Christian Vrient
Having personally experienced a career marked by constant stress, Christian Vrient turned naturally to wellness.
Graduated from ICHEC, Christian started his career in industrial printing, before joining a multinational company in the security sector where he led a team of 200 people. A job wit heavy operational responsibilities and stress, day and night, 365 days a year. To manage this constant stress, he began practicing Tai chi and aikido and turned to relaxation therapy and massage. Realizing the true benefits of these activities, he started training in various massage techniques, specialising in shiatsu and seated massage.
Convinced of the effectiveness of these practices to significantly reduce stress, but also as long-term performance drivers for companies, he founded Konki in 2006 to share his experience and promote in-company wellness management.
Because massage affects emotions, Christian further trained to become psychotherapist, allowing him to accompany people in their personal and professional development. Christian is a full member of the Belgian Association of Seated Massage Practitioners, focusing on Safety and Ethics. He is also certified in the Massage In School Program to promote healthy touch to children at school.
