Christie Chadwick
Licensed Massage & Bodywork Therapist
Myofascial Release Practitioner
Originally from Long Island, NY, I moved to the Leland, NC area in the fall of 2013. I began my studies in the holistic health field in 1998 at the NY College of Health Professions in Syosset, NY. Graduating at the top of my class, I found the art of massage and ancient medicine both fascinating and rewarding. The mind-body connection continues to captivate me and through continual education, and harnessing my intuition, I combine what I've learned to assist my clients on their path to whole body wellness. I focus on the John Barnes Method of Myofascial Release and Raindrop Technique.

I love finding awesome products that are safe for me to use but also that don't put a strain on the earth. Then of course, I enjoy sharing those products with friends and clients. When you click on the Mindful Living tab at the top of the page, it brings you to a list of some companies I am an affiliate for. That simply means that if you click through and make a purchase, I may earn a couple bucks to support my essential oil habit.

Testimonials

I went to Christie as a first time massage client. She was professional and caring. Her massage was amazing! I have now been to her numerous times and while traveling saw another therapist who just wasn’t Christie!! I highly recommend her. Christie is also one of the few people in this area that offers myofascial release. ~A

Christie and I met up in Sedona as she was doing one of her training’s for myofascial release. We spent the day together enjoying Sedona, and her enthusiasm and passion for not only her work as a wonderful massage therapist, but specifically for MFR is extremely contagious. Anyway, I just so happened to be experiencing a lot of discomfort and pain that normally would develop into a debilitating migraine at the time I met up with her. I was starting to get some head pain and many other symptoms related to these chronic headaches that I usually get, but it was not full-blown and it is usually inevitable that it will be. However, I was lucky enough to be able to get a treatment from Christie and I couldn’t believe how powerful MFR can be as it just felt like she was placing her hands on my head similar to Reiki or any other energy work. This was different though, I could feel different sensations happening all throughout the areas where she was placing her hands, but also there were some spontaneous, involuntary movements, which is something that is very common because the body is releasing. It was extremely relaxing despite many distractions we had and I was able to go to sleep peacefully shortly after and I woke up feeling refreshed and much better. I still had some pain, but still no actual migraine. The next day, I started to realize there was still releasing going on just as Christie said there would be. Everything felt much different than any other therapy I have ever had, and I have experimented with a lot of techniques! Basically, I know my body very well and it was still releasing after several days and it felt as if my muscles and joints were moving around and going back into alignment all on their own. I never did get a migraine and that is absolutely unheard of as I normally would have to at least take some kind of aspirin once I have the migraine and that basically helps me get through it quicker, but usually there is no escaping it even with the natural tools I usually use. Migraines have been an issue for me my whole life, and Christie helped me realize that MFR is a technique that I need in my life and something that truly does work effectively and gently. Everyone should try this, especially with Christie if you have the chance. ~D

After moving to Leland in 2013, I began to search for a practitioner of Myofascial Release Technique (MFR). I was specifically interested in a therapist who had been trained by John F Barnes, the founder of MFR. My initial experience with MFR had been at his center in Sedona, AZ where I found lasting relief from TMJ syndrome after treatment there. Therefore, I am a big believer of and advocate for MFR as a therapy to treat and heal pain. To my very good fortune, I discovered Christie Chadwick of CLC Healing Therapies in Belville, NC!!! At that time of my first consultation with Christie I was suffering from lower back pain and also enduring extreme pain from a pinched nerve in my neck. At my first appointment I realized that not only was Christie a talented therapist but also that her hands had healing powers!!! Her amazing treatments helped me recover my quality of life! Over the past five years Christie has been my go-to practitioner for relief of pain and she has been extremely helpful to me. Christie is a highly professional and ethical individual. I also appreciate her highly positive attitude and compassionate approach. I really love her treatment area which is a wonderfully serene place. I am also impressed that Christie invests time and money into ongoing professional training. Christie has also performed Reiki on me which has been very beneficial to my healing process. In addition, Christie has great knowledge of the use and benefits of essential oils and has introduced me to the wonderful Young Living oils. I highly and without reservation recommend Christie! ~D
