"We are slowed down sound and light waves, a walking bundle of frequencies tuned into the cosmos. We are souls dressed up in sacred biochemical garments and our bodies are the instruments through which our souls play their music."
~Albert Einstein~
Who is Christena?
Born and raised in small-town southern Alberta, Christena enjoys an active life, time outdoors, and the occasional adventure.
In her early 20's Christena became interested in different approaches to health and wellness. Each book she read, and each course she attended, gently nudged her to where she is today.
What sets Christena apart?
With an open mind and never-ending curiosity, Christena has always been fascinated by the things that connect all the things. She loves looking beyond the obvious and exploring how the different pieces of our lives and bodies may influence one another.
Through years of learning and a diverse range of training, Christena has come to understand that there is rarely just one way. Every person arrives with a different story, a different body, and a different place from which to begin. She will meet you there - creating a space where you feel safe, supported and heard.
Who would benefit from Christena's treatments?
Anyone looking for something just a little bit different.
Maybe you're searching for another piece of the puzzle. Or maybe you're simply curious about your body and how everything connects.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Your body has its own story, and treatment begins by listening to it.

The above interview was recorded early May 2020 (during the Covid shut down). Many thanks to Lisa Szabon-Smith (The Hub PT) for taking the time to lead this interview as it allowed me to explain a little bit about my practice.
