Appreciations…
…kind words for our sessions, training and retreats
I have had many kinds of healing experiences over the years. All of them, although well-meaning and bringing some relief, were largely superficial and temporary. True healing, which I am experiencing now during my sessions with Kay and Michael, is different. Through the union of energy healing, therapeutic massage and various vibrations of healing modalities — crystals, tuning forks, singing bowls both crystalline and metal and voice – I am identifying and breaking through long held blocks and pain histories. The therapeutic work we are doing together is transformative on a cellular level and taps into the spiritual, physical, mental, etheric, emotional, elemental and subtle body levels.
I have been involved in three car accidents and various injuries throughout this lifetime including neck surgery where two vertebrae were fused. Even with physical therapy and continuing chiropractic and acupuncture sessions my body and mind were still distressed, fatigued and in pain. I tried Reiki and Shiatsu, healing touch, Alexander and Feldenkrais techniques, Swedish, deep tissue and some Oriental massage techniques not only in Minnesota but in other parts of the country and world. Traumas still held their history in my emotional and physical body. I have had pain and discomfort in my physical body – sciatica at times so painful I walked with a limp and could barely sit for any length of time. In my central nervous and emotional systems, worry and fear manifested as anxiety attacks, migraine headaches, poor digestion and shallow breathing.
When I began working with Kay and Michael, I had not worked with a couple, nor had I worked with a male massage therapist. Even though I created another fear over this, I knew I needed to work through it – there would be something powerful for me if I challenged this fear. Aligning Michael’s healing energy and mastery of anatomy and massage with Kay, who is a master intuitive and sound healer, (using her own beautiful voice, crystals, singing bowls and/or tuning forks); there is a transformation that occurs on deep cellular and energetic levels. With these two absolutely attuned to my energy needs, stuff is moving, and positive changes have and are occurring. The vibrations of the sounds are helping me release fear, stress and worry on emotional, mental, psychic and physical levels as Michael works with the muscles, ligaments and tendons to release pain and tension. Michael is as gentle and/or firm as need be. He knows to work not only on my shoulder blades — backside – but around the front where arms attach to create balance so that working on one area does not stress its opposite. Kay is not only an energy healer but a soul reader and tunes into any misalignment or distress of energy.
It may seem overwhelming having two people work in unison, yet it is powerfully gentle, reassuring, supportive and affirming. Most often they are both in the room working together but at times if they sense it is more helpful, one may work awhile and then the other, and then they join together, like a dance. It depends on what I need. If I request help for some discomfort, I have both Kay and Michael know what to do and attend to those areas. If I come and don’t quite know what I need, they intuit and read what I need and what I can handle energetically even when I am not sure.
I feel so safe and cared for, that for only the 2nd time in my life I actually experienced the feeling of true physical surrender during one of the last sessions. Kay placed tuning forks, moving along my spine as Michael worked on my calve muscles. The combination of massage along with the placement and vibrations of the tuning forks created this sensation of having a clear and pure energetic waterfall gently pouring through me and I relaxed. I realized I had not experienced true relaxation since I was a child. After this session I felt like I had had a soul reading and tune-up at the same time. And I was absolutely at peace.
This releasing of what Eckhart Tolle has included within “the pain body” has been life changing. I only occasionally go to a chiropractor now. I rarely get migraine headaches. I am able to move easier, and I have not experienced sciatica for I don’t even remember how long. I am calmer and kinder to myself and less judgmental, which a miracle is since I am a caregiver for an elderly mother. I have an awareness of what it means to treat myself with care and know sooner when I am out of alignment. I am finally able, at times, to experience a true meditative state. I am able to breathe deeply throughout the day. I am experiencing less anxiety and when I do, I take a breath and have the consciousness to come back to some calm and peace with less mental chatter. I am much more positive towards myself and feeling more unified and in harmony with my body. At times, I can let go of outcomes and worry and not take things personally. This means I can let myself be.
I am changing as I am experiencing blocks and pain releasing. This brings greater alignment, balance, harmony and vitality. I realize I have more gratitude especially towards all the life-giving miracles my body performs on a daily basis. I am aware of more synchronicities in my life. More toxins are being released and I am having fewer digestive issues as I live in a more peaceful body. I trust myself more and experience more joy, even able to establish some amount of comfort in uncomfortable situations.
