I blend therapeutic massage & energy work to support your body's innate knowledge of what it needs to be healthy.

I see clients with chronic & acute conditions of pain & discomfort, as well as past trauma, depression, anxiety & low vitality. My practice is an ever-evolving meditation and I am so grateful to offer it to our Nashville community. Massage therapy found and claimed me nine years ago and its presence in my life changed the way I engage with the world physically and mentally. At its heart, my practice is a blend of therapeutic massage and energy work that supports your body's innate knowledge of what it needs to be healthy. I have a deep understanding of anatomy that I draw upon in each session. I strive to listen to your body as it communicates what it needs to find balance and ease. I see clients with chronic and acute conditions of pain and discomfort, as well as past trauma, depression, anxiety, and low vitality.

**Licensed in both Tennessee and New York State, Katie began practicing massage 9 years ago in New York City, studying SourcePoint Therapy® with Bob Schrei and Donna Thomson, visceral manipulation with Liz Gaggini and Alyssa Dodson, bodywork techniques with George Russell of Getting Better Bodywork and David Lobenstine of Full Breath Massage, as well as an array of continuing education classes focusing on the healing properties of the breath and the use of imagery in healing our minds and our bodies. She is a member of Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals and a graduate of The Swedish Institute College of Health and Sciences in Manhattan. She moved with her husband and son to Nashville in 2018. In addition to this work, Katie leads child-led nature play classes, called Tinkergarten, at Shelby Bottoms Greenway and Nature Center.**

Think about most days. You work too much, you don’t sleep enough, or maybe your body is changing because you are pregnant or just gave birth. You worry about being late, or your job, or your family. You are on your feet all day, or you sit in front of a computer for long periods of time. Our culture promotes the importance of pushing through pain, letting your stress fuel you, and bragging about your over-committed schedule instead of taking the time to actually listen to what your body is telling you. I encourage my clients to choose a different path: To maintain a healthy communication with their bodies through massage. To listen, to acknowledge, to create space for positive change. I strive to demonstrate this through our work together on the massage table.

I turned 45 yesterday, on the winter solstice! Honestly, I feel such tenderness for this act of becoming. On the solstice, there is a seed of light blossoming on the darkest night... becoming!

It’s easy to get pulled into the past and think about what has happened. It’s easy to think into the future, to rest my attention on what I aspire to and hope for.

But if I can just be with what is, right now, I feel so held. Held by the breath, and by this network of being that we are all a part of. Held in becoming.

What a relief! To be held, right here, as we are.
Resting in the moment, amidst the backdrop of this chaotic world. The loss, the love, the ugliness, the friendship, the grief, the joy - we can’t escape any of it! All of that is always present.

I know you all think that I am the one doing all of the holding in my practice, but it doesn’t feel that way! When you come to receive a session, or to a group gathering, meditation, or SourcePoint Therapy training, we are all being held in the greater harmony of universal energy. And as we are held, our bodies, minds, and spirits experience more ease. We embody a fuller expression of health.

I am immensely grateful for everyone and everything that has held me this year.

If you’d like to come in for a session, I am currently booking into January. We have a lovely morning of meditation on New Year’s Eve for you to join, too.

With love,
Katie

Hi everyone!

I’d like to open the studio for us on the morning of New Year’s Eve, Wednesday, December 31, for a morning meditation and community gathering from 10:00 am to 11:15 am.

We did this last year, and it felt very appropriate, aligning with these energies of Order, Balance, Harmony, and Flow, and letting their intentions support us as the calendar year changes.

The theme of our time together will be “Coming into Focus.” In today’s world, we are often distracted, interrupted, and called out of focus. And yet! A deeper presence is possible. Practicing SourcePoint Therapy in meditation, or self-practice, gives us very practical ways to experience a greater focus. Coming together with others supports not only ourselves, but our families, communities, and beyond. We move through this world, allowing our focus to rest on and nurture the seed of health.

I hope you’ll join! Sign up through my calendar, reach out with inquiries, I love to hear from you!

What I get to see every week, one session at a time, is so hopeful and inspiring. I wish you all could see it from my perspective.

Your community is healing. The community is taking a moment out of the day to rest. To remember how it feels to feel vibrant, lighter, and without tension. The community is setting down parts that, perhaps, get in the way of a fuller expression of health. The community is repatterning physical, emotional, and mental habits. The community is advocating for its needs during a session, and in doing so, is allowing for the potential of its voice to speak what is true and authentic outside of a session.

The community is practicing, embodying, and remembering: Health is not something to achieve. It is always here.

Thank you for being a part of this interconnected web of healing. 🫶

Excited and honored to be offering and teaching the SourcePoint Therapy Module One Training in Nashville next month. Please reach out if you’d like to be a part of it this year.

I’ve been working closely with Bob Schrei and
Donna Thomson, the co-originators of this energetic modality, in mentorship and ongoing
training as both practitioner and instructor since learning SPT in 2015.

“In a complex world, simplicity has great power. SourcePoint Therapy is a simple approach to
healing for the 21st Century.” - Bob Schrei

The SourcePoint Therapy Module One training is the first of three modules that are required to
become certified as a practitioner. In this training, you will learn to work with points in the human energy field that connect the physical body directly to the universal Blueprint of Health, as well as body scanning techniques to locate energetic blockages in the body that obstruct the information of health from manifesting in the physical body.

