Christie Kuszik, USA

Latest Massage therapist signing up for the World Championship in Massage 2023 is Christie Kuszik from USA. The International Massage Association has asked her to tell about herself:

I am Christie Kuszik a Licensed Massage therapist representing the United States of America. I moved from Nashville Tennessee to St. Augustine Florida to attend Health Builders School of Therapeutic Massage from where I proudly graduated in 1999. Choosing to stay in Florida, I built my private practice in Ormond Beach. (I do miss the country music and the best cheeseburgers but back to the world of massage).

For the past 23 years I have been immersing myself in the study of eastern and western massage and transferring them seamlessly to my clients has been my passion. My bodywork style is quite unique. Personal favorite approaches to the body are a toss up between hot stone, Esalan massage and cupping. Having a solid foundation of knowledge of various modalities (certifications in Thai, Myofascial Release, and Lymphatic massage) integrated with creativity transforms my session into an art form.

My practice is my playground. I transfer my love for massage as being a provider of continuing education dedicated to revolutionizing and leading the massage industry via innovative techniques and professionalism, to elevate our industry standards. My favorite course to teach is called the Ultimate Hot Stone Massage which combines Ayurvedic techniques with hot and cool stones, essential oils and herbs to aid in balancing the different types of doshas.

After the competition, I will launch my course in Dynamic Cupping. It has some ‘hell ya moves’ that I am excited to show the judges before making them public knowledge. I am excited to be a part of this competition to help me take that flame of enthusiasm home to the United States, where I can ignite the passion and confidence to therapists to have the same drive and motivation to restore professionalism, and pride in our industry.

Looking forward to jumping over that pond and seeing you guys in Copenhagen this summer!

The International Massage Association look forward watching Christie Kuszik skills at the 6th World Championship in Massage in wonderful Copenhagen.

I recently had the pleasure of attending a massage seminar jointly organized by IMA Academy and Chiida Academy, and I must say it was a truly enriching experience. The seminar, led by a professional instructor, was a perfect blend of theory and practice, offering valuable insights into the art of massage therapy. The theoretical aspects covered were comprehensive and informative, providing a solid foundation of knowledge for all participants. From anatomy and physiology to various massage techniques and their applications, every aspect was explained with clarity and depth. It was evident that the instructor was not only knowledgeable but also passionate about imparting their expertise to the students. What truly stood out about this seminar was the emphasis on hands-on practice. Participants were given ample opportunities to apply the theoretical concepts they had learned in a supportive and nurturing environment. The instructor's guidance and feedback were invaluable in honing our skills and techniques. Moreover, I was impressed by the caring attitude and thoughtfulness shown towards the students throughout the seminar. From providing necessary materials to addressing individual queries and concerns, the organizers ensured that everyone felt valued and supported. I would like to extend my gratitude to Mr. Jeppe Tengbjerg for his exceptional leadership in making this seminar a resounding success. His expertise, patience, and genuine dedication to the art of massage therapy were truly inspiring.In conclusion, the collaborative effort between IMA Academy and Chiida Academy in presenting this massage seminar was commendable. It was a rewarding experience that left me feeling empowered and equipped with valuable knowledge and skills. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of massage therapy or embark on a career in this field.
