Healing Reviews

Sports Injuries, Pain & Peak Performance

“I had a skateboarding accident last November and woke up from blacking out in the hospital with nerve damage, a fractured skull in three places, throwing up blood that I almost died but they were able to stop the bleeding. I tried Chiropractic which helped straighten my neck, shoulders and back. My first Cranio Sacral session with Kayt gave me a lot of breakthrough; my body was twisted and my left leg felt seriously twisted numb and I couldn’t walk normal.
Fortunately after my first session I was greatly untwisted and my leg was tracking properly. Each time after that my body got drastically better and nerve function began to be restored and now I feel almost totally healed. I feel like without Cranio therapy I may have had a lifelong problem with my body. I’m so grateful, Kayt really has a special ability to heal.” Michael H., Capistrano Beach, CA, Skate Boarder

Working out is one of my sports. I had pain in my back and right shoulder from the gym and thinking about getting an MRI. After my session with Kayt my back pain is less and is feeling 80% better. My shoulder isn’t hurting anymore. This is my first experience with Cranio Sacral and I’m amazed! Emil O., Laguna Niguel, CA

“My injuries began when I fell off my bike and hit my head. I have seen my doctor, my Chiropractor, an acupuncturist, a physical therapist, a neurologist, had an MRI and not finding relief for my pain.  This caused head-aches during the day which pooled at night making sleep difficult. I combine Massage/Cranio Sacral and my headaches are gone!!  I come back for maintenance visits as needed.” Cindy B, Dana Point, CA

Kayt has been wonderful to work with!! My injuries from sports are finally healing and I have my mobility back! She also helped me understand what is going on in my body and educated me on ways to help improve healing at home! Mia W, Austin, TX

I found Kayt when I was having issues with my hearing following a rugby tournament. I went to the ear doctor on multiple occasions for them to tell me that my ear looked fine. I was very frustrated as I knew that my hearing was muffled going on a month. I had very brief experience with craniosacral treatment before and decided to book a session. Kayt has the ability to make you feel so comfortable and cared for. Immediately upon leaving my appointment with her, my ear popped and my hearing returned to normal. I would 10/10 recommend booking a session with Kayt for any of your healing needs. Thank you so much for your help! Sophie P., Rhinos Rugy Athlete

Migraines, Concussions & Sinus

“I was at work and being a manager I had the closing shift and three more hours to go. I could feel a migraine coming on and accepted Kayt’s help when she offered. I have never experienced anything like this. My migraine started leaving and my left sinus also released. This Cranio really works.” Donna J., Irvine, CA

Wish I could give more than 5 stars. Kayt is a gift. For the past several years I struggled with sinus pressure when my body was fighting something. It was always the first sign. After having Covid, my sinus pressure/headache never went away. After two months of consistent pain, I was advised to try Craniosacral. My goal was to find someone that didn’t just have craniosacral as another tool in their tool belt but someone that focused and specialized in this healing method. I am grateful that those requirements lead me to Kayt.

I was hoping the visit was going to be like a Swedish massage but on my skull. I wanted to massage the pressure OUT! I had no idea Craniosacral is the exact opposite of that! It is a very light touch and Kayt has the gift of healing with true intention and care.

I have not had any sinus pressure headaches since my first visit. I was having them DAILY…ALL DAY! Kayt checked in with me as I continued to heal from the session (yes, your healing continues after you leave) and even when I wanted to schedule another session Kayt recommended I wait until I felt like it was necessary. She is not looking for repeat clients. She is looking to help you and heal you. It’s as simple and as beautiful as that. Sara H., San Clemente, CA

Kayt has a beautiful presence and healing touch. She is kind, joyful and professional. I am a medical doctor and I go to Kayt for various health issues and injuries. She has also treated and helped my athlete daughter with a concussion, as well as sports injuries and stress management. We both highly recommend Kayt! Charise and Leah, Dana Pt, CA

Kayt is an absolute gem!! I am loving working with her. I look forward to each visit and truly notice and feel her healing techniques working on very deep levels of my body, concussion and mind too. I always leave feeling euphoric and like im ME again!! I had a car accident and I am noticing so much less tension in my neck and my head just loves the healing touch of Kayt and craniosacral. I highly recommend!!  Courtney J., Laguna Niguel, CA

Auto Accident Injuries

“I suffer from chronic pain since a life changing car accident.  It’s driven me to seek out holistic therapies to manage pain.  It also led me to my career as a massage therapist. Kayt is a highly gifted Cranial Sacral therapist.  
She brings a calming, peaceful presence and her work heals the nervous system, allows the body to release tension patterns and is simply a profound experience that unlocks the body in ways that nothing else has been able to accomplish.  Try her. You’ll be glad you did! Your body will thank you.” Vicki L., Massage Therapist – San Diego, CA

