Kristina Karlin

My name is Kristina Karlin, and I have spent most of my life living in Amador County.

Massage therapy has been a passion of mine since childhood. I was inspired by my grandfather, a professional massage therapist who owned and operated his own practice throughout much of my upbringing. My appreciation for the healing benefits of massage deepened after becoming a mother and witnessing firsthand the positive impact therapeutic touch had on my daughter. This experience motivated me to pursue formal training in massage therapy and expand my understanding of how massage can benefit people of all ages and backgrounds.

I earned my certification from the National Holistic Institute and have since developed experience in a variety of therapeutic modalities. Swedish massage serves as the foundation of my work and is thoughtfully integrated into many of my sessions. I am also trained in Shiatsu and reflexology, and I bring a strong intuitive awareness to identifying areas of tension and imbalance within the body.

I believe the body is an incredible, self-healing system that naturally seeks balance and wellness. My goal is to provide a personalized, restorative experience that supports each client’s physical comfort, relaxation, and overall well-being.

Chiropractic Adjustment

Chiropractic Adjustments are utilized to ensure a great connection between your brain and your body. Physical, Chemical and Emotional stresses are cumulative in effect, they diminish your brains ability to adapt to the world around you. The greater the stress the greater the loss of communication and greater the potential for loss of function, pain and disease. At Achieving Balance Chiropractic we use the adjustment style most fitted for the person in front of us. It may be a traditional manual adjustment, drop-table adjustment, Activator tool, Sigma Instrument (computer assisted adjustment) or a combination of one or more of these techniques.

Neuropatholator

The Neuropatholator is a gentle, non-invasive scan that measures how well your nervous system is functioning. By detecting areas of abnormal nerve activity along the spine, it helps identify stress, inflammation, or imbalance that may be interfering with your body’s ability to heal and function properly.
