As an active outdoor enthusiast with a physical occupation, Tara understands greatly the need for self-care and mind/body balance. The desire to achieve health and wellness in her own life, ignited a passion to help others enjoy optimal quality of life and gain greater ease and mobility in daily activities – both at work and play.

​

Tara’s journey as an RMT began 15 years ago, and has involved continuous learning and expanding her knowledge. In recent years, she became fascinated and curious about fascia and the complex and dynamic healing ability of the body. This led her to study Bio-Dynamic Fascial Integration (BFI).  

BFI is a holistic approach to treatment that looks beyond the site of injury and/or pain, integrates structure anatomy and function throughout the whole body and considers how they are interdependent to one another.

Jen is a 2008 graduate from West Coast College of Massage Therapy.  During treatments, Jen enjoys fostering a relaxing, quiet space to de-stress while at the same time working with a therapeutic focus. She uses a variety of techniques including myofascial release, cranio-sacral, trigger point therapy and swedish massage to help patients tap into their body’s innate wisdom to heal itself.  She looks forward to meeting you and helping you achieve your health goals. In her free time Jen enjoys surfing, camping, dancing and spending time on the trails with her dogs Piper and Roscoe.  

Laura graduated from the 3000 hour program at the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in New Westminster in 2009. She has also been working towards her Diploma in Osteopathy Manual Practice for the past five years. She has taken many Myofascial, Cranio-Sacral, Visceral manipulation, and joint mobilization courses which she utilizes in the majority of her treatments. 
 
She will take into account the whole body when assessing and treating people, for the location that pain is felt may not be the only contributing factor. She works specifically to create movement between adjacent tissues be it muscles, bones, ligaments, or organs to maintain or restore functional movement.
 
She understands how pain affects a person’s daily life as she has learned a lot from rehabilitating her own chronic pain problems. 

Laura is looking forward to meeting you and helping your body restore its optimal health.
