Sports Massage
Sports Massage targets athletes' unique needs through specialized techniques that enhance performance and accelerate recovery. This therapy prevents injuries while improving flexibility and reducing muscle soreness. Our practitioners combine deep tissue work with movement assessment to address sports-related strains and optimize physical conditioning for active individuals.
Graston Technique
Graston Technique uses specialized instruments to break down scar tissue and fascial restrictions. This evidence-based approach accelerates rehabilitation for conditions like tendonitis and plantar fasciitis. Our certified therapists apply controlled microtrauma to affected areas, stimulating healing and restoring normal function in musculoskeletal injuries.
Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy Massage addresses expectant mothers' physical and emotional needs through gentle, therapeutic techniques. This specialized treatment alleviates common discomforts like back pain and swelling while promoting relaxation. Our therapists use proper positioning and modified techniques to ensure safety and comfort throughout all trimesters.
Reflexology
Reflexology applies pressure to specific foot zones corresponding to body organs and systems. This ancient healing practice promotes relaxation while addressing conditions like headaches and digestive issues. Our certified reflexologists use precise techniques to stimulate energy flow and support the body's natural healing processes.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release targets the body's connective tissue to relieve chronic pain and improve mobility. This hands-on technique addresses restrictions in fascia caused by injury or inflammation. Our therapists use sustained pressure and stretching to restore tissue elasticity and alleviate discomfort from conditions like fibromyalgia and repetitive strain injuries.

I had a great massage with Christine. The booking process was very easy - I was able to text her which was great and schedule a time from there. She was very thorough with her intake, both with a questionnaire sent to my email and right before the massage asking what hurt, how it hurt and about my general stress levels - I found that to be very good and thorough. It was a very nice, relaxing massage!

This was a great massage. Very professional and attention to details and she focused on the areas that were tight and ached. Business is super clean. If you are looking for a Therapist that knows her work, this is the place to go! Thank you.

Christine is awesome. Very relaxing. 90 minutes fly by. If I wasn't going back to Los Angeles, I would be scheduling an appointment every month.

I have had a rotator cuff injury for three months that caused so much pain that I had trouble sleeping. After only two massage therapies with Christine not only was I able to finally sleep through the night but also my right arm had a much greater range of painless movement. Besides being an excellent massage therapist Christine also has a very kind and warm personality.

After 2 sessions with Christine getting a deep tissue massage I have felt much relief in my lower back and left shoulder. I am looking forward to more sessions.

It's a fabulous experience every time I go to Rhythm of Touch. In fact it's fabulous for my husband and 20 year old son as well, who are also clients if Christines. Christine asks all the right questions, she's professional and she performs the best massages. I have spondylolisthesis and I can't lay on my back or stomach for a massage. I'm so thankful that I have the option for a chair massage with Christine. Thanks for all you do Christine!

I have had issues with shoulder and hip pain for years and thus have gone to many massage therapists. Christine is among the best! She is great at sensing where the muscles are tense and need extra work. I highly recommend her.

She targets key points definitely knowing what's wrong and works kinks out with patients an ease. Very comfortable and relaxing setting but a great personality to go along which makes you at piece from the start to the end of the session.
