Christine Marya Nonnenmacher

Born the sixth of 9 children outside Washington, D.C. along the Potomac River, Christine easily became an expert at play. At age 4 she was mesmerized watching her grandfather create checkerboard-style woodworking pieces that everyone marveled over, and at age 10 she began cooking for the entire family especially taking after Mom's father, the baker. But running around with siblings and friends in the great outdoors was her greatest joy. Active in biking, skating, sledding, kickball, hockey and tennis and anything else she could do brought plenty of impacts to her body which continued over the years, eventually bringing a louder call for healing.

In college opting for nutrition and sports in a kinesiology program brought her several major impacts playing soccer, basketball and tennis but she never felt the need for specialized attention. Her Mom was a nurse and it only took a quick phone call to find out what to do when hurt. But this was an illusion.

Opportunity was always knocking and Christine jumped at the chance to work in publishing at the Smithsonian before college, and after going to school for a short time was called back to start up Air&Space Magazine, leaving her kinesiology studies for a later date.

After crossing the country to be with family in L.A., she picked up portrait photography as a hobby-budding-into-career, but lugging equipment soon turned up a scary situation in her neck. Her first visit to a chiropractor and introduction to massage therapy was a hefty non-English speaking Russian with a style of Rolfing which wasn't pleasant in the least. But even after many treatments she was yet unaware of other major issues in her body. She went on to work in film production, marketing and promotions until a vacation led her yet further West.

After the big move to Maui, and a major whiplash "accident" (there are no accidents) she had realized a new career as a recipient of massage and was soon after accepted into the Maui School of Therapeutic Massage in 2003.

More recently Christine has been following her bliss, silk painting and studying the Mind, the Law of Attraction and the other Universal Laws and says she has entered a state of awareness and connection to Source like she never experienced thanks to a support system of experts she had only dreamed of.

Currently Christine is constructing ChristineMarya.com, a central empowerment site for energized self-healing by combining creative power and healing energies in form as guided meditations and visualizations, music, photography, silk painting and storytelling, all inspiring inner peace. Creating inner peace = world peace!

Christine's next project, preliminary title "I Am Healing Power", is a deeper look into the metaphysical consequences of improper thinking and steps to remedy the causes of these impending healing crises.

"In retrospect we see things so much more clearly. Had I understood from around age 20 when I picked up my first massage book, "Acupuncture Without Needles," that I was being prompted to get help, I may also have discovered way back then what now proves to be my most rewarding career move. But everything works in perfection and I may have missed out on my fabulous days at Disney, a lifelong goal, and other amazing experiences in my life. Experience is our true education. And I have had an incredible "explorer" career.

The real value in what has happened to me over time actually revealed itself throughout training with the understanding of opportunity calling in "paying it forward", my responsibility to help others become aware of what our signals are and how to treat ourselves for our ultimate healing. Pain is a signal. It's a call to us to do something different.

I understood that not just in tough economic times but for everyone, all the time, we can save ourselves years of pain and thousands of dollars with a basic understanding of physiological facts, simple stretching which I developed called 10% Stretching, mostly done while lying on the back and self-massage techniques for even the worst problems we have.

I know these techniques are extremely effective because I've used them myself, and in a little over a year have made a remarkable change in my spinal alignment reversing two major "syndromes," a spinal twist from a rogue wave while body surfing, and all those years of beating myself up playing, having a blast. A torn ankle ligament here, a ruptured shoulder tendon there, the other shoulder separation, knee twist which took my hip with it, the other compressed knee, etc.

People love my program because it's preventative and progressive. It's what takes someone from the bed to yoga or the trainer to begin recovery. It's born of the need for those of us who are in pain, stiff, sick, bedridden or "old". Nobody is old if we don't want to be. We are as young as we feel and when feeling that excitement for life inside, our body is constantly collecting Source Energy. Constantly. Which means, like everything, aging is all in our Mind. We do not have to age, we only do because we believe it happens.

When following this simple regimen daily, our spinal muscles become and remain as flexible as possible for their daily jobs, mostly holding us up. The compression of the vertebrae and the nerves traveling through them are truly the beginning of the majority of our ailments. And it begins with poor postural alignment, occupational habits, sleep habits and other repetitive motions. Keeping optimum musculature means keeping optimum health.

Of course the body is formed in the Mind. And dis-ease or dis-comfort, comes with negative or limited thinking at the core level. And there is a nerve in our vertebrae identified specifically to handle posture, and each and every other aspect of health. We can easily treat the physical. And we will cure the cause when we process the mental and emotional aspects of what the "healing crisis" signal is about.

The body follows our command, our direction, every second. The good news is, we can reverse anything we've created in our musculature relatively quickly, most within minutes, chronic issues usually within days or weeks of developing new good habits, a bit longer with surgery or more severe injury. And much faster always when handling the metaphysical causes.

I'm excited to share my recommendations to help people through their issues, dis-ease and pain, to the other side, to perfect musculature, perfect health. In my creative opinion, it's a piece of cake!"
