Hi, welcome to my website!
People use massage therapy for a variety of health-related purposes, including pain relief, rehabilitation of sports and overuse injuries, reduction of stress, increase relaxation, reducing anxiety and depression and to aid in one’s overall general sense of well-being.
Registered massage therapists in British Columbia must complete an extensive 2200 hour course which includes physiology, anatomy, neurology, pathology and practical-clinical work. To maintain our licence, we are required to participate in ongoing professional development and must adhere to our governing body’s Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics.
