Christine, Dr. Goldman’s assistant and massage therapist, says that her primary career is to be the wife of David, and mother of two wonderful little girls, Gisella and Layla. “I really enjoy the balance of work, marriage and motherhood,” says Christine.
“I realized early on that I wanted to help others and discovered that by becoming a massage therapist I would have the ability to heal mind, body and spirit,” says Christine. She says that she was so thankful to have had the opportunity to attend and complete a 500 hour Massage Therapy Program at the Philadelphia School of Massage Therapy in 2001. “My time spent becoming a massage therapist was truly a life changing experience that I will hold with me forever,” continues Christine. She feels that her pursuit into the field of massage therapy gave her a deep joy that helped her discover her purpose.

Linda, Dr. Goldman’s assistant and massage therapist, says that her love of health care began when she was a young child. “Many people in my family were nurses, nurse practitioners, and nursing assistants,” says Linda. When she started high school she took all the health occupations classes available. Linda graduated with a certification as a nursing assistant, which gave her many great opportunities to work with a variety of people with different injuries and health problems. “These experiences have helped me gain a deeper intuition for the wants and needs of my current clients,” continues Linda.
Linda attended the National Massage Therapy Institute of Philadelphia and attained her certificate for massage in May of 2007. She felt that she was able to fulfill her lifelong dream of serving and helping people in the area of health and wellness. “I chose massage therapy over nursing primarily because I wanted to be able to treat and correct the cause of problems rather than covering up the pain with drugs,” says Linda.
Linda believes that her primary objective as a massage therapist is to help her clients relieve the stress and tension of everyday living. She feels that stress left untreated frequently results in disease and illness.
Throughout her extensive experience in the health care field, Linda has been able to provide great results for her clients. She has helped numerous clients with problems ranging from minor aches and pains, to knee injuries, and even to serious chronic illnesses.
“I enjoy each of my massage techniques,” explains Linda, “such as Swedish massage, which relieves back pain, shortens recovery time from muscular strains, and flushes toxins from the muscles. I also use trigger point therapy, which reduces stress and fatigue, improves circulation, and relaxes the body and mind.”
Linda’s family and friends describe her as an honest and hard working individual, who strives to get to know her clients well. “I want nothing but the best for them,” adds Linda. “I’m also committed to continuing my education and staying up to date with the latest research and massage techniques so I can help my clients in every way possible.”
