She has also found massive success in improving the performance of young active clients and prolonging the performance of mature clients, helping them enjoy a healthy body for years to come. Quote: “I always say it’s better to be in pain from working out, than from not working out. More often than not, my clients spend the majority of their life sitting at a desk, a position that takes a lot of exercise and understanding to combat. Imagine doing any other activity for 40 hours a week and think of the physical repercussions that would manifest; it’s just unnatural. I encourage my clients to stretch, strengthen and choose multiple physical therapies to help maintain their body’s original function, to help them live a long, happy and pain free life.” Education: Carleton University: Mass Communications (2008) Kikkawa College: Massage Therapy Diploma Program (2010) Canadian Lab Science Training Centre (LPG): Endermologie (2010) Thai Massage School of Chiang Mai, Thailand: Foundations of Thai Massage (2011) WSPS Certification Course: Office Ergonomic Assessments (Oct 2014) Career Highlights: Three published pieces in the Toronto e-news regarding massage therapy and physical well being (2012-2014) Professional Speaker: General Mill’s Canada and JTI Macdonald, lecture on Massage Therapy in Corporate Settings (2013) Valedictorian Kikkawa College class of 2010 ½ Marathon Competitor (2008)
