There's much to see here. So, take your time, look around, and learn all there is to know about me. I hope you enjoy my site and take a moment to drop me a line.
My Grandmother (an Irish Nurse, during WW11) opened my eyes and noticed my ability. She always said I had healing hands. She always asked for a massage of some sort and said I should be a nurse or physio. Both wonderful careers but for me they were too clinical. It took me years to gain the courage to go back to school. I was 31 married with 2 daughters when I went back to school to study massage. I completed 2 yrs of school back in the UK. In the first year it was just Swedish Massage. The second year I studied Sports Injury Massage.
When my family then decided to move to Canada I needed to complete a 6 week massage program so that I could join a massage association as my qualifications didn't transfer. Since then I have remarried & had another child. My son was born in 2010. I have also challenged exams to gain my required 2200HRs recognition from my association (NHPC), so that I can submit receipts for ALL insurance companies depending on benefit packages.
In 2018 I took the big step to leave my place of work & open up on my own massage Practice! I love massage. For me it isn't a 'job' it's a passion!! I had heard about Ayurveda over the years, it really became a focus for me while I was trying to help my husband with his overall health. Knowing I can help clients my by doing and giving them more information, options and knowledge drives my passion! Ayur means "life" Vedic or Veda means 'knowledge', so simply translated in to life knowledge or the science of life. I love knowing that I have helped my clients in every way I can.
Ayurveda, Ayur (life) Veda (science or knowledge). Simply translated as science of life, is an over 5000 years old ancient East Indian medical system which is based on the Vedic Scriptures which rely on a 'natural' & holistic approach to you physical & mental health. According to the Vedic scriptures the 3 categories of fundamental regulatory principles of the body, mind & behaviour. These categories are known as Doshas; Vata, Kapha & Pitta. The Golden rule in Ayurveda is Balance. In Ayurveda there is an underlying belief that everything is connected. Because of this, general health & wellness rely on achieving balance & harmony. When a person is imbalanced/stressed they are more likely to develop disease. With Ayurveda we focus on implementing lifestyle interventions & natural treatments, therapies & remedies to help bring balance to your physical body, mind, spirit & the world around you.
Massage Therapy is a tool to help heal. Whether it's stress, illness or simply to pamper yourself, the benefits of massage can be life changing. I would be honored to take that journey with you.
Inspired by the Vedic Scriptures and practices of Ayurveda, this massage technique utilizes the use of hot activated organic oils blended with natural herbs, essential oils for your particular dosha, Vata (Air/Ether), Kapha (Water/Earth) Pitta (Fire/Water). This massage creates a relaxing effect for your mind, body's needs. Inducing healing, relaxation, rejuvenation. *WARNING* This is a very oily treatment. This is a full body treatment including feet, hair/head as well as glutes.
This is a dry massage using a triphala churna. This helps to tone, exfoliate the skin, reduces fat tissue & weight, makes the skin radiant and glowing, improving complexion as well as cleanses the skin removing toxins and body odor. **WARNING** This is a very messy treatment but well worth it. It can also aggravate Pitta Dosha
Herbal stems (bolus) are traditional massage tools used in Thailand & India for Ayurvedic practices since ancient time. Stem massage differs because is combines soothing heat with therapeutic natural herbs/resins & spices. These healing herbs resins & spices are absorbed into the bloodstream through the epidermis (skin) and react with the body's chemistry in a sympathetic and gentle way boosting emotional & physical wellbeing, improving blood & lymph circulation. It also stimulates internal organs.
