History

Established in 1992.

in 1990, I was the owner of a small metaphysical bookstore that was going under and I didn’t know what to do next. My friend;s said «Kristina, you are such a good healer, why don’t you become a massage therapist»? I thought, why not, enrolled in a massage school and six months into the program, discovered I had the stamina and skills to become a good massage therapist.

As soon as i finished massage school, I was laid off my sales job and got work in some spas in Calistoga. I worked at various spas, built up my private practice and got a lovely massage studio here in San Rafael.

Just as I was establishing my practice, I wrenched my back and couldn’t stand up straight. Thanks to chiropractic and various forms of bodywork, I was totally healed. It then became my mission to put people out of pain by studying many forms of advanced bodywork which I continue to do today.

Kristina L.

Business Owner

I was always a tactile person and explored my world through touch. I majored in fine art in college because I loved to work with my hands and express myself through my hands. After college, I attended the Berkely Psychic Institute and graduated from their program as a reader and healer. At the Institue, I developed very strong proprioceptors in my fingers and an innate ability to pinpoint pain in a body and remove it.

Today, as a masage therapist and healer, my clients are always amazed at my ability to find the exact spot of their pain and remove it. In addition to my massage work, I also offer energy work sessions and readings and offer sessions combining energy work and bodywork.
