Massage Therapy

Massages can be either relaxation or therapeutic in nature. They are performed on a table. Assessment including a health history review is part of the session. The client stays dressed or unrobes to their level of comfort and the primary areas of concern are addressed by the therapist.

Massages can be either relaxation or therapeutic in nature. They are performed on a table. Assessment including a health history review is part of the session. The client stays dressed or unrobes to their level of comfort and the primary areas of concern are addressed by the therapist. With my background in many modalities, I often incorporate acupressure and stretching to focus on increasing the flow of energy (qi) and to help bring the body into a state of balance while easing both mental and physical tension.


Yoga

Come breath, stretch and strengthen. The type and level of yoga/movement depends on the practitioner teaching the class. The description will be in the online class sign up.

A little about myself… I did my 200hr level RYS yoga alliance Yoga teacher training in Rishikesh India in Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga. I’ve done 200hr alignment-based training in Ashaya Yoga and numerous workshops focusing on mindfulness, meditation & body image at Kripalu Yoga institute in Massachusetts. I’ve taught class in Quebec and in British Columbia to all levels of practitioners.

I offer modifications and adjust my teachings based on the students’ needs and abilities, everyone is welcome to come and share breath and space.

Having studied many modalities beginning at the age of 16 with reike and crystal healing, I draw upon years of hands-on work and study to assist your process physically, mentally or spiritually. Intuitively, messages and information mostly come visually for me but also somatically, meaning I feel and sense physical symptoms and emotions. I am a reike and Heliosol Practitioner. Please see a description of both modalities in the training section. Reiki, Heliosol, visualization, visioning and sound therapy are all used to support you in the Energy sessions. All of us have the innate ability to heal and shift ourselves into a more homeostatic or balanced state. When you are with me, I am a witness to you doing just that., with me as a listening guide.

From my RMT and body-focused training, assessment follows traditional methods of orthopaedic testing (range of motion and strength discrepancies for example). Myofascial techniques, joint play, facilitated stretching, acupressure, trigger point therapy and breathing techniques are used as massage tools to assist your central nervous system to recalibrate and start to heal. I have a particular interest in the pain science behind chronic issues and the effects of somatic treatment on our mental and emotional states.

Tuning into your body’s innate wisdom requires a dedicated approach and I am honoured to work with you.

I have deep reverence for being able to work in Dakwäkãda and share my gratitude for the people of the Champagne Aishihik Territory. The land heals us all.

Certified Reike Practitioner -A Reiki treatment is a way of increasing your life energy. A practitioner will transmit Reiki ( universal energy) to the client through the hands. The hands are lightly placed on or near the body in various positions around the head, shoulders, stomach and feet. Sometimes a practitioner will also treat above the body. * Certified Heliosol Practitioner - This system approaches the complaints a person has about their health or other aspect of life by working with that person’s inborn intelligence. The practitioner establishes a yes/no response with this intelligence and then uses The Healing Wheel and The HelioSol Master Chart to determine what needs to shift. HSS uses a series of templates that are applied to specific concerns to highlight the balancing energies required. The focus in all cases is to find the underlying concept that is causing the distortion and to bring the person’s attention to it. • Trained in hot stone massage. • Instructed massage students in anatomy, neurology, myology, massage treatment, massage theory and clinical assessment courses.