With great relief I discovered Kayt about 2 years ago, after my former CranioSacral therapist moved away.  She was trained by the Upledger Institute which in my experience over the past 15 years has been incredible beyond belief !!
Kayt has provided a lot of healing for me due to a car accident I was involved in over 30 years ago.  Her skills and gentle manner are something I always look forward to.  You may not understand or even doubt how such gentle movements to the body can create such incredible results, like I initially did. Do yourself a favor and give Kayt a try, you won’t be disappointed. Pamela L, Dana Point, CA

Knee Injuries

“I injured my left my knee while dancing. I didn’t think it was that serious but after a few days I had zero mobility, lots swelling and soreness. I couldn’t see a doctor right away and opted to have therapy with Kayt. She is so gentle and caring.  
While she performed therapy on my knee my entire body experience great peace and the pain lifted off. The minute she was done I started walking with great ease. To my surprise the following day the stiffness was gone and I was able to walk up and down the stairs with no pain. I highly recommend Cranio Sacral Therapy with Kayt.”
Abby Q. – Dana Point, CA

“Kayt is truly a natural healer. Her graceful demeanor and warm hands are a perfect combination for creating an environment for healing. She has helped me tremendously with my right knee. As she was performing the Cranio Sacral therapy, I could feel my right knee heat up as blood began to circulate in this area. After a few sessions, my knee is completely better. Thank you Kayt, you are amazing.”
Dr. Manuel Paniagua, Chiropractor

Kayt is amazing! She has incredible healing abilities with her magic touch. I injured myself while skating & hurt my knee when I fell. After just one session with her I felt major improvements on my knee. The swelling went down and the pain decreased. I also had more mobility on it since it was less painful to move. On my second session I felt more relief on my knee. I even felt some movements & pulsing on my knee and an instant sense of relief of pressure on it. I am so grateful for her help & her kindness! Gabby N., Irvine, CA

Healing Energy

“This is an update from my original review that some of my family & friends have highly recommended Kayt & had wonderful experiences with her work. After my session I would have to agree. A session with Kayt is like floating through the sky on a giant feather down marshmallow. Her hands accurately move from place to place releasing light & healing.
As she moves on the light energy remains doing its work. I felt the warmth & energy working for 15-30 minutes after she has stopped in each spot. At a few points I wondered if she had 4 hands & guessed that maybe Jesus had stopped carpentry & joined her in Carnio Sacral treatments. It’s a wonderful experience like a deep healing rest, I highly recommend her work.” Zo B. – Dana Point, CA

“Kayt is very gifted and professional… After half an hour something shifted for my neck, jaw, and thoracic areas.  I have appointments with Kayt every so often for my health. She is a healer, my mind and body are calmer.”  Emily, Massage Therapist

“Kayt has such a loving touch and a gift. Her hands went to areas of my body that I didn’t even tell her were hurting. I feel lighter and I believe it may help my Chiropractor adjust me at deeper levels b/c my muscles are more relaxed.” Kristy B., Laguna Hills, CA

Kayt is wonderful.  She has a gentle touch and a caring soul.  You are in very good hands when working with her.  I’m very pleased with my sessions this far. Dr. Burton W, Chiropractor, San Clemente, CA

I could feel my energy moving. I moved from Alpha to Delta! Pamela H., Atlanta GA

Cellular Detox with Cranio

“I came with pain in my lower back and neck, found some relief, but also my liver/pancreas started detoxing. My 2nd visit I received more relief with back/neck and received strong re-calibrations for my auditory system, spleen, bladder, heart and gallbladder. Cranio detoxes at the cellular level. Before Kayt, I had 60 blockages and restrictions in my energy, blood, and lymph. After 4 sessions I have only 20 blockages.” Shel G., Mission Viejo, CA

Neck & Back Pain Relief

I had my first session with Kayt today and she is AMAZING! She is so warm and kind, and made me feel super comfortable and at ease. Her hands are gentle, but so powerful! It felt like they were literally moving through my muscles and dissolving the tension away. It felt like my neck and face were melting like butter right into her ultra soft hands. I released lots of tension as well as some emotional tears and walked away feeling much lighter. Kayt is an Angel with a true gift. Highly recommend! Alicia G., Newport Beach, CA

“I have been receiving Craniosacral therapy with Kayt Hughes for a few weeks now for chronic neck, shoulder and back pain. I highly recommend her as it has been such an awesome experience for me. I feel so relaxed, balanced and pain free when I leave her treatments.
I look forward to going to my therapy as I have suffered for so long with this chronic pain. Kayt is gentle and calm and empathetic to my pain.” Donna W., Newport Beach, CA

“I’ve been receiving Cranio Sacral for decades. What a find Kayt is! She has a profound connection to healing energy. My chronic back issue is gone! My elbow is healing! Highly recommend her.”
Dr. Janice Fletcher, CA

I felt bubbling sensations come in waves to relax my tight back. My chest muscles released restrictions and I was able to breath easier. My knee and thigh also released. Guido Bassi, Sicily

Virtual Appointments

Patients occasionally request virtual appointments if they live out of state or a distance away. Text 530.999.3024 for more information.

