Jennifer (Jay) James Owner RMT, Jay works Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. She is currently accepting new patients. Jennifer Graduated from West Coast College of Massage Therapy in 1992. She was appointed to the board of the College of Massage therapy for 6 years and serve on the Ethics and Discipline committee from 1993-1997. She was a board examiner for the British Columbia College of Massage Therapists from 1997-2006. Jennifer has taken many postgraduate classes since she graduated and is committed to constant learning and understanding of how the body works. She has taken extensive courses in Cranial Sacral therapy – graduate from a 3-year program from Windwood institute of Cranial therapy, and Upledger cranial and visceral therapy. Jennifer has also taken deep tissue massage from Paul St. John neuromuscular therapy, and osteopathic muscle energy courses. In June of 2010 she had an exciting opportunity to participate in a course from France that was offered for the first time in Western Canada and USA. Jennifer completed the course August 2011 from the Institute for G.D.S. Muscular Chains and Techniques, which completely changed how Jennifer assesses and treats the body. For treatments patients need to bring shorts for the postural assessment portion of the session. I based my treatments on observing mobility of the entire body, with the goal to realign dysfunctions that are palpated and observed. I test the body’s joints and fascia for suppleness or restrictions then these imbalances are realigning. Resulting in a treatment that is balancing the whole body, not just addressing the area of complaint. My professional designation is a RMT however I no longer use Swedish massage techniques (I do not use oils in treatment). The modalities I treat with are: Craniosacral, Joint Mobilizations, Myofascial Release, Visceral Manipulation techniques and GDS Articular Chains. I DO NOT DO relaxation massage.
