Healing Pain, Reducing Inflammation, and Losing Weight Starts with Your Nervous System

A message from Katie Cenkus, Pain & Weight Loss Coach in Grantham, New Hampshire

If you’re living with daily pain, inflammation, fatigue, or weight that just won’t go down, no matter how hard you try, you’re not alone. 

I’m Katie Cenkus, a pain recovery and weight loss coach based in Grantham, New Hampshire, and I help women reconnect with their bodies, reduce chronic symptoms, and finally lose weight so they can feel healthy, strong, and confident again.

My approach is different from traditional dieting or medical “try this pill and see if it helps” advice.
My work is rooted in mind-body medicine, nervous system regulation, somatic tools, emotional healing, and anti-inflammatory living.

Real healing happens when you work with your body, not against it. 

Why I Became a Pain & Weight Loss Coach

I know what it’s like to live in a body that feels unpredictable. For years, I struggled with headaches, neck pain, and low back pain. I exercised. I stretched. I saw doctors, chiropractors, and physical therapists. I took supplements. I did everything “right”, but still felt stuck. I never knew when symptoms would flare and disrupt my entire life.

When pain affects your life, it affects everything. Your energy, your mood, your ability to show up for your kids or grandkids, your hobbies, your relationships, and your joy. It's not uncommon for anxiety and depression to latch onto symptoms. 

And when you have pain, movement becomes harder. You know you should exercise, but every time you do, you know you might have to pay for it later. 

Once I discovered the science of the brain, emotions, the nervous system, and stored trauma, everything changed.

My pain went down.

My anxiety calmed.

I felt like myself again.

Now, I help other women experience that same freedom.

What I Do: A Holistic Approach to Pain, Inflammation, and Weight Loss

As a pain coach and weight loss coach in Grantham, NH, I specialize in helping women who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or discouraged finally get results that last.

Here’s how I support my clients:

Pain Reprocessing & Somatic Healing

Pain is not a life sentence. The medical system often labels conditions as “chronic” when they simply don’t have a medication or surgery that can fix them.

But pain can change when the brain changes.

Using Pain Reprocessing Therapy, somatic experiencing, emotional work, and nervous system tools, I help you retrain your brain out of pain and calm the patterns that keep your body tense and inflamed.

Anti-Inflammatory Nutrition (Without Diet Culture)

You don’t need restrictive dieting or counting macros to feel good again. I find that most women feel more anxious when they start tracking foods.

I’ll help you simplify food, reduce inflammation, enjoy eating, and trust your body again. I use a supportive, shame-free approach that helps you feel calm and in control, even around foods that you haven't been able to have in the house before.

Strength, Movement & Gentle Exercise

You don’t need hours at the gym or tons of equipment to feel strong.

I use Pilates, yoga, low-pressure strength training, walking, and mobility work to help you rebuild confidence in your body without fear.

Reconnecting with exercise in a way that feels easy and light can transform your relationship with both movement, weight, and pain.

Emotional Healing & Nervous System Regulation

Your body stores emotions like stress, fear, shame, grief, past trauma, societal pressures, and perfectionism. Healing the emotional root of chronic pain and weight struggles is the missing piece for so many women.
