As long as I can remember, I have been interested in how the body truly works. Early on I realised the connection between the physical, emotional and mental aspects of our beeing.
... And I've spend the last 20 years working as a holistic practitioner and coach, trying to constantly find new puzzle pieces, go deeper and see the whole picture.
A big part of my work is working with myself and on myself with hands-on techniques. I want to feel my best and help others to do the same.
I belive it all start within you and that we can only heal others to the extent we healed ourselfs.
Self-care is never sellfish - it's an investment in your health - and that will affect other parts of your life to; like work, relationships and the connections you create.
In CHIA Academy I give you the tools to give yourself a luxury self-care ritual that affects your health, skin and mood - in as litte as 2-20 minutes a day!
The rituals can also be used once a week for a longer session - think about it as a relaxing yoga class - but with massage and somatic practicies!

This is My Story
Ten years ago I was overworked and tired.
I did not have healthy boundaries and I cared deeply about my clients....
I often worked 50+ hours a week with clients and they got great results... But I completely forgot about myself.
After years of neglecting myself, I decided it was time to change and put myself and my own health first.
At the time I was overbooked for six months ahead — so I did not have time for lengthy sessions.
I had to start small... And for someone that's always ALL IN... That was freakin' hard.
I started creating 2–20 minute routines that I could do no matter how little time I had. The changes came fast.
I started to fall asleep faster and slept through the whole night — No more twisting and turning until 2 am, with hundreds of thoughts racing through my mind...
I also started to get compliments for my skin and clients asked me if I had switched products (and wanting the same for their skin). The truth was not in the products. The only thing I had added was the daily massage.
I felt I was onto something huge — and I had to share it with my clients.
I started to make self-care tips and practices into a bigger part of my offerings and my clients' results skyrocketed. Now they had techniques they could use in between sessions. The combination of self-care massage and my treatments was MAGIC — It felt like 1+1=3.
After doing my self-care for some time, I realised that A LOT of things had shifted.
I valued myself more. I put up healthy boundaries. My mood was better.
Sure, I did a lot of inner work too, but the physical aspect of massaging myself released so much.
I realised I wanted to dive deeper into this. At the time, around 2017, there was not a great selection of massage tools out there. The ones that were available were of poor quality, had the same shapes, were packaged in an ugly plastic bag and came without instructions.
I loved what the tools could help me achieve, but I felt ashamed every time I showed my clients the miscoloured tool in the plastic bag.
So one day I thought "If there's not a brand that offers the tools I want, I must create it myself. How hard can it be?"
....Much harder than I thought!
After over a year with many late nights, contacting countless factories, testing hundreds of different tools, designing packaging, instruction cards and more, I finally launched my own product line CHIA Holistic Beauty & Massage in January 2019.
FINALLY I had beautiful tools of high quality, nice packaging and instructions on how to use them.
Selling became fun again, and my clients loved my new tools!
But as someone who always wants to improve, grow and think outside the box, the idea of a tool in my own design grew stronger. With more shapes on the gua sha tools, I would be able to use them for more specific work.
I could never have imagined how much difference it actually made.
I quickly realised that 5 minutes with my own gua sha design gave much better results than 15 minutes with a simpler gua sha tool. That's exactly why I have designed 20+ more tools since 2019. I love that each tool is specialised in treating different concerns and areas of the face and body.
Except for the relaxation, general health and skin benefits, I also started to put together routines and rituals for very specific concerns with amazing results.
Headaches for example, is deeply personal to me:
When I found the right techniques for my recurring headaches, the stress over when the next one would hit stopped. Instead of suffering from headaches several times a week, they became very, VERY rare.
And when I felt the first sign of a headache, I knew exactly what to do and in a few minutes... poof it was gone.
For me, that felt like MAGIC!
Over the years I have helped 2000+ clients and students through my treatments, coaching sessions, courses and self-care rituals. I am constantly creating, exploring and growing.
Just 2–20 minutes a day can start to change your life — if you let it.

See All The CoursesMy Holistic Approach:
I always look for the root cause. Symptoms are not bad. They are simply messengers, here to teach us how to live a more authentic and balanced life.
1 — EVERYTHING happening inside the body shows up on the outside. Learning to work with your emotional and mental state as well as the flow under your skin will transform your health & skin. CHIA's massage rituals work on what's happening under the skin.
2 — The nervous system aka relaxation is number one in ALL healing. Without relaxation and felt safety in your body, you will struggle to get optimal results — no matter which method you use. CHIA's rituals help you get into the parasympathetic state where your body can start to heal.
3 — Never massage just locally — look at the whole body. For example: Lines on the forehead can be helped by specific massage under the feet, and your anger can be helped by massaging the liver area or specific liver points on the face or body.
4 — The connection between mind, body, and soul. We can treat a skin condition by working on our mindset and limiting beliefs, or release stuck emotions by working physically with massage.
5 — Working with the different layers of the body. Many therapies and courses only work with one of the layers or systems. As a result, they tend to miss the underlying causes and get stuck in symptomatic treatments and quick fixes. All of CHIA's courses have a holistic and integrated approach — made for both immediate results and long-term benefits.
