How long have you been practicing massage therapy/wellness, and what led you to choose this particular clinic?

​

I have been a massage therapist for 7 years now. I first got into massage as a stepping stone to a medical field, but I fell in love with the good I can do as an RMT and the more personal attention I can give each and every client. 

​

What do you enjoy doing outside of work, and how do you stay healthy and balanced in your own life?

​

I enjoy playing sports, both soccer and volleyball are my favourites. But my quieter/ more mindful hobbies include gardening, crocheting, drawing and embroidery. 

​

Who usually comes to see you/ what are they often looking for?

​

I have a range of clientele, I enjoy working with infants and young children to assist them in teaching their individual milestones. As well as athletes, both in injury rehabilitation and maintaining healthy working bodies. But I also enjoy working with the everyday person looking to improve their overall physical and mental health or solving any surprise or recurring pain complaints that come up. 

​

What is the most rewarding part of your job, and what keeps you motivated to continue practicing massage therapy/wellness?

​

My favourite part of massage is to see both the immediate and progressive relief and improvement of each client after every treatment. 

​

What is the most rewarding part of your job, and what keeps you motivated to continue practicing massage therapy/wellness?

I try to keep up to date on new/new to me treatments by keeping in touch with previous classmates and coworkers and getting know their favourite and most effective types of treatments. I also try and research new courses and workshops that I find interesting and that could be beneficial to my clients. 

​

What is your favourite way to move your body?

My favourite ways to move my body is through soccer and volleyball, soccer I have been playing for over 20 years and coaching for almost 10. Volleyball is newer only playing about 15 years, but I love the challenge of continuing to improve to keep up with the level of competition.
