You’ve Learned to Ignore Pain and Discomfort. And for good reason, it hurts.

But the continual bypass of what you actually need to do is not helping you.

Whether you’ve been around the Medical wheel -  PT, MRI, Ice OR have traversed the Alternatives: Acupuncture, Supplements, etc.

How you’ve learned to move in gravity already has effects on your range of motion before you sit down at a desk or hit the gym for a workout. 

Sure, you can scroll through Instagram and find a stretch to do. But at the end of the day you don’t really know what you need.

Start Bodywork with me and get to know what your body actually needs.

About Randi Kofsky

What I do

I specialize in helping action-oriented adults who struggle to fit in the amount of rest and relaxation their mind-bodies need.

My work helps people to relax, breathe deeper, feel less pain and move better. By unwinding bounded energy and stress in the nervous system while simultaneously addressing connective tissue and muscle groups stuck in holding patterns, clients are able to “let go”. I follow the flow of subtle energies through the spinal cord, lengthening the spine.  Many clients remark “feeling taller” after a session.  My goal is to support ease, integration and an experience of feeling whole in a body.

My Approach

I work from a holistic perspective as there are myriad influences on how we are in a body.  I ask clients to fill out a questionnaire before the session and we discuss the responses when we meet.  We take note of how clients stand and move in space, and any patterns that have taken form.

My skill range spans a wide breadth of modalities and pressure. I pay attention to how people breathe throughout the session. It’s important to me that my clients feel safe, comfortable and can trust the process of the work.

In closing the session, we make a plan for how often bodywork is indicated. Oftentimes, people choose to work with me for at least a few sessions in order to unwind long held tension and establish a new baseline. I also discuss ways clients can support the work we’ve done between sessions.
People find my work is very effective for back and neck pain, shoulder issues, migraine and cluster headaches, jaw tension, hip pain and sciatic nerve issues.  I help a lot of people with nerve-y sensations in the arms and wrists. Athletes seek my assistance when training for an event or overdoing a workout. I’m certified in pre/post natal massages and have helped women through high risk pregnancies.

Testimonials

Randi is truly a gifted and intuitive bodyworker. I have had tons of massage and bodywork and Randi stands out as one of the best. I had asked for a cranio-sacral session with her, and I really appreciate that she instead assessed what my body actually needed at the moment, which turned out to be some gentle holds, working on a much deeper level. You can feel her sensitivity and her caring through her touch. I can’t recommend her highly enough. I felt a huge difference after her session.
— Denise L.
Randi has the ability to make time stop! The outside world of stress and commitments melts away during a session with her. I appreciate that she takes a thorough assessment before starting her session and looks for changes after the healing session. Not only do I feel like a million bucks, but it’s great to know my body has showed changes as well. I highly recommend her if you are in a funk, have some pain or tension, or just need an opportunity to realign yourself!!
— Katherine M.
Randi is amazing! I work long hours and generally feel a lot of stress/tension in my neck and back but Randi relieves all of it each time I see her. I see her regularly, ever month. She really has healing hands. I highly recommend Randi to anyone who wants to feel better!
