About Chantel
CHANTEL C. LUCIER, NBCR, RMT, CMT, NCREd
Author, Certified Reflexology Practitioner & Educator, Reiki Master Practitioner & Teacher, Certified in Mudra Therapy, Massage Therapy, RLD, SBIRT, and Traumatic Stress Studies |
Chantel C. Lucier was born in San Francisco to a family of Mexican, Norwegian, and Italian performers and musicians. In time, Chantel followed the family tradition and became a dancer, singer, and actor. In 2001, she moved to New York City as a performing artist and soon discovered reflexology, reiki and their myriad benefits. Chantel traces her vision back to her grandmother, MaKaye's home. "Everyone in the neighborhood was always welcome. We didn't have a lot of money, but no one ever went hungry... in fact we ate really well. And there was always an abundance of creative energy in the house. The smell of grandma's chiles rellenos and the sound of music into the night." While Chantel’s early life had been rich with food, family, music and art, one element had been missing – an attention to health. All those long nights had meant late mornings and the accompanying imbalance in wellbeing. By adding reflexology, reiki, and other healing practices to her life, Chantel discovered that caring for the physical needs of yourself and others is also a vitally important art and that the connection it fosters is essential for healing to flow on all levels. The AtHome Experience aims to recreate that energy, bring different people together and give its participants the tools to take care of themselves, each other, and their communities. And like MaKaye’s dinner table so long ago, everyone is welcome At Home. |
