Meet Kai


Kai Tollkühn has been helping clients in the Richmond area for 15 years, specializing in helping clients find relief from pain caused by conditions such as frozen shoulder, sciatica, chronic headaches, and the many types of neck, back and hip issues. While well versed in a wide range of modalities, his primary techniques for chronic pain center on the palpation and manipulation of trigger points, and deep structural gliding techniques.
Kai understands the importance of matching the massage pressure to that to which your body responds best. For some people, especially those with chronic pain or fibromyalgia, a lighter touch may yield the best results. For other people, significantly more pressure may be needed, and Kai will modulate his pressure to each client’s needs, from gentle to very deep. His ability to safely utilize extreme amounts of pressure also makes him an ideal choice for anyone who enjoys the deepest pressure during a massage with or without pain or injury.
