Welcome to wellness bliss
Focused care relieving shoulder, hip, and low back pain right here in the heart of Kailua.

Calm, professional, and created for healing my space is built to restore both your body and peace of mind.
Recovery at its Finest

Tight hips often cause misalignment and discomfort in other areas of the body. My therapy sessions release deep tension, enhance flexibility, and help restore smooth, pain-free movement tailored to your needs.

Chronic pain doesn’t have to define your everyday life or limit your potential. Instead of masking symptoms, we work closely with you to build a plan that addresses the real sources of pain and discomfort.

Shoulder pain can make even basic tasks feel difficult or frustrating. With me, I go beyond the surface to address the root of your discomfort, improve motion, and help restore fluid, pain-free movement.
My Philosophy
My philosophy is rooted in empathy, education, and intention. As a more private clinic, I consult with new clients first to ensure we’re the right fit and can truly help no empty promises, just honest care. I go beyond surface-level pain relief by addressing the root causes of chronic pain and mobility issues through a personalized approach. Every session is a collaboration built on trust, communication, and techniques designed to restore not just your body, but your peace of mind.
EXCELLENT

Karren was terrific from the start. She called me very quickly to complete a consultation and was excited to work with me to find the root cause of my issue rather than just band-aid it. The first session provided relief that I’ve been seeking for years, when nothing else worked. It feels like magic, but it’s really all KARREN’s care, attention, and skill.Posted on Google![]()

I had total knee replacement in March 2024 & still dealing with swelling and range of motion. After one session w/ Karren I had a huge improvement w/ range of motion with my hip. The cupping reduced the swelling above my knee. She released the tightness in my T-band, lats & hamstring. I was pretty amazed how just one session w/ Karren did so much. She truly listens & gets to work where it matters. I have become a big believer in cupping. Looking forward to more sessions.Posted on Google![]()

I have been dealing with neck and arm pain for about 4 months not able to find any relief. I started searching and came across Knots Out Pain Relief. Walked in to Karrens office on my first session with 7/10 pain and walked out with none! The pain and heaviness I have been feeling in my arm was gone! Don't know how she did it but I am so grateful to have found her!Posted on Google![]()

Going to Knots Out & receiving care from Karen has been such a great experience, I can’t imagine seeing anyone else to help me manage my pain. She really dives into the root of the issues, and if any pain persists, she tries to find more/different solutions to tackle the trouble areas, which I really appreciate, since most doctors like to throw the same physical therapy and pain medication “treatments” at me with no improvement. Karen herself is also such a sweet and friendly person, it’s always a pleasure to see her. Highly recommend Knots Out, well worth the price!Posted on Google![]()

Karren was highly recommended by a friend, and did not disappoint. She got into and released years of chronic tension with both knowledge and intuition, using a variety of techniques and movement. Karren really pinpointed my troubled areas and I’m looking forward to continue working with her.Posted on Google![]()

I can’t say enough good things about Knots Out Pain Relief! I came in dealing with some serious lower back pain, and Karen worked absolute magic. From the moment the session started, she was professional, knowledgeable, and really took the time to focus on the areas that needed attention most. Karen’s technique and attention to detail made a huge difference. By the end of the session, the tension and pain in my lower back had significantly improved. You can tell she genuinely cares about helping people feel better and takes pride in her work. If you’re dealing with muscle pain, tightness, or just need a great massage, I highly recommend checking them out. Huge thanks to Karen for the amazing work, my back definitely appreciates it!Posted on Google![]()

One visit… and my shoulder pain for 7 years gone! No, the shoulder isn’t completely fixed, but the pain is at least gone. That is step one. I’m so excited for my future visits and thankful!! Do it!Posted on Google![]()

I’ve been dealing with heel pain and a heel spur for a long time and stumbled onto Karren’s website one night while searching for mayofascia release therapy. I’ve been to lots of massage and physical therapists but Karren is different as she tries to really target the specific issue you are dealing with and with techniques I haven’t experienced with other therapists. Have gone a couple times so far and have had tremendous results in just the few short sessions. Today was the first time in a long time I was walking around with no pain in my heel and I know it’s because of the work she has been doing on my leg. Highly, highly recommend ❤️Posted on Google![]()

Karren is hands down the best massage therapist I’ve been to on island. As a therapist myself, I know what it takes to achieve pain free results for clients. Karren has a deep understanding of the body and what specific massage techniques are required to improve any muscular-skeletal issue. Highly recommend her to anyone with serious chronic and acute pain, especially related to injuries and an active lifestyle.
I begin with a consultation where you share details about your pain or mobility issue. This helps me determine if I am the right fit I only move forward if I’m confident we can help. If not, I’m happy to refer you to a trusted specialist for your pain relief & needs.
I specialize in pain relief, chronic pain, shoulder and hip mobility issues, and low back discomfort. My focus is on identifying root causes and restoring movement so you can return to the activities you love.
Not quite. I am a more private, results driven practice that focuses on long-term healing not temporary relaxation. Every session is intentional, with a plan designed specifically for your needs.
Frequency depends on your condition and treatment goals. Some clients find relief after a few sessions, while others benefit from ongoing support. I’ll create a custom plan during your initial consultation to achieve pain relief &
