Deep Tissue Massage

My life took a pivotal turn at the age of 21 when I underwent a major pelvic reconstructive surgery. Every phase of my recovery was challenging. The structure of my pelvis forever changed, causing a ripple effect of tightened muscles, compensation issues, nerve damage, and major scar tissue adhesions in my upper leg and abdomen. ​ ​I visited countless bodyworkers to find relief, and learned how to listen to my body. I changed my major to study more in school, and realized I want to help others with challenges like mine. I enrolled in massage school and developed a strong foundation in bodywork, then hit the road for a year, traveling through remote villages of South East Asia where I learned ancient forms of bodywork and herbalism in local temples. During this time I received a post-graduate diploma in Ayurvedic Medicine and Yogic Science, studied Thai massage, and Yoo Fai (Thai Traditional Postnatal Treatments.)Show More

I am Katie Rose.

I am Katie Rose. I learned early that the land speaks in stones, feathers, leaves, and soil—if you take the time to listen. Childhood curiosity became devotion, and devotion became study: UC Berkeley, Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama, GUMP Research Station in French Polynesia, Charles Darwin Research Station in the Galápagos, the Leibniz Center for Tropical Marine Research in Germany. Across continents, I witnessed the subtle conversations between humans and the earth—the pulse of life beneath our feet, the wisdom that flows through water, wind, roots, and wings. I returned home to Big Sur, to the place that first shaped me, to weave science, ancestral knowing, and lived experience into Woven Herbs, an education tea business that weaves our wild native medicines into healing teas, helping my community learn to recognize that medicine grows abundantly and wildly, and is here for us, always. Here at Woven, healing is a remembering. Remembering the rhythms of our bodies, the medicine of plants, bees, and minerals, the quiet intelligence that whispers beneath habit, depletion, and forgetting. With Woven Herbs, I work with plants—herbalism, foraging, tea ceremonies, herbal astrology readings, forest bathing, wilderness therapy, guided foraging hikes—learning their language, their medicine, their ethics of reciprocity. Independently, I work with bees—apitherapy, hive stewardship, bee medicine, dreaming with the bees—receiving their teaching of harmony, vigilance, devotion, and reciprocity. I work with cycles—new moon and full moon ceremonies, women’s circles, menstrual cycle coaching, womb wisdom tea blends, seasonal rituals to honor equinoxes and solstices—inviting the body to remember its innate rhythm and connection to the unseen forces. I work with reflection and guidance—dream therapy, life and health coaching, nature therapy—holding space for insight, integration, and gentle transformation. I witness the softening of chronic stress, the restoration of sleep and digestion, the release of dependence, the return of energy and clarity. Healing emerges as relationship: to self, to land, to breath, to the threads that connect us all. It is an honor to hold ceremonial space within Healer Hive, to walk alongside those who seek to root back into vitality, rhythm, and belonging, and to remember, together, that medicine is all around us, alive, and generous.Show More

Healing Touch

My path as a healer began when I was in college at UC Berkeley, studying philosophy and living at a 60-person vegan co-op. At 19, I stepped into a manager role at my co-op that involved supporting my housemates with interpersonal conflict. There, I first held space for people to express their emotions and needs openly—and witnessed how honesty and vulnerability could transform tension into connection. I felt deeply aligned in that role and knew this was work I was called to, so I went on to complete a Conflict Mediation training to deepen my skills and experience. Years later, seeking support for my own anxiety, perfectionism, and over-functioning, I struggled to find a therapist through my insurance who felt like the right fit. Wanting a body-based approach for deeper transformation, I began working with a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. I immediately resonated with my coach, and felt relief to finally be working with someone who I didn't have to explain myself to, and who brought in expertise beyond my own experience. Over time, I built a deeper sense of embodied safety, expanded my emotional range, and started to shift my chronic pattern of constantly being busy but never feeling like I was doing enough. Now, I am so much more in tune with my body's wisdom and feel more spaciousness, possibility, and empowerment in my life. Grateful for the profound impact this work had on me, I pursued training in Somatic Experiencing myself. Studying the modality has deepened my healing even further, and I’m honored to now be able to offer others this same support.Show More
