About Kendra

A Deep Dive into Holistic Healing

Kendra's journey into holistic healing is deeply rooted in her extensive background and personal experiences. Holding a B.A. in Psychology and an A.S. in Occupational Therapy, she pursued a career (1996–2020) spanning acute care, home health, and outpatient clinics, with a specialization in upper-extremity rehabilitation and brain injury recovery. Her passion for education led her to teach Occupational Therapy at Linn-Benton Community College (2013–2020) and founded the PNW Head Injury Support Group (2012). From 2013–2021, she served on the Brain Injury Alliance of Oregon board as secretary and president. She was a consistent speaker and facilitator at the annual PNW (OR, WA, ID, AK) Head Injury Conference, and she held a national certification as a Certified Brain Injury Specialist (CBIS) for many years. 

In 2017, Kendra launched her holistic healing practice, blending Tensegrity Medicine™, Bowenwork®️, Mind-Body Bowen Therapy, Reiki, sound & frequency therapy, ancestral restoration, somatic awareness, and Quantum Consciousness Facilitation. Her own journey through trauma, injury, and loss fuels her commitment to helping clients achieve alignment across their mind, body, soul, and spirit.

Relocated back to my home state of Michigan, and love being within walking distance to beautiful Lake Michigan. I am currently working remotely, and soon, in-person sessions at The Corner Vic, in Manistee, MI.

The Tensegrity Medicine™ Difference

Kendra's unique approach centers on Tensegrity Medicine™ - A Whole-System Approach to Healing

Tensegrity Medicine™ (TM) is a holistic approach based on the understanding that the body is an interconnected system supported by fascia, not separate parts. Working within a BioTensegrity framework, TM restores balance, adaptability, and resilience across the entire system.

Each session includes an in-depth assessment and gentle, hands-on techniques that support communication between the fascial and nervous systems. By combining light-touch bodywork, neurofascial techniques, movement, energetic support, and mind–body awareness, sessions help unwind tension patterns at their root while honoring the body’s natural protective responses.

As the system settles and reorganizes, clients often experience relief from pain, improved nervous system regulation, and greater overall well-being—along with a deeper connection to their body’s innate wisdom.

Tensegrity Medicine supports the body’s natural ability to heal, creating lasting change through balance across physical, emotional, and energetic layers.

“Human Fascia is a continuous and ubiquitous three-dimensional web of pre-tensioned connective tissue permeating and supporting every cell, tissue, and organ of the body, providing structural integrity and tensional balance. Fascia is not a passive container but a dynamic, complex tissue that is constantly remodeling in response to mechanical and biochemical stimuli, modulating muscle function, bone health, fluid dynamics, joint stability, posture, pain, interoception, and proprioception.

Moreover, Fascia plays a crucial role in intercellular communication, emotions, immune defence, and inflammation regulation."
