Katie - Founder & Master Practitioner

Katie had a vision to create a space where it was OK just to go and be. A space where it was safe to let go of any ego, to allow people just to be free and be present in that very moment. Giving permission to escape from the day to day stresses and surrender to healing for an hour or two at a time.

After training in the UK, Katie travelled to Indonesia to train with the local people who had healing in their ancestral lineage. Immersed in the local culture it was a humbling experience which was hard to come back from but immediately inspired the creation of The Hidden Sanctuary.

With a constant thirst for knowledge, and understanding of the body Katie studied Japanese Integrated Medicine under Dr Chris Roworth in London. She now practices both acupuncture and a combination of all the massage techniques in her armoury, making for very powerful treatments.

Katie is trained in the foundations of Japanese therapeutic massage, acupuncture, anatomy, physiology, oriental philosophy, and energy balancing techniques. She is a qualified Practitioner of Amatsu Japanese Integrated Physical Medicine, specialising in structural and musculoskeletal treatments. Her training includes joint and ligament correction, positional release, craniosacral and fascial techniques, remedial exercise, and Amatsu-specific acupressure — enabling her to work with a wide range of conditions such as back pain, frozen shoulder, sports injuries, undiagnosed pain and postural imbalances.

Building on this, Katie has completed advanced training in Japanese Internal Medicine (Okuden), with specialist qualifications in both Advanced Visceral Treatment (Shindenjutsu) and Amatsu Japanese Acupuncture. Shindenjutsu offers gentle yet powerful techniques to restore balance and function to the body’s organs and internal systems, supporting those with complex internal conditions such as IBS and other digestive disorders, chronic fatigue syndromes, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune-related concerns, post-viral conditions, and vaccine-related injury. Amatsu Acupuncture blends traditional Japanese methods with integrated healing approaches to enhance energy flow, vitality, and whole-body balance.

Katie’s background in reflexology, deep tissue sports massage, thai massage, meditation techniques and reiki all blend into her treatments and also are available to clients as ‘Master Practitioner’ treatments. Practising for over 10 years. Her ability to read the body and feel what it going on makes the treatments all the more powerful. Katie gives you presence. She ueses everything in her armoury to bring your body back to a healing state.
