Ben Kappel, Founder of Medicina Massage, LMT

Deep tissue, Swedish, energy work.

Ben is a Licensed Massage Therapist LA #4809. His course studies were completed in a 750 hr program at Delgado, but his approach to massage is a result of working with many talented healers who have helped him develop a holistic, integrative style that utilizes many modalities. He works with clients to achieve therapeutic experiences that range from specific focus on target areas to balancing full body treatments. Each massage is specifically customized to meet individual needs. He specializes in Deep TIssue, Reflexology, and Swedish Relaxation treatments. 


His work also draws knowledge from extensive studies in other fields such as yoga, that have deepened his understanding of proper physical alignment and function within the body. He also incorporates techniques learned from work with Shamanic practitioners that function both on energetic and physical levels. 

His interest in massage developed after he experienced profound benefits from bodywork that he received for specific injuries and misalignments. Since then, he have felt this work to be his calling. His commitment to clients stems from his desire that they feel more physically empowered and energetically restored from each massage session. He loves his work and is dedicated to helping people encounter healing experiences.

Kathleen Currie

Kathleen Currie has been fascinated by the somatic experience most of her life.  She studied at Prescott College, and graduated in 2005 with a degree in Holistic Health and Wellness.  She moved to Tucson, AZ where she nurtured her love of kinesthetic awareness and health by working as a personal trainer.  Following her deepening commitment to holistic health and bodywork she attended The Providence Institute.  She graduated in 2008 after completing a 700 hour massage therapy program.  She moved her practice to New Orleans in 2009.  Massage has been transformative for Kathleen’s understanding of her own wellbeing; assisting in everything from life’s daily stress, to injury recovery.  As a licensed and insured massage therapist, Kathleen takes great joy in her own continuing education, as well as educating her clients,  bearing witness to their own process towards more complete health.  She approaches her work with a deep reverence for the body, mind, and spirit; in the hope of passing on one of her true passions, which is a serene sense of wellbeing that we find when we tune into our own innate wisdom-our bodies!  In her own time, she enjoys receiving massages, practicing yoga, biking, travel, and fun times with friends and family in the city of New Orleans.
