       My journey started with a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology, coupled with over a decade of experience in Athletic Training. Initially, I aimed to pursue a career as an Athletic Trainer and relocate to the DFW area. However, just before my move, I was involved in a car accident. A friend suggested a massage to alleviate my pain and injuries. Upon arriving in Dallas, I scheduled a massage at ATI, which happened to be associated with a massage school. Impressed with the results, I spoke to one of the Instructors who encouraged me to become a massage therapist myself. I enrolled, and within six months, I obtained my license as a Massage Therapist.

In 2016, I began teaching at the Cortiva Institute and continued for four years. Now, with 11 years

of experience as a Licensed Massage Therapist, my expertise lies in medical massage, clinical

 massage, myoskeletal alignment, and various Swedish therapeutic techniques.

At Body Mechanixs & Well-being, my goal is to offer healing that goes beyond the surface. Remember, "When your body talks - Healing hands listen!"

Massage Therapy Instructor

In 2016 I became a Massage Therapist Instructor at Texas Center for Massage Therapy now know as Cortiva Institute. As an Instructor for the past four years which, was very rewarding.

Cortiva Institute taught me that I wasn't just teaching I also helped students change their lives, in return changed my own.

I had a total knee replacement in February 2025. I was doing well and able to walk and had completed PT. I still had swelling in my right knee. Charlene was recommended by a friend. She did lymphatic drainage therapy massage on my right leg, then regular muscular massage. When I got up from her table, my leg felt like it did 10 years ago. She showed me how to massage the lateral muscles on either side of my knee and I continue to feel so much better. I signed up for her membership and will be returning on a regular basis.

I had an incredible experience Charlene. From the moment I arrived, Charlene made me feel completely at ease. She is not only professional and knowledgeable but also incredibly intuitive and attentive. I left feeling so much better, relieved, relaxed, and noticeably different. There was a literal physical change in my hips after the massage. The tension and discomfort I had been carrying melted away, and I felt more aligned and mobile than I have in a long time. Her space is calming, clean, and welcoming. I highly recommend Charlene for anyone looking for true healing and lasting relief.

I had a wonderful experience with Body Mechanic & Well-being. Charlene is very knowledgeable and was able to address my overactive back pains as well as tendonitis. She communicated swiftly for last minute appointments and I highly recommend.
