I graduated from the Alberta College of Massage Therapy and the Manual Osteopathic College of Canada, both with Honours with Distinction. I am also a Teaching Assistant and Instructor at the Manual Osteopathic College of Canada. I became an RMT and Manual Osteopathic Therapist because I am passionate about helping others. I have always wanted a career where I could make a meaningful difference in people’s lives and help them feel their best. Massage Therapy and Manual Osteopathic Therapy have given me the opportunity to do exactly that. I provide treatment for individuals of all ages, from infants to adults. Some of my favourite clients to work with include infants and children, individuals living with Fibromyalgia, those recovering from motor vehicle accidents, people who have experienced concussions or head trauma, and individuals with Lipedema and Lymphedema. Having experienced multiple concussions and sports-related injuries throughout my life, I have seen firsthand how effective Manual Osteopathic Therapy can be in supporting recovery. My own experiences have given me a deep understanding of the challenges that injuries can bring and the importance of helping the body heal and function at its best. I create individualized, client-centred treatment plans designed to help you move better, feel better, and improve your overall quality of life. In addition to my formal education, I am a Certified Lymphedema Therapist with advanced training in Lymph Drainage Therapy. I have also completed extensive continuing education in CranioSacral Therapy, SomatoEmotional Release, Visceral Manipulation, Neural Manipulation, NeuroEmbryological Release of Ligaments, and the treatment of chronic conditions such as Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Multiple Sclerosis. I am passionate about lifelong learning and continually pursue advanced education to better support my clients. As a Manual Osteopathic Therapist, I focus on identifying and addressing the root cause of your symptoms by helping create balance within the body so it can function optimally. Treatment may include Visceral Manipulation to address restrictions within the organs, Osteoarticulations for the bones and joints, CranioSacral Therapy for the skull, pelvis, and central nervous system, Advanced Myofascial Remodelling for the fascia and connective tissue, and Lymphatic Drainage Therapy to support the lymphatic system. I can’t wait to meet you and look forward to supporting you on your healing journey.
Massage Therapy
Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, hands-on treatment of your cranial sacral system. Using about 5 grams of pressure, practitioners release restrictions within your craniosacral system, which has shown improved functionality of your central nervous system, as well as many other systems of the body, such as digestive musculoskeletal, respiratory, circulatory, and more. Craniosacral therapy can be beneficial during pregnancy to help reduce stress on mom which can ultimately reduce stress on baby, but it can also help prepare your body for birth, and much more!
