About Karen Kerns

Karen Kerns, RPP, RCST, MT is a dental hygienist, massage therapist, craniosacral therapist and Registered Polarity Practitioner.

"From 1982 to 1986 I was working as a dental hygienist and a massage therapist. One aspect of my massage training was the study of energy and energy techniques. I used the V-spread energy technique in my hygiene practice to stop gingival bleeding. I was intrigued by the result of rapid cessation of bleeding from this seemingly simple hold. I wanted to find out more about this “energy".

"In 1986 I received a notice of a Polarity Therapy class being offered in Dearborn, Michigan by Mr. John Bodary. While attending this class I realized the possibility of achieving similar relaxation results from this new discipline as what I witnessed in massage. Pain relief and muscle relaxation could be accomplished without always using an elbow or deep painful inhibition techniques. This form of therapy could be used on a fully clothed person and without oils or massage lotion.

"Today, and hopefully for the rest of my practicing days, I will hold consciousness for the emerging spirit within. Polarity Therapy and Dr. Stone, its founder, has instilled in me a deep realization of the healing ability of the life force behind our very existence. The awareness of the body housing this powerful spirit is every bit a part of our spiritual paths, what ever that path may be. It has given me a passionate hopefulness of our evolution as conscious, healthy and above all, loving humans being."
