Welcome to the Ladybugg Lounge!!
“Reclaim your Calm and let your stress take Flight!”
Born and raised in New Jersey, where I grew up with two loving and hardworking parents who taught me that if there’s something you want in life, don’t let anything stand in your way.
I started out with a love for cooking and even earned my Culinary Arts certificate in high school. My dream was to become a master chef… until one day, life took a turn I never expected. A visit to a local firehouse with a friend sparked something new, and before long, I was training to become a firefighter and EMT. That decision turned into a 13-year career serving my community — and it’s also where I met my husband and started our family.
In 2014, we took a leap of faith and moved to South Carolina for his firefighting career. It was an exciting new chapter, but it also brought change for me. After years of serving others through emergency care, I found myself burned out and battling chronic migraines. I knew I needed something that would let me help people in a different way — one that brought healing instead of exhaustion.
That’s when I rediscovered my interest in massage therapy. I took another leap of faith and enrolled at Southeastern College, where I earned my Clinical Massage Therapy certification and became a Licensed Massage Therapist in 2024.
Massage therapy has given me the opportunity to serve again, but this time through healing, balance, and compassion. I truly believe every person deserves to feel cared for and restored — and I’m honored to be part of that process.
“I suffer from chronic pain and after a 13 hour drive to visit family in South Carolina, I was hurting really bad. I looked for a massage therapist in the area and that is when I came across Kristin at Ladybugg Lounge. After reaching out to her, she was able to accommodate me and schedule me an appointment. It was the best massage that I ever had. After leaving the Ladybugg Lounge, I was able to enjoy the rest of my vacation and make the trip back home. I wish she had an office by me. Next time I am in Summerville, I will definitely go back. Thank you Kristin.”

“I went in during one of my worst migraines, and Kristin worked absolute magic. Her deep tissue massage relieved pain and even eased the pain I’d had in my shoulder for years. She’s incredibly skilled, attentive, and genuinely cares about her clients’ comfort and healing. Highly recommend!”
