Karina Braun

About me:

Karina Braun has been in the massage therapy and bodywork field for 11 years. She has worked in all aspects of this career. She attended the University of North Texas for her undergraduate studies and then went to Hands on School of Massage in Garland, TX in 1997. She began her career by owning a small hair salon and spa in Texas. Later, Karina decided to study Reiki and began teaching others how to utilize Reiki in order to balance the energetic body of their client. She also received Yoga Instructor Certification in 2001 from Yogamotion. In 2002, Karina relocated to Las Vegas and taught at Dahan Institute of Massage Studies, then went on to work at a world renowned spa on the strip. Karina has firsthand knowledge in many facets of this career, in addition to, experiencing a repetitive strain injury from doing barefoot deep compression massage. Feeling all the emotions that go along with being injured definitely gave her more empathy to help others in this field. Also, Karina has been through many aspects of the medical system and can assist other therapists in the healing of their injuries. The book Creating Peace with Your Hands is compiled from many hours of hands on practical knowledge and a great deal of research on injury and prevention. In this book, Karina has given techniques to facilitate the health of body, mind, and spirit. She incorporates an approach to healing that is not only accurate but one that everyone can embrace. The book Creating Peace with Your Hands is brilliant, thought provoking, and inspiring to everyone that reads it.
