Shockwave Specialists
177 W 2nd Ave, #4, Qualicum Beach, BC, V9K 2H7
Lianne has been a Registered Massage Therapist for just under 20 years and has built her career around one core purpose: helping people live fuller, freer lives without pain. She offers a full-body, holistic approach to healing, honouring the connection between mind, body, and spirit while treating each person as a whole. Her journey with shockwave therapy began over 10 years ago after she suffered from Morton’s neuroma, a painful nerve condition that the medical system could only offer to correct through surgery. After just three shockwave treatments, her nerve pain disappeared completely — and never returned. That experience changed the direction of her work. She knew immediately that this was a modality she needed to bring to others. At the time, Lianne did not purchase a shockwave machine right away. British Columbia is the only province where RMTs cannot offer shockwave therapy within their massage therapy scope of practice, despite having some of the most comprehensive education in the country. Determined to do things properly, Lianne contacted the College of Massage Therapists of BC to ask whether she could offer shockwave therapy outside of her RMT practice. Their answer was yes — and the journey began. What started with one significant investment into a single machine has now grown into Shockwave Specialists, with four machines and a team of practitioners trained personally by Lianne. The results have been profound. Many patients arrive after years of pain, frustration, and limited answers. Often, after even one treatment, they experience relief so significant it brings them to tears — because for the first time in years, they can imagine getting their life back. Shockwave Specialists was born from Lianne’s genuine passion for helping others heal. Her treatment style is proprietary, highly specific, and unlike anything found elsewhere. Every practitioner at Shockwave Specialists has been personally trained in Lianne’s application method, ensuring that each patient receives thoughtful, skilled, and effective care. Every person who walks through the doors of Shockwave Specialists is in the greatest of hands, no matter which practitioner they see.
