Working with
Christine
FEELING MORE COORDINATED, BALANCED, CENTERED, FLEXIBLE & ENERGETIC is possible.
The modalities I specialize in focus on regulating your autonomic nervous system & deepening your relaxation experience.
We go beyond traditional massage and bodywork by using the language of the nervous system. In doing so, you learn to meet your body differently.
​
We utilize your Breath to meet your discomfort which grows your body awareness and empowers you to move, nourish & support yourself in a way that radiates out in all that you do.
​
These practices are rooted in the classical teachings of Dr. Ida Rolf and informed by my own story and experience.

​
HELPING YOU BOUNCE BACK INTO A LIFE THAT MAKES YOU smile IS MY heartfelt intention.
"Christine worked miracles with my back and hip issues. I was intimidated by the idea of myofascial massage, but when I met her, I was instantly put at ease. She was so sweet and understanding about my problem areas and my wish to fix them and explained the process to me perfectly. Christine created a plan that was just right for getting my body back in balance and getting me back into my workouts without constant pain. She implemented the plan, and before I knew it, my body began changing, and my pain diminished. Not only do I feel better, but I have also gained much knowledge about my body’s habits and how to prevent and correct them so I don’t revert back to my previous path of inflammation and injury. Thanks, Christine, for bringing me back to my best self!"
