Practice Approach
Holding space for regeneration and rest is as important as restoring function and range of motion, and so I honour relaxation and de-stressing as valid treatment objectives. I approach “relaxation” through both a neurophysiological and intelligent design lens; this entails deep diving into many topics through books, articles, courses, and community.
I recognize the body’s self-healing capacities and I loyally support its singular mission: to maintain equilibrium (homeostasis).
I’ve been fortunate to have worked with diverse groups as a coach, college instructor, producer, student, and artist outside of my practice.
Professional Development
In 2017, I earned a diploma and a hospital specialization certificate through the Canadian College of Massage and Hydrotherapy. I am currently studying Medical Anthropology and Sociology at University of Toronto St. George campus. I also teach neuroanatomy, physiology, and manual skills to massage therapy college students
I hold manual therapy certifications in Advanced Sports Techniques, Clinical Skin Care Therapy, Lomilomi, and Temporomandibular Disorders. As a special interest, I am in mentorship for sound meditation facilitation, an offering I began to launch in 2026 as I move toward new therapeutic landscapes. This endeavor involves learning Sanskrit, for which I am very excited to begin at U of T in the fall.
I am a member in good standing with the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario (CMTO) and ACTRA.
