Specialized Expertise in Scar Healing and Post-Surgical Recovery
Christina's practice focuses on addressing the challenges associated with scar tissue, including tightness, discomfort, and restricted mobility. Utilizing modalities such as Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) and LymphaTouch®, she helps clients improve circulation, reduce swelling, and enhance the appearance and function of scars.

Beyond scar therapy, Christina emphasizes a holistic approach to healing that supports the body's natural detoxification processes and immune function. By stimulating lymphatic flow, her treatments aid in reducing inflammation, alleviating pain, and promoting overall health.
