There have been a lot of changes for me over the last couple of months.

From earning my Personal Training Certification, starting work towards Nutrition Coaching and Corrective Exercise Specialist (more on those later), to leaving the bounds of employment and becoming my own boss. The changes are bigger and better, and would not be possible without you.

Most of you have been with me for nearly 13 years, jumping from spa to chiropractic clinics to gyms and back. Many of you opened your homes for house calls while I looked for a space of my own. Those of you whom I have recently met filled in the gaps in my schedule and my life.

I am forever grateful to you all!

As 2025 comes to an end, I find myself at the beginning of a journey I never thought I would be taking. I am a business owner with space to call my own. A space that I am incredibly excited to grow-with you.

From Massage therapy, to fitness and nutrition (coming sometime in 2026), and a general sense of love and safety, the possibilities are endless.

I look forward to the future and welcome you to join me as I start the newest chapter of my life. My office is located at 328 Main Street, Suite 105 in Ames.

Easily found on Main Street, tucked behind Main Street Deli, and across the street from Everts, with multiple choices for coffee and shopping.

My schedule will be open for online booking by the middle of next week. Please send me a message if you have any questions. I will see you soon!

Best Wishes,

Kristina Rodden A.S, LMT, CPT

After working as a professional Licensed Massage Therapist for over 19 years, I have learned a great deal about the human body and the unique, challenging, and beautiful opportunities there are for me to heal. As a therapeutic and sports-based LMT, I kept running into the walls of my Scope of Practice when clients asked questions about exercise and nutrition. I could only tell them what I was doing for me. I decided to add another layer to what I can offer to my clients; Personal Training. I have so much more to learn before I take on clients, but when I do... It's game on.

I wanted to take a moment to highlight a fellow LMT, Aidan Wimmer.
He recently graduated from PCI here in Ames, and is currently working at Ames Spine and Sport. I asked him to write a little 'blerp' before I left, so that I could share in his words, what he hopes to accomplish for his clients during their treatments.

"I love doing slow deep tissue, and firm pressure massage. Working out small trigger points in the muscle and lengthening body tissues will always feel rewarding... I like using cupping and hot stones as extra tools with my therapeutic approach, in hopes to create lasting results. For athletes, gym goers, or if you have a specific muscle pain, we can create a targeted approach to hopefully relieve some pain and assist with the healing process. I also like using the bodys natural range of motion to reach muscles previously not accessable or to stretch a specific muscle group. IF you are feeling stressed out from life, I can also do a relaxing whole body massage with lighter pressure."

Aidan is like a sponge. He is ready to learn and grow, and soak up all of the comments, compliments and suggestions that come his way. He stepped into this profession ready to face the immediate stigma and bias that unfortunately comes with being a male in this industry.
I would love to hear about your experiences with him, so give him a try!!

I am at the end of the first two weeks of working as a solo Massage Therapist.
It feels GOOD! Mobile massage has been working much better than I could have hoped, and I have rediscovered the fun and enjoyment I used to get from doing bodywork. Something I thought had been over-worked out of my soul a long time ago.
I am feeling more pride and accomplishment in myself, and the excitement of a fuller future is pulling me forward.
I *might* have an office space. I am waiting for the realtor to get caught up with a few things, then hopefully we can move forward with that.
I am over 60% finished with studying for the CPT (Certified Personal Trainer) test, then hopefully by the end of January 2026, I will have taken and passed that exam.
Big things are happening, and you all get to be a part of it!