I’ve been having regular visits with Kayt and her Cranio Sacral magic for my back and neck.  During Covid she offered “Virtual” visits.  I took her up on her offer and found that my back pain reduced from a 6 to a 1-1/2 or 2. When I muscle test the difference of being treated in person or “virtually” I find that the effectiveness of healing energy is only reduced by about 3% to 5%.  I’m very grateful and pleased with these results. Shel G., Mission Viejo

Kayt has helped me with chronic neck and back pain as I need it. We were unable to meet in person so she suggested a virtual session. I was happy for the relief I received much to my family’s surprise! Pamela K, Laguna Niguel, CA

Pain & Injuries

Kayt is an extremely intuitive and gifted therapist that I can, without reservation, highly recommend to anyone seeking relief from any type of discomfort.
For me, Kayt has helped relieve chronic burning nerve pain as a result of a severed nerve that occurred during a dental implant five years ago, and, more recently, has aided in my recovery following shoulder and bicep surgery.
I am very grateful to have her in my life! Dr. Donna W, Biofeedback Specialist, Laguna Niguel, CA

I was at the beach and jumped into the sand and landed on a buried rock and twisted my ankle. The doctor said I had a sprained ankle and minor to soft tissue injury. I’ve had three sessions with Kayt who is calming with a gentle touch. During my sessions my swelling had lessened and calmed down. Then I noticed that pain subsided substantially. The second visit I noticed healing pulsing sensations. I’m very grateful for my Cranio Sacral Therapy! Debbie B., San Juan Capistrano CA

My left shoulder had to have surgery because of a fall I had. I was doing massage and physical therapy and Kayt asked if I wanted to compare the healing of Physical Therapy to Cranio Sacral? I said “Yes, why not”? I found that the Cranio Sacral was a little more healing with less pain. Live and Learn 🙂 Sophia B, Laguna Niguel, CA

I’ve been to Chiropractors, acupuncturists, and been on pain meds for years, not to mention the money I spent on massage therapists.  

When Kayt told me about Cardio-Cranio-Sacral healing, I was intrigued and could not wait to try it. It is amazing how our body is capable of self healing, So that’s basically what happened in nutshell after a few sessions.

Living with pain for years as a disabled veteran with multiple military related injuries as a result of being an Airborne Ranger and a Marine with a few deployments under my belt. Throughout my time in the service, I lost an inch and half from my height, due to compressed spine, and four military related surgeries, and suffering the aftermath of the military’s wear and tear on my body.

To date, to say the least, there’s hope and progression in my healing process. My visits with Kayt were most productive and advanced my healing process. I love the private office, nice location, and  always being quickly processed in and out with no wait time. The entire process was painless and to my surprise it worked beyond my expectations.

I’ve been tried other healing methods, however, never have I noticed such results at this rate. I saw results after the first visit, I was really surprised at how my body was in tune and how quickly it responded to the healing.

I realize that with my physical and mental military traumas, I will never be fully recovered, or pain free. However, I can attest that there is improvement beyond my expectation. The sessions with Kayt greatly contributed to less pain, less pain medications, which translates to me being more active and doing the things I enjoy and love. Like taking my dog for walks, and the park. I can spend more time outdoors and moving around, where as I was always at home limited due to my pain and discomfort. Thank you Kayt. Wally, L, Marine, Airborne Ranger

Insomnia & Stress

Kayt has a gift. Consider yourself lucky if you live in the So Cal area and have access to her services. I’ve worked with her in multiple occasions and received profound harmony in my body/mind. Most recently I saw her for insomnia. During my session I felt a great deal of stress rearrange itself and leave my body. I also had an emotional release. I was sleeping normally a day later. If you’re considering Cranio Sacral there is no one better than Kayt to start your healing with. Chris G. Mission Viejo, CA

Babies, Children & Students

My daughter was having problems with her back and neck and had visited the chiropractor but was needing a little more help. After her session she was a happy camper as the Cranio therapy helped her body unwind and come back into a balanced happy place. Paula G., Costa Mesa, CA

Kayt has been wonderful to work with!! My injuries from sports are finally healing and I have my mobility back! She also helped me understand what is going on in my body and educated me on ways to help improve healing at home! Mia W, Austin, TX

Hi Kayt! You have such a beautiful gift. After my son’s first session he was calmer straight away and had a great nights sleep…….he has never slept so soundly!  He still has his tics, and is still his spirited self of course:) I am noticing that he is much more able to verbalize his needs. We’ve been doing school work this morning, he requested a snack when he felt himself getting frustrated. He has also remained calm when I have to tell him no or redirect his attention…..where he would normally fly off the handle.  I’m so happy to see these changes in him and look forward to seeing what healing his next Cranio Sacral session reveals. Angela R., San Clemente, CA
