HOW IT WORKS
Restorative Therapy & Wellness With Sara McRae
My integrative approach blends Traditional Chinese Medicine, posture alignment, bodywork, and the modalities of Energy Kinesiology and HigherCx Restorative Facilitation.
As individuals engage with these patterns, they may gradually move from a stress-response mode toward greater resilience and presence, helping you step out of stagnation into more integrated, balanced experience.
​
I’ve moved beyond skepticism, and the belief that body and mind are separate. Even when healing techniques “look funny” because they’re thousands of years old, come from other cultures, or work with systems of the body I can’t see, my healing philosophy is simple: “Show me what works and I’ll do that."
HigherCx Restorative Facilitation
is a modality that assists participants in noticing and shifting stuck patterns in the nervous/energetic system. Using muscle testing, movement, and awareness, it supports coherence, energetic balance, and increased capacity for integration.
Touch For Health Energy Kinesiology
involves simple yet powerful stress management techniques and a holistic process to align you with your goals, making even the most challenging aspirations feel within reach! Many people notice meaningful shifts in a short period - such as increased clarity, ease in movement, or renewed motivation as sessions support alignment between body, mind, and energy.​
Your Personal Growth & Goals
At the heart of our journey together lies your unique vision for personal growth and success. We will focus on whatever is most important to you, whether you seek healing, attracting what you desire, overcoming challenges, or aligning with your true purpose. Consider me your ally, guiding you through this transformative process with dedicated bodywork.
HigherCx Restorative Facilitation and Energy Kinesiology offer a fun and enlightening path to self-discovery. I would love to assist you in tapping into your potential and reclaiming your vitality.
WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
A Unique Approach
My holistic approach sets me apart from other therapists. Drawing on over 50 years of development within Energy Kinesiology and Traditional Chinese Medicine, my approach works with the muscular, nervous, and energetic systems. The process involves activating and coordinating muscle function through reflex techniques and supporting the natural flow of energy (‘chi’) throughout the body.
Using muscle testing as biofeedback, we explore areas of tension or imbalance in physical, emotional, or energetic systems. Corrections are then offered that match your body’s feedback and preferences. Techniques may include acupressure, gentle manual work, movement, metaphorical imagery, and supportive bodywork. This blend of methods is oriented toward reducing stress, improving coherence, and supporting your overall sense of flow and presence.
My sessions are interactive, requiring your cooperation and feedback. You'll notice real-time results, including greater comfort, ease, range of motion, and improved energy levels and mood.
Releasing Stress Patterns
​​I am passionate about empowering individuals to overcome limiting patterns and stress. Through HigherCx Restorative Facilitation and Energy Kinesiology, participants often notice release of tension, awareness of deeper patterns, and increased ease in responding to life’s challenges.
My Healing Philosophy
I believe that growth and integration can be joyful, embodied, and deeply personal. You are whole, you are not broken, and healing is not about fixing but about reintegrating - bringing all the parts back into coherence.
You are the authority in your own journey. My role is a facilitator, guiding you in noticing, sensing, and shifting with respect, choice, and partnership.
Self-Awareness is key.
Please note: I am not a medical doctor. I do not diagnose, prescribe, or treat medical conditions.
I will not tell you what you “should” or “should not” be doing. That’s up to you!
​
I maintain non-judgement and alignment as I focus on you, your story, the stress you are experiencing, and most importantly how you want to feel and function better. The focus is on the positive potential, not the symptoms.
My hope is that you feel supported in experiencing your potential, vitality, and joy in life.
Client Stories
“The positive energy of healing I’ve experienced makes my heart smile! Makes me feel so hopeful for my active future ahead of me!”
Tiffany H
“I can now turn my head without a certain muscle pulling me back. I didn’t think that was possible. I am gaining hope for things I had given up on and still learning things I can do at home… I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!!!”
Sandy W
“I love Sara McRae! After months of dealing with post-op ACL surgery pain, Sara was able to get my entire body back to normal. I had kinks that I didn’t even know existed. I am now pain free and walking correctly with better range of motion. Definitely book your next appointment here!”
Shay W
“No one has helped me with my pain and my stress as much as she has in just a few sessions. I feel like it’s easier to do the things I want, not only physically but emotionally, too. I am looking forward to more balancing with Touch For Health!”
Sandy W
“Sara is amazing! Great therapist and she also helped me with my jaw that has long been a progressive and painful experience. One treatment and I can absolutely say with conviction that it hasn’t felt this good in a very long time! Years! THANK YOU Sara!!!”
Grace F
“Sara clearly knows her craft (or should I say ‘art,’ because she is an artist). My body feels vibrant and buzzing (the best way I can describe it), after a visit. And she takes the time to know how she can best help. Utterly personable, fantastically gifted, fun, funny, and probably underpriced. Couldn’t recommend any higher.”
Joseph B
I absolutely recommend Sara for anyone who has muscles or pain. She has helped me and I know she can help you!”
Andrea K
“Sara checked my whole body and found out what the main reason was for my pain and we have worked through it for permanent relief. I highly recommend her – she is the BEST!!!!”
R. Cleary, LPC
“Post-tax season massage appointment with Sara. She has the magic touch!!! Worked all the latent tension right out of my body! And she knows that various issues with one’s muscle groups can relate to certain issues in one’s life, and addressing those “energy traffic jams” just adds to the effectiveness of the session! Thank you Sara, you are awesome!!!”

Sara's Background
Sara graduated from Oregon School of Massage in 2004 and earned her Touch For Health Kinesiology Instructor certification from the International Kinesiology College in 2015.
​
Before transitioning into the health and wellness field, Sara was a business professional with experience in leadership, operations, and continuous improvement. She was a sedentary work-aholic, dreaming of a way to feel good and enjoy life.
​
Sara is an open-minded skeptic who never thought she’d be working with energy medicine. She runs marathons with little emphasis on actual training and more emphasis on her Energy Kinesiology techniques, and she is a huge fan of naps. She is quick to laugh, and doesn’t take life too seriously.
