Registered Massage Therapy (RMT)

Registered Massage Therapists can target your problem areas during a massage and help with the prevention of ongoing soft tissue pain.

Regular massage therapy sessions can help create a well balanced, stress-free body, mind and spirit for good health. Registered massage therapists in BC are highly qualified professionals with training of over 3000 hours of practical and academic experience. Their educational requirements have high standards to accept medical referrals. RMT’s carry professional liability insurance and can supply medical receipts for extended medical health benefits, RCMP medical, WCB, ICBC. Every 2 years they are required to accumulate accredited courses to upgrade their specialties in massage therapy. 

Choosing the best soft tissue technique is key to a healthy structural alignment. Balancing the muscles to move correctly pain free will help relax the nervous system.

Athletic Therapy

Certified Athletic Therapist Marie-Eve is currently taking a short leave of absence to upgrade her credentials. Call us for any inquires for Rehab.

Certified Athletic Therapists are best known for their quick-thinking on-field emergency care of professional and elite athletes. The first to respond when someone gets hurt, they are experts at injury assessment and rehabilitation. It’s that same mix of on-site care and active rehabilitation skills that makes Athletic Therapists so effective in treating the musculoskeletal (muscles, bones, and joints) injuries of all Canadians, whether on the field or in the clinic.

Athletic Therapists Treat:

  • Common injuries from falls daily activities and sports
  • Chronic and recurring conditions, pre-surgery and post-surgery
  • Emergencies at sporting events such as concussion, fractures, and spinal injuries
  • Workplace and motor vehicle accidents

Athletic therapists adhere to the Sports Medicine Model of care. They treat a wide range of patients, from kids with concussions to seniors recovering from hip replacement surgery, using various manual therapies, modalities, exercise prescription, and even bracing and taping. The treatment varies but the objective does not: an Athletic Therapist’s goal is to help clients return to their usual activities, whether that means playing competitive sports in Whistler or simply walking to the mailbox and back.

Osteopathic Manual Practitioner

Osteopathic Practitioners treat people of all ages, from newborns to seniors. If you are experiencing pain or dysfunction, or want to take preventative measures to improve your health, Osteopathy can help.

Osteopathy is a safe and effective patient-centred manual therapy which works in combination with the individuals own homeostatic mechanisms to help restore balance and optimal health. It works with the understanding that the way the body is able to function is inseparable from the way it is structured. All aspects of the body must work together to maintain health and the osteopathic approach is able to address the person as a whole to improve not only structure and therefore function but overall health and wellbeing.

Osteopathic practitioners support the body’s ability to restore and maintain health by using skilled palpation and manual techniques to influence muscles, joints, nerves, connective tissue, circulation and internal organs. Osteopathy is drug and surgery free. It optimizes the body’s ability to heal itself and achieve balance. Benefits include: Pain relief, Increased range of motion, Increased circulation, Trauma healing, Hormonal balance, Decreased stress and tension and Improved posture.

Our approach is unique because we combine a detailed knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the human body, with the philosophy of osteopathic healthcare. We aim to find the root cause of your pain and not just treat the symptoms.

Osteopathy - improve overall health and wellbeing

Naturopathic Medicine

Naturopathic medicine is a practice of blending the best of human sciences and our own innate healing to help our bodies heal and find optimal health. When we feel empowered, energized, and excited about our path to healing, we can access a deeper level of well-being and happiness.

Naturopathic Medicine is a patient-centered approach to health using evidence-based medicines combined with age old wisdom, by listening to the symptoms your body is giving with our needs for nutrition and digestion, sleep, stress reduction, cleansing, and hormonal balance.

Whether you are:

  • Recently diagnosed with a disease and want to try an alternative approach
  • Wanting to optimize your health with a proactive and prevention based plan
  • Living with a chronic illness and you want a fresh approach and new ideas to complement your current treatments

As Naturopathic Physicians, we are both primary care providers and specialists in natural medicine. We figure out why our patients aren’t feeling well and support them using the most natural ways to help their body heal. We believe in educating and empowering our patients so they can make healthy choices for themselves, their families, and our environment.

Yamuna® Body Rolling

Yamuna® Body Rolling is a fun way of learning how to roll out all those muscle knots and congested areas of lactic acid that builds up in muscles after exercising. Ball rolling takes little time and is very relaxing. 

Yamuna Body Rolling is a great exercise that helps condition your core and relieve muscle tension. It has gained popularity with many Massage therapists, Physiotherapists, Yoga instructors, and Pilates instructors for its effective way of deeply stretching muscles and releasing connective tissue restrictions at the joint deep to the bone. It is a great self maintenance stretching exercise to help clients keep flexibility between massage treatments, but also creates self body awareness and core stability. It’s the best way to feel relaxed when stretching.

Yamuna body balls are unique 6-10 inch release balls that are specially designed in stability and size to reach all those areas of muscle attachments close the bone. The suppleness and elasticity allows forgiveness into the balls while lying, relaxing and rolling over the balls. There is no better way to learn to relax those over stimulated muscles in a easy to learn movement pattern helping the whole body balance in less time than regular stretching classes. 

Stretch and massage muscles after exercise at home! We sell Yamuna balls at the studiocontact us for details.