Healthcare professionals from a wide range of backgrounds study SourcePoint Therapy to
enhance their therapeutic work. Artists find the work stimulates and enhances their creativity.
Dancers and yoga teachers regularly integrate it into their work and teaching. People who have received the work come to workshops to enhance their practice of self-care. There is no end to the possibilities inherent in deepening and strengthening our grounding in the Blueprint of Health. These trainings are often attended by a diverse group of practitioners, as well as people who are interested in learning it for themselves and for their families.

“In SourcePoint Therapy, we address pattern with pattern. Strengthening the connection to our inherent Blueprint of Health so that it can do its work of re-organizing, re-structuring, shifting patterns of disorder at the energetic level.” - Donna Thomson

Not even going to imagine a world where Pride flags aren’t abundantly blowing in the breeze, celebrating each unique expression of human experience with joy and visibility! Nashville, we need to ! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Please join SourcePoint Therapy™ practitioners Bob Lewis, Katie Parker, and Marci Tasche for a special community care offering on Saturday, October 4. We are offering 45-minute SourcePoint Therapy sessions in a group setting.

ALL proceeds for the entire day will go directly to Save Nashville Pride. 🌈✴️

You will receive focused and specific care from one practitioner, as we attune to the inherent health not only in your system, but in the Blueprint of Health for all human beings. Others will receive a session from another practitioner next to you.

When we receive care next to others, we get to experience what it feels like when we are ALL taken care of, and how important that is! We are not separate, isolated beings in a sea of other separated and isolated beings, and opportunities for care can and should reflect that.

Sliding Scale is available if $130 is unmanageable at this time, as well as opportunities to donate more. Please inquire!

Join us and then go over to to learn other ways to support the LGBTQ+ bodies of Nashville. ❤️🧡💛💚💜

“Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion.” -bell hooks

Need a place to land this fall? There is still space in the small group container I am offering on Thursdays, called The Ground of Our Being. September 25 - October 23 from 6 -7:15 pm.

What is a ground? It’s a foundation, a structure. It is something to return to, again and again, for support.

SourcePoint Therapy serves to help people experience the esoteric in practical, tangible ways. Are you interested in exploring your relationship to and as energy? If so, you would be right at home in this group.

We’ll meet 4 times in person, and once on Zoom. One week you will receive a group distanced session to help integrate our practice.

Everything you learn here, you can take into the world to support you. For those in our group who would like to deepen their experience with an individual session with me, I am offering one 90-minute session at a reduced rate ($175) through the end of November to all participants.

Sliding Scale Available, please inquire!

May all beings be happy, peaceful, and free of suffering.

Yes, it’s happening again! Nashville’s next SourcePoint Therapy training is April 25-27, 2025.

My teacher Bob Schrei and I are co-teaching this Module One training, which is the first of three modules that are required to become certified as a practitioner. For those of you who have been wanting to learn how to practice SourcePoint Therapy for others, to explore the inherent health within you and all humans be-ing, now is the time to sign up.

I have been studying with Bob Schrei & Donna Thomson since 2015. Bob is a Certified Advanced Rolfer™ with 38 years experience, a biodynamic craniosacral therapist, an artist, a former Zen teacher, and the co-originator of SourcePoint Therapy with his wife and partner in healing work Donna, an intuitive, meditation guide, MSW, and author.

In this training, you will learn to work with points in the human energy field that connect the physical body directly to the universal Blueprint of health, as well as body scanning techniques to locate energetic blockages in the body that obstruct the information of health from manifesting in the physical body. Many of you are familiar with this from my integrative bodywork practice.

Healthcare professionals from a wide range of backgrounds study SourcePoint Therapy to enhance their therapeutic work. Artists find the work stimulates and enhances their creativity. Dancers and yoga teachers regularly integrate it into their work and teaching. People who have received the work come to workshops to enhance their practice of self-care. There is no end to the possibilities inherent in deepening and strengthening our grounding in the Blueprint of Health. These trainings are often attended by a diverse group of practitioners, as well as people who are interested in learning it for themselves and for their families.

It is powerful and precise work, and I urge you to join.

The training will be 3 full days, and we will gather each day in a spacious and modern cabin that backs right up to, as many of you know, my favorite place in Nashville – beautiful Beaman Park!

Questions? Ready to join? Want to connect? Let’s talk.

May all beings be happy, peaceful, & free of suffering!

Free Community Offering! For those of us feeling overwhelmed or shut down this week, SourcePoint Therapy invites us to find a middle way — an opportunity to remember the ground of our being, our fundamental health, that is ALWAYS there. When we focus on health and bring it into our awareness, this is where transformation begins. When many people come together to remember, our connection strengthens and ripples out to our families, communities, and our world.

Please join me for a brief meditation on the morning of Thursday, November 7. It is absolutely free, on Zoom, and is here for anyone needing support. I will lead a 15-20 minute meditation that will be recorded so that you can return to it as often as you’d like. Please share this with anyone who might resonate with the need to feel a steady ground amidst the chaos.

Again, it’s open to all and free. Sign up at www.katieparkermassage.com. Or, type “health” in the comments below, and I’ll send you the link.
