Today was my first lymphatic massage. Dona took the time to educate me as she was doing my massage so I could better understand. I would recommend her without hesitation.
Dona, has a very special and unique way about her. She makes you feel validated and truly has the mindset to train her clients up to understand how their body works. I had the lymphatic drainage massage. I came away with a very hopeful outlook for my future health, feeling light as a feather, and armed with new instructions on working on my issues. She is a nugget for sure.

Dona is so much more than a massage specialist, she is intuitive, kind, and has great energy. I look forward to our sessions and I’m comfortable with her working on me after having a major abdominal surgery. She is knowledgeable on some many topics related to holistic healing and I always learn something when I visit her. Her massages are also lovely!

So I'm not a massage fan - I've had a few in my life but I never came away from one thinking, "Oh my God, that was the best thing ever!" Well, my mind was changed when I received a lymphatic massage from Dona Lackey at Mind Body Balance KC. Not to sound dramatic, but it was life-changing.
Dona was able to tell right away when she started working on me that I walk on the outsides of my feet, that I have IBS, that I have sinus issues and that my sacrum was out of alignment due to a slip-and-fall accident decades ago. All of this she was able to determine by touch alone.
She spent over an hour pressing and pin-point touching problem areas. She also used an exercise gun, on low, to concentrate on inflamed lymph nodes, of which I had many. When she was finished with me, I felt lighter, like I had lost a few pounds.
Then she educated me on how to properly walk on the entirety of my feet. I'm now very conscious of how I walk because it's so easy to go back to the way I was walking. Anyhow, I can already tell how the change in my walking gait is affecting my daily life. I went to my Saturday morning bootcamp and realized I was using muscles I don't normally because of the way I stood and planted my feet. Even my shoes feel different on my feet!
I can't say enough great things about Dona. She's very knowledgeable about the human body. She knows exactly what to do to improve your quality of life - all without the use of drugs.
Schedule an appointment with her - you'll be a believer like I am now!

Dona is in tune with muscle work and has honed her craft. I went due to a sports injury and she did pressure point and stretch work during the massage - also very personable and funny!!

Dona is a master of her craft. Came to see her because I was so sore from a bout of bronchitis. Through her lymphatic drainage session the next day it had cleared everything out and my soreness was completely gone.
