About Christina

Christina Pfitzner is a Melbourne-based certified Dr Vodder manual lymph drainage (MLD) and complex decongestive therapy (CDT) practitioner. She also holds Associate Diplomas in Aromatherapy and Holistic Massage, and Certificates for Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki, Levels 1 and 2.

Her philosophy is that we are all meant to be well and disease is dis-ease in what is happening around us.

"Part of the process of becoming well is to have a balance in your life. Most importantly, being happy within yourself and with who you are. Being around family, friends and collegues that love and respect who you are because that is who you are to them. We are so busy in our daily lives with not enough time, too many anxieties and too many stresses in our day. I like to say to my clients, 'Slow down - YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT'."

Background

Christina has always worked in the health industry. Her experience began with Dental Practice ranging from working with children in School Dental Services to working in Community Domiciliary Care.

She then moved to working in nursing homes with Alzheimer and Dementia patients. It was during this time, when talking to her friend and colleague Gloria Denton, Australia's first Dr Vodder certified therapist, that Christina felt drawn to continue her professional education as a natural therapist so that she could enhance the quality of life for patients.

This led to her interest in Vodder Manual Lymphatic Drainage and eventual qualification as a certified MLD CDT therapist. "Gloria is a pioneer in her field and I have not looked back since my introduction to Natural therapies in 1990."

Christina was a Melbourne representative for the Australian Vodder Therapists Association and one of its founding members.

Vodder Manual Lymphatic Drainage therapists are required to be re-certified every two years.
