to assist clients with significant improvements in their quality of life through Reflexology and Massage Therapy.