Kay and Michael’s energy and sound healing modalities along with therapeutic massage crosses so many boundaries and is inclusive on so many levels unlike anything I have experienced before. There are many positive, life affirming breakthroughs and results as their energies and tools amplify, endorse and fortify my healing process. It is also important that they create a protected, safe and supportive space so that I am able to receive and trust in this process.
I was rewarded for persisting these nine months, and have been affirmed and powerfully guided by Kay and Michael as I align with my inner knowing and ground in my own healing energy and service. This inner work is key to spiritual freedom and well-being. It is work I could not do alone. With my body systems receiving more light, my body and consciousness are changing as my energy systems — electrons — flow in a different more natural way creating more harmony. That is their nature. This affects everything from my appearance to the way I age, move and think and how much vitality I can house in this body temple. Ultimately my spiritual landscape is changing as is my life.

“Kay & Michael’s energy and sound healing modalities, along with therapeutic massage is unlike anything I have experienced before. Aligning Michael’s healing energy and mastery of anatomy and massage with Kay, who is a master intuitive and sound healer (using her own beautiful voice, singing bowls and tuning forks) has created deep and lasting transformation, helping me to release fear, stress and worry on emotional, mental, psychic and physical levels. I feel so safe and cared for. In one session, Kay placed and moved tuning forks along either side of my spine as Michael worked on my calve muscles. This combination of massage and vibration created a sensation of having a clear and pure energetic waterfall gently pouring through me and I experienced true and deep physical relaxation, which I had not felt since I was a child. I felt like I had a soul reading and tune-up at the same time and felt absolutely at peace.”
“This course goes beyond learning the fundamentals of sound. It truly is a healing experience and a safe environment for exploring Sound.”
“Kay is professional and very knowledgeable. The right mix of education and practice.”
“I would recommend Kay as an instructor to anyone. She was well prepared, thoughtful and willing to share her wisdom – very organized and inspirational!
“Thank you for more tools in the healing toolbox. I appreciate your openness and lightheartedness with a very important and sometimes “heavy” material. What a gold mine!”
“Loved every moment of the class. Kay is an awesome teacher and after just one class, I’m already feeling the amazing power of sound.”
“I am taking the entire series and it has been fabulous – loving every class!”
“We found the course with Kay Grace very illuminating on the methodology of Sound Healing. Kay brought more than her knowledge and methods; she added a wonderful sense of warmth, humor and wisdom that made her an ideal teacher and mentor. We feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn from her in an interactive setting. Would highly recommend her to others.”
“Kay is generous with her time and materials, and resources as well as giving additional valuable resources for those who want to explore something further. Each class in this series has held surprises and unexpected revelations – highly recommend it!”
“Kay is a knowledgeable and relaxed instructor. I was able to experience a Tibetan Singing Bowl demo – the sound created deep vibrations, and a washing or clearing of my energy field, while supporting shifts needed to balance and find my own voice.”
“The whole series (sound healing Level 1) was wonderful – for me it was meant to be. I would highly recommend this course series!”
“Thank you for your generosity of spirit in sharing your wisdom of Sound – loved every minute of it, and it will continue to vibrate in me. “
“Loved the experiential aspect. I appreciate how clearly and simply and accessibly profound information was communicated and taught. Thank you so much. All was good. Love it.”
“Very uplifting! Kay does a fabulous job of melding science with metaphysics. My experience has been very transformative and has carried over in a good way throughout each class. I highly recommend the series.”
“I found Kay & Michael when I was looking for someone who knew how to do massage and sound healing, hoping for some pain relief, but I got so much more. With every appointment, these two amazed me. Kay is a very talented sound healer and Intuitive Medium. Michael’s talent is energy healing and magic massage! A single google review is not enough to describe how much change they helped me bring to my life. Very professional, intuitive and extremely gifted.
MORE than just sound healing and massage, they help you uncover all that is within, so you can step onto the path of healing yourself. After working with them for a year, I went through their one-year mentorship – a journey to enhance and sculpt my raw talent as a healer. I cannot recommend them enough. It can be difficult to find authentic healers; I am so grateful to have found Kay and Michael!”
