PRACTITIONERS

Danielle Reghi is originally from Hawaii.  Growing up on the beautiful island of Kauai she was introduced to natural medicine modalities as a way to maintain balanced health and wellness.  She was not introduced to the idea that someone could make a career out of the natural health and wellness field till she moved to Seattle Washington after college.  Working in the Hotel industry in Seattle she began giving her co workers tips on diet and stress relieving practices. She began to see the effect that small changes could make on the working professional, and how satisfying that could be to a person.

Dr. Tony Murray first encountered great relief from chiropractic care while working at a desk as an engineer.  Wanderlust led to three years teaching high school in Asia, after which he returned to Oregon to begin a new career with massage therapy and eventually as a doctor of chiropractic himself.  Tony’s background in mechanical engineering, massage, and energy work provide a well rounded course of care that will see you at multiple levels.  His outside interests include playing guitar, surfing, yoga, and getting outdoors regardless of the weather.

Known as Dr. Kate around the office, Kate is adjunct faculty at East West School of Massage where she teaches Pathology and Anatomy & Physiology. She is the co-owner of a local, herbal beverage company called Doctor Bird Elixirs. She also owns a Paleo Cookie delivery business called Morsel Code Cookie Co. Dr. Kate has special interest in nutrition, homeopathy, western/eastern herbalism, and essential oils. She believes optimal health is fostered by the tiny little rituals we carve out time for and practice on a daily basis.

Dr. Kate has a bachelor’s degree in communications and theater from Monmouth College in Monmouth, IL and worked in both corporate and broadcast television for 7 years before beginning medical school. In 2015, she graduated with a doctorate in Naturopathic medicine and a Master’s degree in acupuncture and Chinese herbalism from The National University of Natural medicine in Portland, Oregon.

For fun she likes to hike all around the PNW, bake cookies, run, do yoga, and drink embarrassingly expensive tea. Kate lives in NE Portland with her beloved housemates and elderly diva cat, Pekoe.

Bodywork is a blessing. I am blessed to develop my career in a field that is both mentally stimulating and healing. I have studied Deep Tissue, Structural Integration, Thai, Swedish Massage and Basic Cranial Sacral Techniques. Bodywork allows me to consistently learn and explore the body, an endless discovery. As I learn, I facilitate growth for my clients by connecting them to their own bodies. This will change a person’s overall daily function.  Nurturing and healing led me to my path of bodywork. At a young age I picked up informal, yet intuitive massage. This comfort with human touch helped me listen deeply to the physical body. I bring this intuitive approach to my current practice. I listen to the verbal needs of my clients, with close attention to body movement and non-verbal cues. This helps me cultivate a unique session, with fluidity from area to area for each individual. I truly look forward to working with each human.

“My goal is to create a treatment plan to help clients feel relief from pain or stagnation, experience a noticeable difference in their well being and to inhabit their body so that self care rituals like therapeutic whole-being bodywork is achievable and prioritized. I’m genuinely interested in your experience. The goal should be to feel better.”
