RMT, CST, BA Owner Operator

Welcome! I work from the perspective that the body is an integrated system; all systems interconnect to influence movement, pain, and function. Tension or restrictions in one area can create symptoms elsewhere, my approach is to connect these different aspects of the body—releasing fascial restrictions, addressing neural tone, and improving circulation—so people move better and feel more resilient. My treatment style is attentive, detail-oriented, and individualized. My formal training is in therapeutic massage, neuromuscular therapy, myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, visceral and neural manipulation, and sports massage. My schools have been Mount Royal University, The Upledger Institute, The Milne Institute, The Barral Institute, and St. Johns Neuromuscular Therapy. I am committed to life-long learning and professional development. I am local to Calgary, I've been practicing here for over 20years and I love helping others feel better.

RMT

As a graduate of Mount Royal University’s massage therapy diploma program, I am focused on delivering therapeutic and sports massage. Sport and athletics have always been a part of my life, from competitive track running in high school and university, to more recent pursuits such as road cycling, recreational hockey and coaching soccer. \I have developed respect for the body and understand the benefits that massage can bring to sports and wellness. It’s why I decided to transition from Information Technology to a new career path focused on helping clients achieve their wellness goals. 

“Massage therapy and osteopathic fascial release have been invaluable tools in my own recovery from several serious injuries over the years. I practice bodywork because I know it is a viable treatment option for a multitude of musculoskeletal and digestive issues. I personally continue to receive regular care in order to maintain my ability to ski, hike, work, do yoga and live well. I know and understand the importance of functional fitness and building strength as we age. I am committed to regular training and I encourage my clients to do the same.
