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.
