About Me

Hello,

My name is Ekaterina Bryant -" Kate" and I am a Licensed Massage Practitioner in the state of Washington.

I am originally from Bulgaria, where I received my Masters Degree in English and Japanese, and I also studied Traditional, Medical and Japanese Massage in 2004. When I came to the United States in 2003, I was inspired by my husband Dr. Randy Bryant DC to learn more about alternative health care, chiropractic and massage. I was fascinated and exited about the possibility of helping people through natural and non-invasive care as massage and chiropractic.

I attended Bellevue Massage School in 2004-2005 and after graduation I received national and state certification as a Licensed Massage Practitioner (LMP). Since my graduation, I've worked in chiropractic clinics in Bellevue as a full time Massage Therapist, specializing in injury treatment of patients involved in car accidents or suffering from various work injuries. Currently, I continue to do treatment work, while also expanding the range of my clients to include people with sports injuries, slip and fall injuries, relaxation and preventive massage for chronic tension patterns and overuse injuries.

I also perform various types of massage - Swedish, Deep Tissue,Pregnancy and Post-partum massage, Oncology Massage, Lypossage, Warm Lava Shells Massage and Reiki in my private practice in Bellevue, Washington. I also teach Infant Massage classes for parents.

Since the beginning of my massage therapy career in 2005, I've met and helped hundreds of people with various problems from all walks of life and ages - from children and teenagers, to pregnant women, car accident victims, people with work injuries, weekend athletes, the elderly or just people looking for relaxation and stress relief. 

I witnessed the amazing changes and improvements they experienced, not just in their health, but overall wellbeing, energy level and quality of life. 

I have achieved great results working with people suffering from 

- headaches

- neck, shoulder and back pain

- leg, hip, knee and foot pains

- numbness and tingling symptoms 

- chronic pain or multiple injuries that have not healed properly

I have taken continuing education classes in Medical Massage, Lypossage, Massage for the childbearing year, Infant massage, Oncology Massage and Reiki. I am constantly expanding my knowledge in different modalities and the latest research in massage and wellness care. I am especially interested in pre- and post-natal massage, aromatherapy and mind-body medicine. 

I designed my new clinic to be a place for physical and mental relaxation, a place to renew your body and calm your mind, as I believe that the health of both - mind and body are intricately connected. 

My massage style is very versatile and could be adapted to clients looking for medical or relaxation massage. In my sessions, I also include hot and cold hydrotherapy, natural massage and essential oils to nourish your skin, and pain relieving gels. 

I strongly believe in client education and it's essential part in the long term effects of massage to promote healing and enhance the body's function. I have educational brochures, newsletters and self-care handouts for my clients to extend the effects of massage into their daily lives.

Massage is a very versatile tool for helping people become healthy and stay healthy. It's natural, non-invasive, with no side effects, when done properly, and an abundance of benefits. That's why I am so exited about being a massage therapist and offering Every Body a way to take advantage of those benefits, so we can all enjoy a 

Healthier, Happier, Longer and More Productive LIFE

Personal Interests:

When I am not helping people relax and unwind, I like to hike, walk my two German Shepard-Husky dogs Apollo and Athena, take dance classes, work out at the gym, listen to music, take pictures of the beautiful Washington nature, get a massage myself, help out with some charity fund raisers and volunteer at an affordable living retirement community in Bellevue, providing massage to the elderly residents.
