Valhalla Massage
and Reflexology

 

Andre S. Francis:  "Why I holla for Valhalla"

"When love and skill work together expect a masterpiece" (Ruskin)

 

More than her knowledge, which is comprehensive and current-or her physical strength, which is essential and enduring, Christine (owner/operator) of Valhalla Massage and Reflexology is passionate about improving her clients' health.

Human, equine and canine. After 19 years of football (12 in the CFL) as an explosive bump and run cornerback and 7 years playing serve and volley Pro Am Tennis in  B.C., my body was exhausted and cells crumbling. Melancholy set in, wondering where I was to find someone professional and passionate to revitalize my cells, muscles, tissues, and sinews. In the 90's I shared former Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson's world renowned Massage Therapist Waldemar Matusuki from Poland Based in Ottawa.

In 2005 friends introduced me to Christine and was amazed at her knowledge, skill and endearment to her profession.

Now, in 2007 I am almost chronologically 46 years of age, but with her treatments in massage, reflexology, and lymphatic draining my biological age is about 27 with renewed blood flow and a never ending stream of energy which keeps me balanced and healthy. As a result, I can continue to eliminate the need for the toxic stew of prescription drugs which unneccesarily burdens the liver, kidneys, and other vital organs.

I am impressed and blessed to have met her and continue to enjoy her treatments and encouragements.

I'm a Data network and support analyst for a mid to large sized multinational company. With the responsibilities of my job, and the rapid growth we've had in the last couple of years, comes a lot of stress. That's where Valhalla Massage and Reflexology comes in.

 

Over the past year I've found the variety of massages very helpful in reducing my stress and treating those few knots and strains I get after a workout or other physical activity. The relaxing atmosphere and soothing music ease my mind as Christine works her magic to relieve me of pain and stress.

 

For general aches, pains and stress, I choose the 2-hour Relaxation massage. It's deep tissue work really gets out those knots and the pressure points ease the tension in my muscles to the point you could fall asleep it's so relaxing. Your whole body gets the attention it needs and feels great for days afterward. Every once and a while, I'll get a cold stone massage instead of the Relaxation massage to add a little energy. It's hot and cold stones that's a little like sitting in a sauna, then jumping in some snow, then back to the sauna, and so on. It's great for those times you feel a little run down, need to relax, but also need some energy. After a day, or week, of legwork, and your feet are telling enough is enough, a reflexology treatment is the only way to go. After spending a few days, all day, in malls Christmas shopping this year, my feet would ache. One reflexology appointment later, they were good as new. But it's more than just a foot massage, all the little aches all over my body from all that shopping, just seemed to disappear after the treatment. They say good footwear is key to a happy back, so if you want a happy body, you might want to start at the feet.

 

Massage is a great way to relieve stress and minor aches and pains and Christine at Valhalla massage is a master of that art. Give it a try, you won't be sorry.

Christine gives me excellent massage. I use them for stress relief and pleasure. She has a very good touch. I have had massages from various people with impressive credentials, but I have never had a better massage than the ones I get consistently from Christine.

Amazing! I feel alive and ready to take on the world. Christine you are a true healer. Thank you.

I can now accomplish the things I want to without pain. I greatly recommend you to anyone and everyone.

Through regular massage treatments, I have found my flexibility and recovery from muscle stress, much improved.

 My dogs love their visits so much that they wait for Christine at the door. I didn't want to be left out so now all three of us see her and wait at the door!
