After graduating from massage school in 2003, I started my career working in a couple of locations while beginning to grow my practice. The first opportunity was doing corporate chair massage downtown at City Hall. It was a wonderful experience that lasted 12 years. I was able to explore massage in a different way with a chair instead of a table and learned it's effectiveness quickly. Chair massage is a great tool to really work into the shoulders, neck, back and hips and working through clothing helped me to develop and add more depth and various techniques to my massage.
At the same time I worked in one of Calgary's first peri-natal clinics. This was the experience that really shaped my career and who I am as a practitioner because of the wonderful people I mentored under those first few years. This holistic approach to pregnancy massage was supportive and comforting to clients as well as firm and effective while working within the boundaries of safety during this special and sometimes challenging time. It did my heart good to see the relief massage can give in these circumstances. I really enjoyed my 15 years in this specialized field and now take the knowledge and experience with me into other avenues of massage.
As I grew in my practice I was drawn to energy healing and complimentary techniques. In 2018 while looking for something with a scientific backing I was lead to the modality called Healing Touch. Again, I was blessed with a wonderful teacher and mentor who embodies the aspects of gentle yet strong, a force of good in the world. Learning to work in the realm of light or no touch healing was quite the shift after years of therapeutic and deep tissue massage! I adore this work and have seen the most amazing shifts in people on the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of their being after clearing and connecting the chakras and energy fields of the body. Healing Touch is an "effortless effort" and provides a beautiful path within sacred space to explore a deeper awareness of oneself while releasing what no longer serves our highest good.
It has been a wonderful journey thus far and I look forward to what the future holds for my community, my family/friends and myself. I enjoy time in nature and gardening, anything to do with being outside and reconnecting to our Earth. This is such a beautiful work and I feel so blessed to be a part of it.
