Our service offerings include: Cryotherapy, Massage Therapy, Stretch Therapy, LED Red Light Therapy, Yoga, and a Tachyon Meditation Chamber. My name is Amber Kemp, I am a Licensed Massage Therapist, Life Coach, Reiki practitioner and Yoga instructor. After years of struggling with various health conditions and emotional turmoil, I turned to holistic therapies at the age of 17 when I attended my ve

ry first yoga class. In 2014, I ventured to Nepal in pursuit of authentic yoga training, and became a certified yoga instructor under the guidance of yoga masters from India. I integrate the healing touch of Reiki into my yoga and massage practice. As a teacher, I emphasize that every practice is YOUR personal practice and should be modified to suit the needs that your inner self is calling for. For me, yoga is not an activity, but a way of living. Massage, Reiki, and Yoga have shed light into the dark places within me, reassuring me that every fiber of my being, dark and light, is divine and perfectly imperfect. I initially became a Reiki practitioner in pursuit of an effective and sustainable health regimen that I could integrate into my life as well as the lives of those I love. Along the journey, I found that plus much more. Reiki works to cleanse, balance, and harmonize the mind, body, and soul. After having hands-on, personal experiences with the process and benefits Reiki has to offer, I arrived at the conclusion that I could not keep this "secret" to myself. The truth: Reiki is no secret and it is not something new. Reiki is a holistic healing technique that has been practiced for over 5,000 years. Scientists have since conducted many studies that have supported the benefits Reiki has on one's mind and body. HOW DOES REIKI WORK?? Reiki works to restore your body's natural healing abilities. For anyone who does not know how Reiki works and what a Reiki session entails, it can be compared to a massage. Both create a peaceful, relaxing, and meditative effect that immediately benefits your nervous system, reducing stress.The difference between Reiki and massage therapy is instead of the actual skin manipulation and "massaging" that works on the lymphatic system, Reiki practitioners lay their hands on, or right above, energy centers in the body and utilizes light energy to dissolve any blockages in the body. Another way to look at this is it's like cleaning out all of your internal pipes(organ systems) and releasing any emotional/mental blockages to create space and energy for RENEWAL. In addition, Reiki is great for anyone who is going to have surgery by speeding up the healing process. My main aspiration in life is to help others find health, happiness, and the feeling of being alive. Humanity is my passion. Alternative medicine and holistic healing modalities are becoming more and more accepted and adopted in the U.S, and it is my goal to be part of this movement by starting in my community.

Our Story

My name is Amber Kemp, I am a Licensed Massage Therapist, Reiki practitioner, and Yoga instructor. I am a big advocate of preventative therapies and self-care practices to maintain a healthy, happy, and balanced lifestyle. Our wealth is in our health, after all.:) After years of struggling with various health conditions growing up, I was introduced to holistic therapies at the age of 17 when I attended my very first yoga class. In 2014, I underwent an immersive yoga teacher training with Rishikul Yogshala in Pokhara, Nepal. I spent 30 days living with 29 people from all different countries, sharing the experience of a profound cleanse from the inside, out. Each day we ate three ayurvedic meals, practiced yoga for upwards of 4-5 hours, learned and practiced ancient cleansing practices, meditated, studied yogic philosophy, pranayama (breathing techniques), and learned anatomy & physiology in relation to yoga.

In 2015, I studied level one and two of Usui Reiki with different Reiki Masters and currently have held a level two certification since 2015. Since then, I have implemented and practiced the techniques, principles, and ethics of Reiki to deepen my experience, expertise, and flow of this beautiful form of energy work.

I felt led to expand my knowledge of the body, pain management, and sports performance and became a Licensed Massage Therapist from Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy in Newington, CT.

I now integrate everything I have learned into individually curated sessions with clients to offer the most effective and comprehensive bodywork. I am on the go, traveling to client's homes and offices for the ultimate convenience to fit into their busy schedules. My greatest fulfillment is felt when my client feels transformed in their mind and body by the end of each session.