Thank-you again, Michael, for another powerful Craniosacral Therapy session. You have an amazing gift and my highest recommendation for craniosacral therapy and energy healing. While suffering one of the worst migraines in many years, you were able to drop my pain from a 9 to a 3! When you added just a few minutes of massage at my neck and shoulders, your intuitive smart fingers found and released pockets of tight muscles that were not even in my awareness. I felt complete understanding and support as you sensed into my comfort throughout my session.
“After rupturing a disc in my lower back years ago, I have sought many forms of relief to avoid surgery. I was scheduled to see another surgeon just prior to my first visit with you concerning this. I have now canceled my Orthopedic appointment and am pain free as a result of the work you performed on me. Thank you from the center of my being.”
Michael and Kay are very gifted healers. I learned sound healing with Kay and she is a leader in this field in the country. Michael is a skilled massage therapist. Both Michael and Kay are highly intuitive, compassionate, and thoughtful people. I highly recommend Energy Express!
Kay is amazing at what she does. I’m a person who loves and is very interested in holistic healing yet hesitates to be fully open with these modalities; she made me feel so comfortable that I opened to the energy healing & intuitive reading easily. Kay is the 1st person I was able to open up with to have a direct experience with another part of myself. You can feel her authentic connection to her healer self and that allows you to comfortably and without fear, access whatever parts of yourself you want a deeper connection with. I without hesitation would recommend Kay.
Michael and Kay are attentive and intuitive. They create a really loving and caring atmosphere in their home and open a space to be honest and free in the body and mind. I’m grateful for the energy they have offered to help me manage chronic pain and heal from an injury. Much appreciation for the support I’ve received from these two special people.
Kay and Michael were a very pleasant surprise! I had no idea what to expect when I booked my first ever sound healing session with Kay and a subsequent introductory massage with Michael (at a great rate). I’ve visited different businesses that work out of a home, and there’s usually something odd about them, like it looks like a home aside from this one room, and the change usually throws me. Their home and business set up has a very nice flow, and is open and not jarring at all. Now to the meat and potatoes…
The sound healing was a very nice session to have prior to the massage. Listening to the gentle vibrations is very soothing even for someone like myself who has ADHD and can barely stand lying still and clearing my mind. Kay’s various prompts to help you clear your mind are very useful.
Due to the fact that a dumb woman rear-ended me at a stoplight 3 years ago, I’ve seen many massage therapists, but Michael is a different breed. I have a lot of upper body tightness-thick ropey tissues, deep knots, etc. Michael moved along my upper body in a very smooth sequence and softened everything along the way. He didn’t jump around, didn’t use too much pressure, and I was able to focus on breathing through any of the really bad spots. I didn’t feel nauseous, tense, etc. Most of my past massages have not been completely relaxing, but I think I could have fallen asleep during this one (if I wasn’t such a chatterbox).
Afterward, all three of us chatted about my past care, future care, etc. They are very non-judgmental, caring, and open to sharing their own journey. I love authentic people because my mind gets to take a break from analyzing everything that is said and done. Visiting this business is a gift!

I went on a Sound Healing retreat with Kay and Michael in a beautiful space right on Lake Superior and the mix of Sound ceremonies and healing practices with time to relax, hike and share stories & music around a fire was the perfect combination. All the details were handled, and they made all the healthy (and delicious) food for us themselves. We even went snowshoeing in the moonlight to call for owls, and yes, two answered! I left feeling peaceful and centered with my love of all things nature restored. Forest Bathing meets Sound healing – very relaxing
“I came here very closed. I wasn’t able to touch the healing aspects of things as I have in the past, for myself, the earth, or anything really. So I was ready to experience anything to get any of that back, and on this retreat, I did. Things really opened up for me to get in touch with myself again. It’s been so rewarding and just life-giving. I really appreciate the experience Kay & Michael gave me – to be here in Puerto Rico – with beautiful beaches, the bioluminescent bay, rainforest hikes and meditations, but even more, for finding myself again. Thank you!”
