Testimonials
I came to Kristina for a Thai massage and it was amazing! Her hands are amazing and very knowledgeable and besides that, she knows how to make a safe environment, so the body can release what it wants. I usually don't like to cry in front of others, but in Kristina's care I didn't even think about feeling ashamed. I came out feeling rejuvenated, thank you for your care Kristina 💜
I loved my massage with Krisi. Her presence and touch felt super safe for me. She was acutely attuned to my body and often checked in with my needs. I could just let go and allow her to work the nooks and crannies of my body. Towards the end, out of nowhere, I just burst into laughter, a deep, belly, joyful laughter. Going through some tough times, I haven't laughed like this for some years now.. I feel very grateful for the safe, nurturing, and skillful support from Krisi. That night, I fell asleep peacefully, without my usual need to use my phone.
