​
Christina is a graduate of Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN), the World’s largest and most respected health and nutrition coaching program.
Did you know that only 3% of healthcare dollars are spent on preventive treatment? It has been proven that health coaching is a great benefit to those who seek a healthier life. A lot of us do not fully realize that every aspect of one’s lifestyle has a direct impact on physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Many people want to improve but do not know how. I saw over the years that so many of my skincare clients would benefit from dietary changes and I felt called to become a holistic health coach.
Through the IIN curriculum, I learned comprehensively about how the human digestive system works, and the biochemistry of food; the importance of family, spirituality, career, and friendships to health and wellbeing; more than a hundred theories of diet; and how to assess food habits and make positive changes. The experience also helped me hone my listening skills and ability to personalize treatments for each individual.
​
No matter what your age or skin type is, she will work with you to create an individualized plan to bring out the radiant beauty that lies within. By incorporating all her knowledge, Christina has a unique way of addressing the whole person and integrating different holistic modalities to customize the experience for each individual.
Christina's Story
My path to skin care and nutritional health coaching started because
I suffered from acne, gut issues, and more. During my teen years, I was prescribed antibiotics and creams to remove acne. In my 20's I was diagnosed with gastritis that sent me to the hospital almost every year with severe
stomach aches and pain which ultimately led to a full-blown gastric ulcer.
Later on with the help of a very knowledgeable and compassionate doctor, we realized that the excessive use of prescribed antibiotics was damaging the lining of my gut. This was the start of my journey to a new healthy lifestyle program.
In making the change it resulted in my making better food choices.
The reward was that my stomach healed and my skin became clear. My self-confidence soared. I decided it was time to take this to the world and so I got training and became a Licensed Esthetician, Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT), Certified in Manual Lymphatic Drainage (Certified Holistic Health Coach.
The aim of Revival Spa is to help my clients achieve their goal of radiant health which will be reflected in their skin, body, and mind. It is my goal to educate my clients on the importance of making healthy nutritional choices and incorporating them to fit their lifestyle so that their direct results can be experienced in how they look and feel.
​
It is my hope to be part of the journey with current and future clients, to champion their cause in achieving wellness of body and mind. In order to do this it is important that I am aware of the latest trends in the market in regards to skin and body care. I stay current by attending workshops, joining organizations in my field of interest, taking classes, and getting further certifications.
What sets Revival Spa apart from other spas is that each person's specific concerns are addressed and the best possible solutions are offered.
Having successfully gone thru my own health challenges I can honestly say
I practice what I preach and my clients can feel assured that I want the best possible outcome for them.

When a client comes in for their first initial facial appointment a full skin analysis is done along with a brief wellness consultation to determine where the person is, as far as skin routine, nutrition and lifestyle.
​
If after the initial consultation, a client and Christina conclude that additional wellness modalities are needed to help restore the skin to a healthy and glowing state, she will formulate a plan to work with the client on one.
At Revival it is a priority to follow this process, as it is a holistic practice. Revival is the place where modern meets holistic. Studies have proven that when you feel your best on the inside it radiates on the outside as well.
Christina has found with years of experience that facilitating the client in their own healing from inside out is the best approach.
