Kristin Martelli graduated from Scranton High School in 1994, and briefly attended Montserrat College of Art in Beverly, MA. A tragedy in her life prompted her to become involved with alternative methods of healing to help her cope with the loss she endured. She experienced such dramatic results that she decided to apprentice with her healers and research/study other methods in order to help others. Some of those methods include but are not limited to Reiki, Shamanic Healing, Hands of Light, and Compassionate Touch. ​ In addition to maintaing a 4.0 in art, education, and art therapy classes at LCCC and Marywood University, Kristin continued to pursue her passion of the healing arts throughout the years. In 2005, she attended the Massage Academy of the Poconos for massage therapy hands-on instruction, and then graduated with honors from AMTI in 2006. Recently, she was just awarded the honor of Board Certification, which is now the highest credential in the field of massage therapy. Kristin is licensed to practice massage in the state of Pennsylvania and is also certified in pediatric massage. ​ Kristin intuitively integrates various techniques in her massage session to bring about the most beneficial results.
