Body/Energy Work Therapists

Heather McKeithen-Owner/Founder

Shamanic Practitioner; Reiki Master Practitioner; 200-RYT

I was born and raised in an active military family. Through my many life experiences I came to a point where I felt things did not seem to be “working” any longer. I was constantly feeling blue, groggy and physically unwell. Something had to change-and quickly! I found salvation in Shamanic Healing and was able to walk again with clarity and purpose and HAPINESS after several years of practice and TONS of inner-work. I was eventually taken as an apprentice for two years under the wise wings of Mara Bishop of WholeSpirit in Durham, NC where I graduated as a Shamanic Practitioner (Mara was an apprentice under both Micheal Harner and Sandra Ingerman. Talk about solid lineage!). I enjoyed every magical moment of my apprenticeship and am SO excited to share what I learned with this community.

In 2004 I stepped on to a yoga mat for the first time. In 2005 I tried my first hot yoga class at the current studio location I still enjoy attending when I am not teaching at Indigo. I received encouragement from my family and decided to take the plung and further my relationship with yoga by enrolling in a 200-RYT program led by the uncomparable knowledge of both Virginia Gallagher and Lisa Rischitelli through Hot Asana Yoga University. This was one of the most positive life changing experiences I’ve yet to encounter.

I live in Aberdeen NC with my husband, 2 daughters, 2 dogs, 3 cats and a few chickens and I am LOVING. THIS. LIFE!!!!

I hope to share this journey with you!

Kacey Graner

LMBT

After becoming licensed as a massage and bodywork therapist, I moved to Wilmington, NC to complete a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science. In Wilmington I personalized & strengthened my massage technique and opened my first private practice, Port City Massage. I have now opened a new private practice in Aberdeen, NC. My focus is to bring balance to the body through deep tissue & neuromuscular techniques, stretching and at times cupping therapy. My formal education in the science of exercise, fitness, health and wellness provides a strong understanding of anatomy and physiology of the human body. I also value the mind-body connection and softer modalities (stretching, CBD, aroma and heat therapies). I holistically blend the East and the West, and aim to create a dynamic and effective massage for my clients.
