Kaci is a licensed clinical massage therapist and the founder of Staunch Therapeutics, based in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Her approach is built on a simple belief: bodywork should never back down from finding the root cause of pain. She specializes in Deep Tissue, Active/Static Cupping, and Myofascial Release Techniques, and holds certifications in Myofascial Cupping, Myofascial Decompression Cupping Levels 1 & 2, Myofascial/Neuromuscular Intra Oral Release, and is an M1 Graston™ Provider.

Born and raised in the Midwest, Kaci's career started in athletic facilities working with professional and college athletes to improve mobility and skill performance. She assisted the 2018 IGI Gymnastics meet and the 2019 NFL Combine Development Program in Illinois. After shadowing various physical therapists and chiropractors, she opened her own massage therapy practice in 2019, only to lose it during the pandemic. Rather than step back, she pivoted into mobile massage and kept building. She moved to Virginia Beach in 2021, and from 2022 to present has built a strong reputation as a well-rounded therapist capable of working with any body that walks through the door. In the summer of 2026, adversity pushed her to finally see her true potential. Sometimes pressure is what it takes to create something worth building, and that pressure is what gave rise to Staunch Therapeutics.

Staunch carries the weight of that journey; the rough waters, staying steady during the unknown, the rebuilding, and the fight it took to get here. Kaci is grateful for every part of it. For her, this career path has never been about money or outdoing anyone else in her field. It's about staying humble and always remaining a student of the body, remembering how hard she fought to be where she is, and continuing to sharpen her craft so that everyone can win.
