About the Practitioner

Kristin Rhoades

Graduate from Colorado School of the Healing Arts 2004

I started my journey with massage when I was a little girl, I tended to be a "wild child" so my Mom decided to start giving me back rubs before bedtime to get me to sleep. This was a 'golden ticket' to parenting for her and of course I loved it! It became a huge sense of comfort for me from then on into adulthood, and wanted to pass on what she had given me. To have someone that you trust take care of your body with secure trustful touch was very important to me. I knew when I started massage school that it fit me like a glove.

After school I worked at spas, fitness clubs, and chiropractors' offices. I definitely found my fit working very closely with clients ailments such as chronic shoulder, hip, or neck pain that a good old 'fluffy' massage didn't relieve. Although every type of massage is helpful for the body, I have found more effective response with the Active Resistance Techniques. I love mixing it up and trying new strokes and every 'body' is different so it makes every massage a piece of art.
