Jolene Lott

Hailing from Grande Cache, AB, Jolene graduated from the Massage Therapy Diploma program at Grant MacEwan College in Edmonton, AB, in June of 2002. She held a continuous RMT contract position with Beaumont Chiropractic Center from 2002-2012. In addition to her previous post-secondary studies in Fine Arts and Business Management, her professional continuing education courses include: CranioSacral Therapy I and II, SomatoEmotional Release I, Manual Lymphatic Drainage I and Visceral Manipulation I and II. She has also taken numerous other courses considered less academic, but are no less significant in enhancing her practice of Massage Therapy: Usui Reiki Degree 1 and 2, Doula Certification Training, and two seperate Healing From The Core programs, that have proven to be immeasurably valuable! Jolene is already registered in Visceral Manipulation Level IV in August 2025. She is grateful to be able to continue her pursuit of a Visceral Manipulation Certification. Due to a job opportunity in the West Kootenays for her handsome hubby, Dean, they moved here from Alberta in the fall of 2012. Exactly one year later, they welcomed their first of two sons! This put Jolene’s RMT career plans in BC on hold for about a decade, so that she could focus on Mom-ming. She was however, able to procure a position with Back In Balance Wellness Center in Castlegar for 5 years, during which time she became successful in obtaining her RMT status in BC. She maintained a Full-time RMT contract position with Back In Balance starting January 2023. In order to be closer to her boys, Jolene decided to move her practice to Trail in August 2024. Since her very first winter in BC of 2012/13, Jolene has maintained seasonal employment within the Lift Operations Dept. at Red Mountain Resort. Most people recognize her friendly face every winter as the ‘Lifty Mom’ of Red Mountain! With the advent of her youngest son, Malcolm, joining Trail Minor Hockey, Jolene can now add ‘Hockey Mom’ to the list! Once the seasons change, she can be found with her boys hiking or mountain biking the trails in the area, kayaking and paddle boarding at Champion Lakes, and camping (wherever they can actually find a spot!) Jolene’s passion for the performing arts has never diminished, and over the years has become involved with the Trail Harmony Choir, the Kootenay Women’s Ensemble, the SwingSations Jazz Band as Female soloist, and most recently, successfully auditioned for Rossland Light Opera Players along with her oldest son, Markus. Jolene looks forward to meeting and working with new clients in the Trail area and welcoming past clients to her new location at Kootenay Columbia Therapeutics.
