Ula Katsoulis LMT CST is a licensed massage therapist specializing in CranioSacral Therapy and Visceral Manipulation. She studied massage therapy at the Swedish Institute in New York City, where she studied massage therapy, anatomy, apthology and neurology. She received her new York State licensure in massage Therapy in 2002.

Craniosacral Therapy is a light, non - invasive touch therapy that helps the body self -correct its restrictions via the Central Nervous System: it releases tensions deep within the body to relieve pain and dysfunction, and creates optimum health and performance. It is a safe effective therapy suitable for infants to elders.

Visceral Manipulation is a gentle form of manual therapy that focuses on the harmonious relationships between the motions of the organs and the structures of the body, having a balancing effect , so that the organs can move freely without getting abnormally stuck in the musculoskeletal system, creating tension, irritation and inflammation. It is a safe, effective therapy suitable for infants to elders.

Children respond very well to both of these modalities, as their nervous systems are developing, and they are able to assimilate the new input from the sessions easily, setting the stage for optimal wellbeing and growth as individuals. Ula employs these two cutting edge modalities with outstanding clincal results , and is a true believer in the body's ability to cure itself .
