Hot stones are one of my favourite treatments. Heat is relaxing and can be a very beneficial part to healing. The heat brings in blood and with that extra oxygen and nutrients.
I still have some openings next week 😊

Cold outside? Let us warm you all the way up. 🧣✨
There’s nothing like a Hot Stone Massage in the middle of winter — smooth, heated stones melting away tension while you stay cozy and relaxed from head to toe.

Perfect for chilly muscles, winter stress, and anyone who just needs a little extra warmth right now. 💆‍♀️🖤

We currently have openings on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays — they won’t last long!

Ask your RMT:
What keeps you in the profession?

The calm and peace.

Days can really get hectic, especially this time of year. I do my best to stay on schedule, but sometimes things fall by the wayside and the 15 min between sessions can be a mad dash.

However, as soon as that door closes and I set intention with first contact, usually static contact or compressions, we both take a breath and the world falls away. Everything is left at the door and inside we have a unique moment to forget responsibility of family, the stressful job, chores and errands, everything else can wait.

In this moment we are working on your goals we have set for this session. If it is relaxation, increasing range of motion for an area, reducing extra tension, pain management. This moment is client centred, focused on you and I get to be apart of this amazing opportunity.

Being apart of these moments is what I love about being a massage therapist.

Some of my movements are very intentional and specific goals to reach.

Despite the look on my face I am having so much fun. 😄 Honestly. Trying out some new equipment, testing new limits, just me, weights, my spreadsheets.

I enjoy tracking so I can see where I have been, where I can safely lift more as I prevent injury by going in stages.

This is how I stay strong and prevent being sore from work. 💪

What did your movement look like this week?

What style of massage do you do?

I don’t necessarily stick to a particular type or style of massage. I was trained more with a toolkit of massage techniques. Each of these have different strengths for accomplishing goals such as promoting relaxation, decreasing pain, decreasing symptoms of trigger points etc. Starting with the interview and assessment I start to make the best judgement for tools required to meet your treatment goals.

Of course I do have my favourites, enter muscle stripping using my forearm. I love this technique for promoting general relaxation over a broad area and it also gives me a good feel for what’s going on with the soft tissues a little deeper through.

Everything can be adjusted and mixed up depending on what I find and from client input too. I am aware that I have developed my own kind of style for massage and I am always trying to evolve as I continue to learn and develop my skills.

Easiest way to find out is come in for a massage treatment.

💆‍♀️ Self-care looks different for everyone. For some, it’s a walk outdoors, a good night’s sleep, or scheduling time for massage therapy.
🏊‍♀️ In the summer swimming is my go to. I could spend every moment at the beach.
🍂 Now that fall is in the air I will be lacing up my shoes and adding more walking to my day.
🌿 What’s your go-to way to recharge during the week?
