About Kristine Challenor
I am a student massage therapist with a passion for functional health.
I have always wanted to work in alternative medicine and help people add a piece to their wellness puzzle. As a child, I suffered from neck and spine issues, and massage was the only treatment that worked to relieve the pain.
So when covid suddenly impacted my career and my family, I took the opportunity to go back to school for massage therapy, a dream lifelong dream of mine. It was a big change, especially as a single mother, but it was important to me to be an inspiration for my kids, to show them it just takes one step towards following your heart.
Touch is essential for the healing process, both physically and emotionally.
I love helping people experience relief from their physical pain and discomfort. I’ve learned that if we can find the underlying root issues, we are able to flush out the discomfort and create a release of symptoms, especially in the neck and back.
The body also holds a lot of emotion; massage is an incredible way to help people work through their emotions through healing touch. For clients with trauma or violence in their background, massage might be a way to experience a positive touch for the first time in a while. Working with clients to release emotions in their physical bodies allows them to move on more successfully with their psychological treatments.
I take an intuitive, individualized approach to massage therapy.
The relationship and the trust we build together as client/practitioner helps us create a treatment plan that is exactly what their body (and mind) needs. Nothing I do is prescriptive. I follow what the body tells me, I can hear the body and what it is telling me. Through this technique, I can find the root of the problem or the pattern that is causing pain or keeping the body stuck. My goal is to create a compassionate and caring environment where my clients feel safe and cared for.
I’m so happy to be sharing my passion with you finally!
I love what I do, and I’m so happy I took the leap of faith to be here, ready to take care of you and your body. My table is a safe space for you to relieve pain/discomfort or cry and work through emotions with guidance and support. I am here for you!
