About Me

Welcome! My name is Kellony Kristof, and I am a passionate educator and licensed massage therapist (LMT) with over 16 years of experience in the field. My journey in massage therapy has been enriched by extensive studies in a variety of massage modalities and holistic practices, allowing me to bring a diverse and well-rounded approach to both my massage practice and my teaching.


I hold a bachelor's degree in social work and spent many years in hospice care, where I developed a deep appreciation for holistic healing and the profound impact of compassionate touch. This experience has deeply influenced my approach to massage therapy, emphasizing the importance of integrating body, mind, and spirit in healing. During my LMT career, I have experience in several work environments including a day spa, resort spa, and a private practice!


As of July 2024, I am proud to be an approved continuing education (CE) provider with the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork (NCBTMB #1001734) and the Federation of State Massage Therapy Boards (FSMTB). My mission is to inspire and empower fellow LMTs through high-quality, engaging CE courses that not only deepen their skills but also nurture their personal and professional growth. 


Throughout my career, I have served as a massage educator and school director since 2015, where I discovered my true passion for teaching. In my CE classes, I blend my extensive experience with holistic practices, aromatherapy, and the wide range of massage modalities I’ve studied. My courses are designed to be immersive and transformative, offering practical techniques and insights that LMTs can immediately apply in their practice.


I believe that continuing education should be more than just meeting requirements—it should be an opportunity for growth, renewal, and inspiration. Whether you're looking to expand your knowledge, enhance your skills, or explore new modalities, I am here to guide you on your journey. Let's elevate your practice together!

If you’re interested in having me teach at your massage school or in your town, I’d be thrilled to connect! Simply use the link below to send me an email, and let’s explore the possibilities.
