BIOGRAPHY

 My Registered Massage Therapy (RMT) education is enhanced by a degree in Health Science and mathematics.  This has enabled  me to work as an Advance Personal Trainer for the past 27 years.  I am also certified under Dr. Stuart McGill for back rehabilitation and strengthening and mentored by Dr. William Staines professor of Neurology and Anatomy at the University Of Ottawa.  This has also allowed me to work with various clients with CES (cauda Equinae syndrome), DDD (Degenerative Disc Disorder), sciatica, scoliosis and other back disorders.  I hold various certifications in personal training from the United States and Canada including functional/movement assessments and myofascial stretch.  

I worked closely with professional athletes including former NHL Player Justin Papineau, former NFL player Christo Bilukidi, former number one ranked Squash player Sam Cornette and other Canadian high school, college, university, professional athletes and non athletes.  I decided to add massage therapy to my skills to further enhance my ability to help current and future clients with massage treatments. With my years of practice and knowledge in anatomy and body physiology, this added education and training is instrumental in helping me further understand my clients needs, treat their bodies and help their body heal itself.

My specialization includes Swedish massage, Deep tissue massage, reduction of adhesions and fascial restrictions as well as Relaxation massage. I also treat TMJ, various client presentations but not limited to back issues, scar tissue restrictions, repetitive strain injury and pre/post pregnancy treatment. My practice is located in Riverside South, central to Manotick, Barrhaven and Findlay Creek.
