Kristy Taylor
Kristy Taylor is the founder of Meraki Holistic Healings and a licensed massage therapist since 2010.
A graduate of the Bancroft School of Massage Therapy, she brings years of experience, attentive touch, and intuition to her work.
Kristy takes time to listen before tailoring each session to the person in front of her. Her offerings range from traditional massage to Reiki and signature massage experiences, with room for both physical relief and quiet reconnection. She is a Usui Reiki Master Teacher with training in Ensofic Reiki and Integrated Energy Therapy.
She created Meraki to give that spirit of care a home—a welcoming place to exhale, reconnect, and feel seen.
Kaycee Martin
Kaycee is a licensed massage therapist passionate about helping clients relax, relieve tension, and restore balance.
She graduated from the Massage Therapy Program at the Community College of Rhode Island and is currently continuing her education as a Physical Therapist Assistant student, with an expected graduation in 2028.
Kaycee takes a personalized approach to each session, creating a comfortable and welcoming environment where every client feels heard and cared for. Outside of work and school, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, traveling, being outdoors, dancing, and enjoying the beach.
She looks forward to welcoming you to her table!
Cindee Hawkins
Cindee believes that true healing comes from harmony between the mind, body, and spirit.
She brings more than 34 years of experience supporting emotional balance and inspiring creativity through her distinguished career as a Choral Director and music educator. During the latter part of her music career, Cindee discovered a deep passion for energy healing.
She went on to become a Reiki Master Practitioner and Teacher, Certified Energy Medicine Practitioner, Tong Ren Master Healer, and practitioner of Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT).
Her unique background in music, sound, energy, and healing allows her to support each person with an open heart while creating a safe, nurturing space for personal exploration, healing, and transformation.
Alysha Ballou
Alysha is a Holistic Intuitive Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in health and wellness.
Blending her background in health and fitness with intuitive practice, she creates a space for deeper self-discovery—inviting you to listen to what your body, mind, and inner wisdom may be revealing.
She holds a Bachelors Degree in Health and Fitness from the University of Rhode Island, and a Holistic Intuitive Practitioner certificate.
Through gentle guidance and open conversation, Alysha helps uncover the patterns, emotions, and beliefs that shape the way you experience yourself and your life; some of which may no longer serve you.
Alysha believes that true transformation begins with curiosity—and that the answers we are searching for are often already within us.
