About Me.

As a Registered Massage Therapist, I am a registered member of both the CMTO and RMTAO. Priding myself in offering Client-Centered Care, I am interested in treating the body as an integrated system, focusing on:

  • Ankle/Knee/Foot injuries and/or pain

  • Manual Lymphatic Drainage

  • Craniosacral Therapy

  • Visceral Mobilization

  • Trauma Informed massage therapy

  • Fascial and Joint Mobility

  • Spinal Alignment/rotational patterns

  • Core Strength

  • Chronic Pain Symptom Management

  • Neck Pain/Headaches/TMJ/Whiplash

I have a special interest in scar/fascial work and its impacts on lymph and pain. I use a combination of fascial work, the Dr. Vodder technique for Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Cupping Massage, Craniosacral Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, and varying depths of tissue work depending on the specific needs and wants of each individual client.

In addition to my massage training, I graduated from the University of Western Ontario with an Hon. Bachelor Degree in Social Justice & Peace Studies in 2010. With a passion for social justice, organic food systems, and permaculture gardening, I spent several years as an organic gardener and plant an extensive vegetable garden every spring.

My Approach to Care.

 

I approach the body as a whole, and try to take as many factors into account as possible when assessing the area to be treated. Simply because your foot hurts does not necessarily means that’s where the pain originates - I believe it is important to search for that origin and to try to stop the pain at it’s source, progressing towards preventative care in order to stabilize a feeling of wellbeing and ensure a healthy flow of fluids (lymph, blood) through the tissues for optimal health.

Cancellation Policy

Your appointment time is reserved just for you. A late cancellation or missed visit leaves a hole in the therapists’ day that could have been filled by another patient. As such, we require 24 hours notice for any cancellations or changes to your appointment. Patients who provide less than 24 hours notice, or miss their appointment, will be charged a cancellation fee. In the event that recurrent late cancellations or no-shows occur, profile billing may be changed so that payments will be required prior to treatment.
