MEET CHRISSY 
- Owner of Life and Mind Massage

Hello, I'm Christine - when we meet though, you'll most likely hear me introduce myself as Chrissy.

​

My journey into massage therapy began after leaving a corporate, desk-bound career. In searching for stillness and a little more balance, I discovered the profound effect massage could have on the body and mind. How it could ease physical tension, quieten a busy mind and create space to simply be. That experience became the foundation of my work and my desire to create a space where others could feel deeply supported and cared for.

​

Over the years, my approach to massage has continued to evolve through experience, ongoing learning and the many wonderful people I've had the privilege of treating. During a treatment, I draw on both my knowledge and something a little more intuitive - a quiet connection that naturally weaves into the way I work and guides each session.

​

My approach to treatment

I'm trained in a range of massage therapies, including Remedial, Deep Tissue, Lymphatic Drainage, Pregnancy, Abdominal and Therapeutic Relaxation Massage.

​

Rather than following a set routine or relying on just one technique, I draw on my training, knowledge and 15 years of hands-on experience to create a treatment that is individual to you. Sometimes that means working more deeply into areas of muscular tension; other times, it may call for a gentler approach, focused on relaxation, movement, breath and allowing the body to soften.

​

I consider what your body needs on the day, how you're feeling and what you'd like to get from your treatment. It's this combination of clinical knowledge, experience and intuition that shapes the way I work.

​

A little about me

I smile when a client's arm gently drops beside the table - a subtle little sign of surrender into deep rest.

​

I'm a proud mum to my son, who found his way to me after nine rounds of IVF. That journey continues to shape my empathy and appreciation for resilience, compassion and the importance of feeling supported.

​

Outside the treatment room, I like to keep things simple, nourishing myself with simple foods and choosing movement that feels right for my body on the day. I love to explore in nature and go camping. I donate blood and plasma often (it’s a beautiful lifesaving gift to give) My go-to snack is boiled egg or a spoonful of crunchy peanut butter. I prefer a cold coffee over a warm coffee.

​

Life and Mind Massage continues to grow and evolve in ways that make me proud. What remains at the heart of it all is creating a space where you can slow down, breathe, feel comfortable and reconnect with yourself.

​

I'm so glad you've found your way here.
