Myokinetics Registered Massage Therapy

110, 2255 Wilson Ave , Port Coquitlam, BC, V3C 1Z4

Jessica graduated with honours from Vancouver College of Massage Therapy (VCMT) in 2019. Her passion for health, wellness and fitness drew her towards the profession. She has witnessed the impact regular massage can have on a person’s life and has experienced it firsthand as well. Jessica has a specific interest in treatment of conditions of the neck and jaw-helping ease symptoms related to TMJD (teeth clenching/grinding, headaches, tinnitus), migraines and whiplash. She has taken additional training to be certified in intra-oral massage and regularly sees patients for these issues. She is also trained in instrument assisted soft-tissue mobilization (IASTM), where the use of metal tools is employed to break up scar tissue and adhesions that may be present between the layers of skin, muscle and fascia. These tools can be particularly helpful for post-surgery scar healing and promotion of increased range of motion. During treatment, Jessica employs techniques such as Swedish massage, myofascial release, trigger point release, passive and patient-assisted stretching to help decrease pain, increase range of motion and improve overall relaxation. Her philosophy is that patient involvement is key in decreasing chronic pain as well as treating acute injuries. She enjoys creating tailored homecare plans for each of her patients using active rehabilitation and strengthening exercises, stretches, deep breathing and mindfulness techniques. Jessica believes that pain is a complex, multifaceted issue, and should be approached from all angles.
