At Balsam Bodywork, our mission is to provide functional and therapeutic bodywork that alleviates pain, releases tension, and addresses the root causes of musculoskeletal imbalances.
Through an integrative approach, we incorporate therapeutic massage with yoga-based movement and breath work to support deep healing and long-term wellness.
Meet Kim!
Kim is the owner of Balsam Bodywork and a licensed massage and bodywork therapist in North Carolina (#22381). Her journey in the healing arts began in the athletic training room at Warren Wilson College, where she assisted the Athletic Trainer in treating sports injuries.
With a background in science education, Kim spent years inspiring a love of emergent and alternative learning in western North Carolina. Her path gradually shifted from education to the healing arts after completing her yoga teacher training in 2021 and massage therapy training in 2024.
Kim takes a functional, inquiry-based approach to bodywork, fostering a collaborative experience where therapist and client work together to uncover root causes, make meaningful progress, and restore the mind-body connection.
She is excited to share that she is in the process of applying to Doctor of Physical Therapy programs in western North Carolina, with the goal of expanding her scope of practice and deepening her ability to serve her clients.
