I am a massage therapist with a passion for mind body connection. Not only are we able to achieve mind body connection through massage, but also movement! My ideal client is someone that has been dealing with an achy body with gaining more control over their health as one of their priorities.

I am contracted with and bill Regence. My massage style is very helpful for chronic pain, reduced mobility, postural challenges, and especially injury recovery. I use specific, direct communication with every client. They always know what to expect. Clients know I am listening and they can speak up to let me know how thing’s are going. My goal is to only have positive benefit for my clients. And, I receive joy when folks have less pain, stress, and fatigue. Whether a client is in sports training or in a delicate stage of life. I treat each person as a unique individual. With their own needs and outcomes.

I've been studying and practicing massage since 2009. My focus is helping others to recover from injuries and accidents with treatment massage. I use various techniques such as Deep tissue, Trigger point therapy, Myofascial release, as well as Swedish massage. I have successfully helped people who have been in auto accidents, those with chronic headaches, tennis elbow, whiplash, low back pain, TMJ, rotator cuff injuries, achilles sprains/strains, and more. I have experience in Pregnancy massage as well and absolutely love it!

Who can practice massage in Vancouver?

Licensed Massage Therapists in Vancouver have obtained the highest level of authentication. They must complete academic coursework in anatomy and physiology, as well as on the application of massage and bodywork, business and ethics, and specialized massage techniques. The Vancouver LMT must then pass a certification exam.
