WellingtonPentagon_edited.png

Massage therapy treatment has a therapeutic effect on the body and optimizes health and well-being.   By acting on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems physical function can be developed, maintained and improved.  Physical dysfunction and pain and the effects of stress can be relieved or prevented with the use of massage therapy.  Massage therapy consists primarily of hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body for the purpose of optimizing health.

 

We direct bill to most Extended Health companies.

Mikayla Ritter

REGISTERED MASSAGE THERAPIST

Mikayla has been practicing as an RMT since November 2017. With a more slow, focused technique, she enjoys providing a relaxing, yet therapeutic massage experience. Interested in chronic pain management & mental health, Mikayla tailors her massage sessions to the needs of each person coming in. As Mikayla is interested in the wellbeing of  each individual, please come in expecting an initial assessment (this will range anywhere from 5-15 minutes within the time of your massage; giving Mikayla an understanding of your health history). A management plan will also be brought up before the end of your treatment (this is home care that depending on the interest of the patient can look like a recommendation for what to do after massage, or an exercise/resource plan to help with long term improvement/pain
reduction— this is not mandatory, but Mikayla is happy to discuss what can further help patients). Mikayla prioritizes creating a safe space for her patients. She also understands that each person has different needs, & will work with you  to find what works best for you! Outside of work, Mikayla enjoys being in nature, reading, swimming & looks forward to
adopting a dog in the near future with her husband.

Please note that Mikayla is not accepting ICBC or WSBC clients.

Taylor Logan

REGISTERED MASSAGE THERAPIST

At a young age, she remembers being interested in massage through her auntie, who was taking a course at the time, and from there her curiosity only stemmed. Throughout school, she was always an avid learner enjoying sciences, maths and playing team sports. However, later in life found a deeper enjoyment in inquiring to slow down and notice how the body and mind are connected.

 

Therefore, this led her to dive into yoga as a dedicated student, and proved to be very helpful in her personal life, aiding to give her the tools to be more aware, less reactive and more kind to herself. To deepen her knowledge even further, she completed her Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) in Costa Rica of 2018, with the intention to share this practice with others and allow more people to find the peace that yoga brings her.

 

The marriage of yoga and massage happened organically when Taylor took a Yin Yoga Training, further learning about the muscles, fascia and holding patterns of the body and realized how much she enjoyed diving into the anatomy of the human body in this YTT. Taylor treats each human being as a dynamic individual, looking into their particular needs and listening to their goals. She enjoys and feels honoured in being part of someone’s path to become more connected to their body, mind and soul and aid in facilitating someone’s healing journey.

Please note that Taylor is not accepting ICBC or WSBC clients.

Felicia Giesbrecht
REGISTERED MASSAGE THERAPIST

she/her/her's

 

Felicia's journey into the health and wellness field began over ten years ago as a personal trainer. 

Throughout those years she developed the belief that wellness was more than about the physical body, and to achieve overall wellness the mind and spirt aspects must be taken into consideration too. This belief is what lead her to further her education towards taking a more holistic approach to her client’s well-being, graduating from CSNN as a Holistic Nutritionist in 2013 and completing her Reiki Second Degree in 2018. 

 

On a more personal level, Felicia became a mom to a baby girl in 2011.  Her girl is her biggest inspiration to continuously move forward to be the best version of herself. Eventually, this inspiration led her to train herself and others for various fitness events like, Femsport, and Tough Mudder. 

 

While all these experiences contributed to her decision to pursue a career in massage therapy, a close look into her dear friend's journey with cancer played a substantial role in this final decision. During that time, she witnessed many health care professionals cross her friend's path, however, the effects the massage therapist had on her friend’s well-being were most memorable.  It was during these appointments that her friend experienced the longest periods of momentary mental peace and physical relief.  Witnessing this ignited in Felicia an even deeper passion to support others along their health and wellness journey.
