Testimonials
“As an Integrative Medicine physician, I know the many benefits of therapeutic massage, and I also know that the quality of the practitioner can make all the difference. One of my patients with a difficult muscular condition told me how much he benefited from Christie’s massage, so I decided to try it myself. I have had many massages by different people, but I must say that Christie’s massage is one of the most genuinely therapeutic that I have ever had. Muscular limitations and pain resolved substantially after her deep tissue and myofascial release treatments, so it is much more than just relaxation. I do a lot of bike riding and weight lifting, so I notice a significant improvement in my recovery times when I get Christie’s massage. Athera Soul offers such great value, that it makes it affordable for me to go frequently, which really increases the therapeutic benefit. I highly recommend getting one of their packages, as I notice more benefit when I go frequently.”
