RMT Massage Therapy (East Van)
Description
This service is available at the East Van Studio. Please note, there are two flights of stairs to access the studio, and a small dog may be present. Treatments with me are often deeply relaxing. Because of my background as a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner (trauma therapy) and end-of-life doula, I have a special interest in providing nurturing massage treatments to - relieve the stresses of caregiving - support those who are grieving - bring comfort to those with serious illness and in the later stages of life, and - help resolve symptoms of trauma I also provide general treatments to help your mind and body relax or recover from injury. Techniques may include: - shiatsu acupressure - foot reflexology - manual lymph drainage - swedish massage - gentle, stationary hand contact - myofascial release ** Session times include a check-in before and after the hands on treatment, holistic assessment, and home care suggestions, when you want them. At your first appointment, we will review an informed consent form, so you can feel empowered as an equal partner in the care you receive. As a Registered Massage Therapist, I can direct bill to many extended health plans.
