Therapeutic Body Work

In 2011, I decided I wanted to venture out into a new career. I wanted to help others with their health in some way. With the guidance of God, I landed on massage, back when the Yellow Pages were still in use.  I had always had a soft spot for massaging friends shoulders and scalp. I thought, "Why not become trained to do something I enjoy?" During school, I became aware within the 2nd week, of the talent I didn't realize I had.

In 2011, I decided I wanted to venture out into a new career. I wanted to help others with their health in some way. With the guidance of God, I landed on massage, back when the Yellow Pages were still in use.  I had always had a soft spot for massaging friends shoulders and scalp. I thought, "Why not become trained to do something I enjoy?" During school, I became aware within the 2nd week, of the talent I didn't realize I had. Teachers raved, that its not often for students to develop a sense of emotional safety net with clients. It was a rarity I was proud to continue to develop. After graduating at the top of my class in November of 2011, I went on to become certified thru the state of California. I am a Certified Massage Therapist, certified by the California Massage Therapy Council (CAMTC.org).  I am also a member of the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA). I have grown committed to supporting people of all walks of life, to eliminate Acute and Chronic pain using medical massage techniques. Massage to me, is no longer a pampering treat. But an essential part of our health and wellness. I truly enjoy feeling strands of muscles, and feeling the release of connective tissue that has been stiff and creating pain issues for me clients. It is such a joy to see and hear the relief clients feel during treatment, and after. I look forward to providing my clients with the best medical massage therapy I can provide.

This was my first experience having a lymphatic massage. I had cosmetic surgery on my face and my surgeon suggested it would help wirh my healing journey. I feel so blessed that I found Christina Alvarez. I had the best experience. She was so skilled and my experience was amazing. I am going to continue these treatments through my Facial healing process . I felt so comfortable and relaxed...I can't wait to see her again next week.

I received a post-op lymphatic drainage massage by Christina and felt like I was in very capable hands. She is very professional, knowledgeable and patient with all the questions I had. I felt relieved to know the areas of concern were not only normal, but easily addressed. I left feeling relaxed and very much taken care of. I would highly recommend Christina for all the services she has to offer. I'm looking forward to my next session.

Christina has magic hands! I didn’t know what to expect coming into my appointment, but I left feeling like a new person, and I still feel the effects days later. She was informative, incredibly warm, kind, welcoming, gentle, and educated me on things to do to alleviate my issues at home moving forward. I learned so much from her in a short window and have been implementing what she taught me in my daily routine. Highly, highly recommend!

Christina listens and always fixes me. I cannot say enough good things about her. I know when I have an appointment with her I am going to leave feeling so much better.

Christina was great. She’s very kind and her massage was excellent. She got all those kinks out with the perfect amount of pressure. Would definitely recommend!
