Kristy Carlson is a licensed Massage Therapist with a Bachelor's degree in Nutrition and a Master's degree in Exercise Physiology and Nutrition.  She is passionate about health and wellness and loves to help others feel their best!  Kristy specializes in a detailed technique that assesses posture and gait and incorporates massage with stretching and vibration to reduce and eliminate trigger points to restore mobility in joints and reduce pain.  This technique focuses on one specific area of the body that is causing pain.  Pain can be greatly reduced and even eliminated in just one session.  Follow up sessions may be needed but individualized at home stretches and exercises are provided to help prevent the recurrence of pain.  With this bodywork, Kristy has had much success in relieving many aches and pains.  She is also skilled in other modalities such as Swedish, myofascial release, cupping, and deep tissue.

REVIEWS for my Bodywork, Wellness, or Coaching services

by Sandy on Jun 21
She was excellent at finding all my tight muscles and taking the time needed to work on them. I can already feel a difference after just one visit.

Kristi has helped my son after a motorcycle injury. She has been able to keep him moving after the after math of surgery and physical therapy. I am very thankful for her knowledge on how to break up the scar tissue in his leg, so he can lead a great life in HS

Kristy is the best! I have been going to her monthly for a couple years now. She is very knowledgeable and takes the time to really work on areas that need it. I always feel relaxed and pain free after my massage. Highly recommend!
