| Krysia Schwab is a licensed
massage therapist certified by the NCTMB, licensed by the
State of Illinois, and a member of the AMTA (American Massage
Therapy Association). She also holds her Reiki Mastery
Certificate.
Growing up in Dublin, Ireland, Krysia was surrounded by Holistic
healers and spiritual people. Her mother and Aunts received
acupuncture treatments while her grandmother relied heavily
on herbal supplements and remedies to help cope with diabetes.
From an early age, she learned to deal with ailments and stress
through nutrition, meditation, and energy healing. She
received her first Angel and Reiki treatments at an early
age from her Aunt Pauline, a Reiki Master and Krysia’s
current mentor. It was this same aunt who noticed Krysia’s
natural intuition, empathy, and ability to heal and encouraged
her to seek out a healing program.
Krysia then attended the Sanctuary School of Massage Therapy
and Energy Healing. She graduated in 2005 as the class
Valedictorian, was awarded with the Dean’s Award for
exemplary performance, and received her certificate in the
Reiki Mastery Program. She is also certified in several
other healing arts, including Reflexology, Cranial Sacral
Therapy, Hot Stone Therapy, and Deep Tissue Massage.
She continues to advance her studies, including a focus on
prenatal massage.
A strong spiritual understanding guides Krysia through her
life. Although educated in Christian schools, she was
heavily influenced by her Celtic heritage and its culture
of healing, spirituality, and reliance on intuition.
At a very young age she visited the spiritual grounds of Stonehenge,
Druid’s Circles, and Newgrange. She was also introduced
to Buddhism and other Eastern religions by her father, who
studied in India and brought home stories of Eastern philosophies,
culture, diet, and art.
Understanding the importance of working mind as well as body,
Krysia incorporates relaxation techniques, spiritual guidance,
and massage therapy to help clients deal with chronic pain.
Besides the physical relief it can bring, massage therapy
and energy healing can have a major impact on emotional symptoms
such as anxiety, depression, stress, and self-esteem.
She has found that long term healing and happiness, for both
her and the client, can be attained through Holistic avenues.
