Christie Jespersen is a Licensed Massage Therapist based in Bend, Oregon, practicing out of the Bend Wellness Collective. Born and raised in Spain, she was introduced to diverse cultures and healing traditions from an early age through her mother, a longtime practitioner in the bodywork world. Christie has been in practice since 2013, bringing experience from physical therapy clinics, home health, hospital settings, and end-of-life care. She has also participated in two medical missions to Guatemala. A personal health crisis deepened her commitment to lymphatic health and detoxification, shaping her signature approach that blends Lymphatic Decongestive Therapy, CranioSacral Therapy, Therapeutic Massage, and Reiki to support immunity, reduce inflammation, and promote whole-body healing.
