About Kerry-Alisa Young, RN, LMT

Hi! I’m Kerry-Alisa

I have been practicing and studying healing arts since 1993.

I love the moments I share with people where the rest of the world falls away completely and the only thing that exists is this moment of healing.

I value my healing arts work because it allows me to meet people in

some of the most real, raw and vulnerable situations – and uncover ways

for our humanity to shine and our spirits to connect.

I’m here to support you on your healing journey.

My approach to healing arts work is holistic and individualized. I appreciate every person who enters my studio for who you are and where you are in your healing process.

I offer techniques that alleviate a range of challenges including acute or chronic muscular-skeletal injury; reduce stress hormones, cortisol and adrenaline; inspire spiritual health through self awareness and encouraging emotional release; and more.

I thoughtfully create an environment in which you can feel safe to be vulnerable and express your needs.

As I listen closely to your concerns through your words, your body movement, muscle tissue and energetic body, I craft an approach specifically tailored to address your experience and issues.

My goal is to help you discover ways that your body and mind can heal.

My Background

I began my journey at the Boston Shiatsu School in 1993. My practice has evolved through the study of different body and energy work modalities coupled with spiritual studies. Through the years I have practiced Five Elements Shiatsu, Muscular Therapy, Muscle Release Technique, Acutonics, Samvahan Vibrational Massage and Sound Healing.

Additionally, I have focused on prenatal & postpartum massage, infant massage, birth doula care and death doula care. I have worked in various settings from private practice, private home, hospitals, hospice facilities, community centers. I have also worked as an RN in hospice, labor and delivery and primary care nursing.

Throughout the decades I have collaborated with psychotherapists, sex therapists, midwives, chiropractors, acupuncturists, physicians assistants, nurse practitioners, medical doctors. I have worked closely with these professionals in a collaborative effort to support patients and clients in healing through trauma, difficult pregnancy, labor, postpartum, pregnancy loss and end-of-life process.
