MASSAGE FOR WELLNESS
I am dedicated to improving your health and well-being

I have been a registered massage therapist since 1997 and have worked in massage therapy clinics, a chiropractic clinic and out of a home-based clinic in St. Catharines and now in Niagara Falls.

I am a holistic/wholistic therapist.  What does that mean?

I incorporate as much full body work as possible while still focusing on your major complaint. Why?  You may complain of tension headaches and a sore neck, but the muscles in your mid back, rib cage and diaphragm may have adhesions and trigger points in them and if they are not addressed, you may experience only minor relief.

In order to accomplish this, I implement a variety of massage techniques, including Swedish massage, myofascial release, joint mobilizations, CranioSacral Therapy, osteopathic techniques, lymphatic drainage and Reiki  to relieve pain, inflammation, swelling and restricted joint movement from stress, poor posture, chronic conditions and injuries, in both acute and chronic stages. The ultimate goal is to rehabilitate and restore soft tissue in order to decrease or eliminate pain and in some cases to return to activities of daily living.

Also, and most importantly, I do like to include a minimum of relaxation techniques into your treatment even if you are receiving deep or deeper tissue work because relaxation of tissue allows for better integration of the treatment into the nervous system in order for healing to take place.

​
​I offer the highest quality of care by listening to you so together we can design a treatment plan that suits your specific needs.
