Christine Gbolade

Member of the Complementary Therapists Association

Christine decided to learn Thai Yoga Massage after wanting to explore a new career path from her mundane cycle as an office administrator that was not offering her much progression.

Being creative, well travelled and free spirited she always enjoyed going to many workshops of interests, yoga retreats away and meditation meet up groups as well as spiritual events. As a hobby she would enjoy collecting and working with many kinds of crystals through meditation which offered great benefit in aiding menstrual pains & deeper relaxation.

This all eventually lead her to wanting to study within the holistic therapies which later drew her to Metta College who very much represented the style of massage she was seeking on a spiritual, mental and physical level. On completion of her therapy studies she was assessed and examined by Kira Balaskas, one of the most highly renowned Traditional Thai Yoga Massage teachers in the West.

"Since my journey with Thai Yoga massage in 2008, clients and friends have asked me what Thai massage is like, or how it differs from oil based massages. It is true that Thai massage is similar to assisted yoga, and that it goes beyond massage—it is in-depth bodywork. This form of treatment works on a deeper level for the body to assist its own self healing and not only is it relaxing but very powerful as it’s done in a spiritual manner embodying love & kindness known as Metta".

There’s a thousand ways one can describe Thai Yoga Massage, but the fact remains that descriptions just don’t capture the ESSENCE of what Thai massage really is... it is an EXPERIENCE. People that have received a Thai Yoga Massage will tell you the same thing. They will probably also tell you that you should give it a try... it’s that remarkable.

Christine is constantly developing her knowledge and experience in complimentary approaches to healing and wellbeing to integrate in her work which will benefit others.

I look forward to meeting you soon,
Warm blessings,
Namaste,
Christine
