Ameliorating Touch Massage Therapy

Out of Office Reminder!

Just a friendly reminder that I will be away from the studio from May 15–25, 2026 and will have limited access to texts and emails during this time. Responses may be delayed until I return.

I also no longer have any appointment availability remaining before I leave, but I’ll be happy to help arrange bookings or reschedules for after May 25 once I’m back in the studio.

Thank you for your patience and understanding, and I look forward to seeing you soon!😊

May Availability 🤍

Here’s my availability for May as we move into a new month of care and reset.

Please note that I will be away from May 15–25, and will not be available for appointments during this time. I encourage anyone hoping to book around that window to reach out early, as spots before and after my time away tend to fill quickly.

As always, you can view current openings or join the waitlist if your preferred time isn’t available—I’ll do my best to accommodate where I can.

Looking forward to seeing you in studio this month 🤍

Walking for something bigger 🤍

I’m currently taking part in the Canadian Cancer Society’s Walk for Cancer, aiming to complete 50km this month in support of an incredible cause.

As of today, I’ve completed 7.78km, and it’s been a beautiful reminder that progress doesn’t have to be big to be meaningful—small steps really do build over time.

If you’re able, I would be so grateful for any donations in support of cancer research and care services. Every contribution makes a difference.

And if you’re not able to donate, I invite you to still be part of it in your own way—by stepping outside, taking a short walk, or creating a small moment of pause in your day.

It all adds up 🤍

🌿 Spring Update + April Availability 🌿

As we ease into spring, there’s often a gentle shift—longer days, a bit more light, and a natural pull to come out of winter. It can also be a time where the body is still catching up, needing a little extra care and support.

I wanted to share a few small updates from the studio:
• Memberships will be retired as of April 1
• A simple re-booking option is now available to support more consistent care
• The studio will be closed May 15–25

Following along with last week’s post, I’ll also be taking part in the Walk 50km for Cancer this April—something that feels very close to my heart 🤍 If it feels meaningful to you, you’re welcome to learn more or join in through the link in my bio.

April availability is now open, including some evening and weekend appointments. If your body has been asking for a little attention, this can be a nice time to get something in the calendar.

As always, you’re welcome to book whenever it feels supportive for you.

Wishing you a season with a little more lightness, ease, and care 🌸

🌿 New Offering: Oncology Massage

At the end of February (February 26–28), I travelled to Edmonton to complete Authentic Roots: Oncology Massage Training with the wonderful Jen and an incredible group of practitioners. It was an inspiring few days that deepened my understanding of how to safely and compassionately support clients who are currently undergoing cancer treatment or who have been affected by cancer.

Oncology massage is an adaptive approach to massage therapy. Sessions are thoughtfully tailored based on each client’s diagnosis, treatment history, and how they are feeling that day.

For those who have received massage in the past, this may look a little different than what you’re used to — but these adaptations allow massage to remain a supportive and safe option during a very complex time.

My goal is always to provide a calm, supportive space where your body can rest and your nervous system can settle.

If you or someone you know may benefit from oncology-informed massage care, you’re welcome to reach out to learn more. 🤍

📋 Why Health History Forms Matter

A gentle reminder about the importance of keeping your Client Intake and Health History forms up to date.

These forms help me provide care that is safe, supportive, and tailored to your needs. Completing them 24–48 hours before your appointment allows time to review your information and note any considerations or adjustments that may support your session.

Updating your health history:
• supports your safety and comfort
• allows sessions to be thoughtfully adapted to your needs
• ensures appropriate time and setup if additional supports are helpful

Clients are asked to update their health history at least once per year, and anytime there are changes to medications, diagnoses, injuries, or other health-related information. Significant updates to clinic or studio policies may also require a new intake form.

For certain treatments (such as cupping or work in more sensitive areas), or for specific health circumstances (including oncology-focused care), additional forms may be needed to ensure your session is approached with care and intention.

Thank you for taking the time to share this information—it plays an important role in creating a safe and supportive experience for you. 🌿

March general availability 🌿

Thank you so much to everyone who reached out with birthday wishes last week — I truly felt the love and appreciate this community more than you know. 🤍

A few scheduling notes for upcoming time away:
• This week: February 26–28
• March 23–25
• Extended time off: April 11–19

If you have a preference for evenings or weekends in April, I encourage you to pre-book, as those appointments will be more limited with the time away. My schedule runs on a rolling two-month basis, so most of April is now open for booking.

And a gentle heads up that there will be a pricing adjustment effective April 1 — further details to follow.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support. ✨

Wondering what to expect when you come in for a session? 🤍

I’ve put together a gentle step-by-step walkthrough—from booking to follow-up—so you can arrive feeling informed, at ease, and supported.

From creating your account and settling into the studio, to check-ins, quiet moments on the table, and thoughtful wrap-up care afterward, everything is designed with your comfort and safety in mind. There’s no rush, no pressure—just space to breathe, soften, and be cared for.

If you’re new here, I hope this helps ease any nerves. And if you’ve been in before, think of this as a little refresher before your next visit.

I’m grateful to be part of your care, every step of the way. ✨

It’s been a moment since I last shared here. Sometimes the most supportive thing we can do is step back, slow down, and tend to our own nervous systems.

For me, that meant a peaceful walk through a favourite park — fresh air, slower steps, and a few curious birds keeping me company. 🐦

February availability is now available, with some days filling more quickly than others. I’ll be away from the studio on February 20 and February 26–28.

If you’ve been considering booking, this may be a supportive time to do so.

I’d love to welcome you into the studio.
