Raised in Strathmore, I am proud to still call this wonderful community my home! As a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) and graduate of Mount Royal University, I have always had a passion for helping others. My background as a competitive athlete in sports like Ringette, Rugby, and other high school activities gave me firsthand experience in the benefits of massage therapy, which fueled my interest in this field.

I take pride in my ability to address the symptoms of both acute and chronic conditions or injuries while aligning treatment with each individual's goals. My approach is supportive, judgment-free, and entirely personalized to the needs of each client.

I have specialized training in orthopedic assessment, injury treatment, rehabilitation exercises, and a variety of treatment techniques and modalities. This enables me to offer a wide range of services, including Therapeutic, Deep Tissue, Relaxation, Pediatric, and Sports Massage. My focus on Therapeutic and Sports Massage is particularly effective for clients seeking relief from specific muscle pain, injuries, or limited mobility. Common conditions I treat include temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ), runner’s knee, frozen shoulder, strains, sprains, and postural muscle imbalances, among others.

In addition, I specialize in Pediatric Massage, with over two years of experience as a child and youth worker in a domestic violence shelter. This background has given me valuable experience in working with children of all ages, as well as those with mental health challenges and disabilities. Pediatric Massage not only helps to relieve muscle tension from growth spurts or activity, but it also introduces healthy touch and helps reduce symptoms of anxiety and other mental health disorders.

Some of the other modalities I offer include Trigger Point Therapy, Manual Lymph Drainage, Pre- and Postnatal Massage, Joint Mobilizations, Myofascial Release, Hydrotherapy, and Cupping Therapy.

I believe in the profound benefits of massage therapy and am excited to be a part of my clients' health and wellness journeys. I look forward to helping you experience the healing and restorative power of massage.
