Why you need to work with a movement specialist

"Working with Christine over the past year and a half, I have been able to avoid steroid injections, lidocaine patches, and muscle relaxants. Her expertise as a certified Feldenkrais® practitioner, Pilates instructor, and strength trainer has provided me with the knowledge to connect to my core, align my spine, and to choose movements that help, rather than harm the discs in my neck that have deteriorated from arthritis. Her expertise in Pilates has helped me restore bone loss in my hips, and I have gained strength throughout my body.

Helping you harmonize your body and mind through movement therapy for a fully integrated well-being

As a movement specialist, I help people move better, feel stronger and be more confident. I specialize in helping those who have been diagnosed with chronic pain or physical disabilities to incorporate movement into their daily lives for full integration of mind body well-beingI love to explore new territories, and although we live with ourselves on a daily basis, there is always room for more discoveries.

My approach invites self-inquiry through movement. It’s a journey towards curiosity, and learning to deepen the relationship with the self and the environment. Whether this environment is a training apparatus, your working space, whether it’s a dance floor, a wheelchair or a climbing wall, I am enthusiastic about exploring  the paths that will lead you to self-empowerment and tap into your full potential.

Is movement therapy right for you? Do you recognize yourself in these situations?

  • You have injuries that don’t seem to heal or left you with some aftermath consequences
  • You suffer from back pain, scoliosis, or sciatica
  • You are dealing with pelvic pain or other chronic pain
  • You have a chronic disease (ex. : multiple sclerosis, parkinson, etc.)
  • You practice a sport (professionally or not) and the stress and discomfort interferes with your performance
  • You want to improve your performance in performing arts
If that’s the case, as a movement specialist, I can help you achieve your full potential through strength and flexibility using a comprehensive holistic approach where we harmonize Mind & Body.
