Katherine:

Katherine received her massage therapy education at Mount Royal University. She also has a bachelor of science in natural resources management and conservation science from the University of Northern BC. She was a trail builder for Alberta Parks for 5 years, so she knows the kind of treatment that hard-working bodies need! Her approach to massage therapy is that “it’s all about fascia”, so she targets the fascial network with myofascial technique and cupping. She recognizes that everyone responds best to their own unique pressure, pace and technique. Katherine thinks that targeting the nervous system is just as important as targeting muscles, and that relaxation is a critical part of recovery.

Katherine is in her third year of osteopathy school in Vancouver.
