I graduated from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in Victoria. I started with relaxation massage treatments over 20 years ago. Massage introduced me to energy work and I became a Level III Reiki practitioner in 2003. A common thread through both modalities was the space created and time spent with a person which led me to become a good active listener. In 2005 I completed the Integrated Clinical Counselling Program. I am an athlete with a background in running and triathlon. With this passion for sport, I became a running and triathlon coach and have helped people unleash their potential for over 10 years. With the same passion I have for sport I feel massage is another wonderful way of supporting people to be their best self, through better health. Each person is received with personal care and concern for their wellbeing. I honor them by creating and holding space in order to facilitate their own healing journey. I offer a variety of techniques and work with the person to determine the best method of treatment by spending time and getting to know them and their wish for ongoing health. Some of the methods used may include Swedish massage, myofascial release, joint mobilization, active engagement, and stretch. Massage can help you release muscle tension, reduce stress, aid in better sleep, increase mobility and help you find the joy in your life again! Whether you are an athlete coming back from an injury, have a specific health concern, or just want to decompress from everyday life I can personalize your time with me. Treatments generally end with the discussion of the next steps and may include exercise, strength, and or stretch routine.
