Testimonials For Cathy
Cathy is truly a gifted professional. I am an educated healthcare professional and had sought Cathy’s care following a recommendation from a naturopathic physician. I was visiting the area so I was only able to see Cathy once, but the care & knowledge she shared during the session was transformative and effective. Not only did I feel better following the session, but I was inspired and empowered to continue learning more about the mind, body, spirit, & energetics. I learned that the mingling of the 4 definitely affect one’s health and each requires attention and care to promote optimum life. Competent medical practitioners are easy to find here in America but competent & trustworthy holistic health practitioners can be unfortunately be more difficult to find. Cathy Patillo is certainly a professional I would recommend to anyone who feels they might benefit from the services described on her website.

Cathy at a Concious Journey is absolutely incredible! I’ve been to many massage therapists over the years, and tried various modalities from deep tissue to swedish to shiatsu… I have BY FAR noticed the greatest results and effectiveness with her and the cranio sacral techniques she implements. Cathy is very intuitive and exceptionally knowledgeable in her practice. I most appreciate her kind and professional tableside manner, and her willingness to explain and share her extensive knowledge. After my first visit I left her office immediately feeling so much lighter emotionally and noticed a huge difference in my stress and anxiety level for weeks after. After my second visit the results were even better. I would recommend Cathy to anyone without hesitation!

Cathy is truly one of the most gifted, gentle and compassionate healing facilitators that I have had the pleasure of encountering! The energy she exhibits is grounded, balanced and feels completely safe and nurturing. When my session was complete, I felt 20 lbs. lighter! Weights were lifted from me and released. I highly recommend Cathy!

It was so nice to meet Cathy and work with her. Initially after the session, I had a ton of energy–almost too much to sleep even! Now, I continue to visit the ‘rooms’ we created in my energy systems and open the windows. It feels great! It is very liberating and inspirational for continued growth and awareness. Cathy helped me view things in a more healthy way. She certainly has a talent!

“If you are reading this review, you are likely in the same boat I was when I came to Salt Lake City for the first time and found myself in pain and distress. Without a reliable recommendation, I began searching for a “massage” knowing that the wise and holistic healing I really needed was beyond any kind of search term or phone book phrase. With my best research skills and a good dose of intuition, I was blessed to be guided to Cathy of Conscious Journey.
Cathy is a remarkably intelligent, compassionate, comprehensively-trained and skilled practitioner. During our treatments her knowledgeable hands first explored the areas of physical pain to identify and address the anatomical injuries and inflammations. But Cathy is not simply a master of those mechanical elements of bodywork that can be taught. She is also a healer in the ways that cannot be taught. In our sessions, Cathy moved fluidly through modalities from the physical to the subtle and energetic. She is guided by a powerful, innate healing capacity that has been honed through extensive training.
In the end, I felt that Cathy did what a truly great healer does. She allowed my body and spirit to do the healing work they already know how to do. While my experience in Cathy’s hands was profound, it was the days (and weeks!) following treatment that most astonished me as the journey continued, revealing along the way my own healing capacity.

I am so grateful to Cathy for sharing her gift with me and with all her other clients, past present and future. I hope that those who need to find her, do.”My body/mind/spirit needed a hospice for release, adjustment and relaxation. Cathy has consistently opened the channels, let the breeze in to the cleanse and regenerate the spirit. She finds the core issues and works gently through them. What a fine journey it is with her help.
– Rebecca
Very unexpectedly, my session with Cathy took me back to my birth. My mother had complications and was not expected to live. It has effected my ability to have worthy emotional relationships and I have also carried around guilt and shame needlessly. Surprisingly, I did not feel rage or despair but a deep understanding. Through recognition and acceptance, I could choose to shed that primal experience. It was extremely insightful and, as a plus, very relaxing!
– Kathy Wood
Cathy’s ability to work with the body is superb, she has an innate ability to follow what you need and facilitate change. She is simply the best!
– Steve Shelton
Cathy has great energy that I really feel during her massages. She can work out the kinks better than any other massage therapist I’ve used.

Cathy - her incredible gifts of healing - and the whole of her have been such a precious gift to my life and to the lives of my family members. The first time she worked on me I knew that I had found someone really special. During the four years that I have had the gift of Cathy sharing with me and working on me, she has helped me process energetic blocks, sever the most resistant chords, heal persistent injuries and open to places of the spirit that to me are brilliant and wondrous. It was Cathy who helped me to prepare my body energetically for the possibility of becoming pregnant. And when my pregnancy was finally realized she was there to help my body and being throughout. Knowing Cathy has helped me to be a better mother to myself and through the experiences I have had with her, I have learned so much. I cannot adequately express the gratitude that I feel for Cathy, her practice and her presence.

Cathy, I often think about the wonderful therapy you gave me and all the vivid and significant imagery that came up. So awesome! The thing I noticed most after the therapy was how strong and solid my spine felt. I’m grounded to the earth’s core for sure. My spine was strengthened and energized. It really needed it. I love how the body can organize itself with the right therapy, love, and intention. Thanks for your time and energy for me. With Deepest Gratitude,

Cathy, Thanks so much for working on me last weekend. I wanted you to know that I was able to go home and sleep. I woke up the next morning, and the pain in my head was significantly less. Unwinding has had an interesting effect as well. I feel like weight has been lifted off of me. There is a certain calmness that has settled, and I’m sure it is because we helped it unwind and release some of it’s trauma. What an amazing experience. I know most practitioners believe that they are a conduit to a higher power or energy. I felt that as well. Kind of like the stage between sleep and awake where you are aware of what’s happening but you are so relaxed that you are open to experiencing a higher plain. I have no idea if that makes sense, but I just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate you.

Hi Cathy, I am sorry I have not written sooner. I am so grateful for your help. My energy has become smooth inside my body and mind. I do not have nightmares of violence any more. My mind and life are much more manageable now. I am very peaceful and relaxed. You are one of the most kind, gentle and intelligent people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Thank you for facilitating this amazing change in my life. Many blessings,
– Rob
Amazing Therapist!
Cathy is an amazing therapist, body worker and overall healer. Her wide scope of knowledge and adept skills never cease to amaze me. In addition to seeing her for routine massages and periodic cranial sacral sessions, she was recently able to ‘cure’ my back of some serious pain from a freak sporting injury. I highly recommend her to anyone interested in improving their health and well-being.
– Clayton Farr
Having a massage from Cathy is like one stop shopping. She is one of a few individuals who can draw from her many years as a massage therapist and from her expert knowledge of energetic healing techniques (several of which she also teaches) to provide an integrated and seamless experience. I have always left the table feeling relaxed, integrated and emotionally cleansed. I recommend Cathy’s services to anyone interested in a total healing experience.

When I first moved to Salt Lake I was searching for a massage therapist/reiki healer as amazing as the person I left back in Virginia. I was 4 months pregnant and desperalely in need of relief from my aches and pains. After many expensive “backrubs”, I found Cathy!! What a gem she is!! She is very professional and has an incredible ability to know what you need to feel relaxed, balanced, and free of aches and pains. She combines many techniques and therapies to give you what you need. My chronic neck and back pain has been greatly relieved thanks to Cathy. She has seen me through 2 pregnancies and had done cranio-sacral therapy for both of my children from the time they were newborns. They both trust and love her. My sister and brother-in-law come here from Chicago just to see Cathy! I just can’t say enough wonderful things about her!!
