I began my practice as a massage therapist in 2007 after graduating from Algonquin College and I have loved working in the field since. I have a wide range of experience including treating: Pre-natal and post-natal women People with chronic pain conditions including fibromyalgia People in recovery from surgery People who have job related discomfort (ie. Back/shoulder/neck pain, carpel tunnel syndrome, etc.) People dealing with stress Athletes In 2015 I began to study John F. Barnes Myofascial Release. This type of work targets the fascial system which is what surrounds and supports every other tissue in the body and connects you from head to toe. This specific type of work targets adhesions in the fascial system that have developed over time from a variety of different stresses. The technique involves using a gentle, sustained pressure to allow the adhered tissue to soften. In combining traditional massage techniques and JFB Myofascial Release I am able to more effectively treat the body as a whole. I believe that massage therapy is important because it allows people to slow down and tune into what their body is trying to communicate to them to facilitate healing. In the fast paced world that we live in, there is often not much time left to stop and take care of ourselves. In my free time I enjoy hiking with my dog, reading, yoga, playing ringette and spending time with my family. I look forward to meeting you and helping you take a moment to reconnect with yourself.
