About me…..
I was raised in the kootenays and I continue to fall in love with this area every passing year. Family, friends and community connections have supported and shaped me into who I am. This is special and I am grateful for this upbringing.
Like most kootenay folks I gravitated towards outdoor activity and adventure in my youth. I get inspired to try new activities that move my body in different ways to achieve physical and mental health. Being in the mountains feeds my soul and standing amongst tall trees enlivens my spirit.
What to expect
For your initial treatment please complete the health history and consent online prior to your appointment time.
Once in the treatment room there will be a conversation about the present health condition you want treated and any other relevant health concerns. I will do a brief assessment and continue to assess through out the treatment. Our bodies are constantly changing so assessment provides me with insight on how to facilitate healing. Time on the table will be focused and specific to the clients goals. Home care suggestions and exercise teaching may be suggested. This gives the client tools to maintain the tissue changes that were accomplished during treatment.
My treatments are specific and therapeutic. I practice myofascial release, craniosacral and visceral manipulations, so I generally don’t use oil. They can be relaxing but not in the same way as a traditional massage where oil is used.
Services
Visceral Manipulation
Visceral manipulation is a gentle specific mobilization of organs in the body. For an organ to be healthy and have optimal function it need to have mobility. All our organs are surrounded in fascia and they can get adhered to surrounding structures. This can show up as pain or decreased mobility in joints and muscles, because your body will always prioritize your organ function over your musculoskeletal function.

Craniosacral Therapy
The heart of craniosacral practice is listening. It demands stillness, presence and humility of the practitioner. Craniosacral techniques work partly due to the system of membranous partitions inside the head which connects to the dura of the central nervous system which in turn can effect the whole body. It is an informative way to assess tissue prior to performing mobilization techniques, calm the nervous system and create subtle yet powerful change in the tissue dynamics.
