Welcome to Rae’s journey and her continuing practice as a Massage Therapist. She looks forward to helping you facilitate your own
journey!
She is seated in the listening to the language of the body as this helps to determine the right tools for working with an individual and making sure their tissues~mind~heart are responsive. She centers her practice in the belief that all beings know their body best - their healing journey matters, sometimes only a little encouragement and understanding is needed for the body~mind to heal itself.
After graduating from the Sutherland-Chan Massage Therapy Program in 2015, (Toronto, ON) Rae’s heart brought her back to the West, now calling Banff home. She first stepped into the healing arts in 2010 with Reflexology at Mount Royal University (Calgary, AB) and integrates this method into her practice. Its use for postural alignment, lymphatic activation and holistic well being stands out. Alongside this system her interests are but not limited to *scar
mobilization (including post-mastectomy), post-surgical recovery, core rotation issues from habituation, breathing the body into
alignment and current or chronic neck and back pain*. In the past ten years she has broadened her education to include; TMD (Temporomandibular dysfunction) or ‘Jaw Tension’, Pelvic Floor Connections and Disharmony, along with extensive Lymphatic Therapy and Brain Therapy training with the Chikly Institute. This education has been an asset to helping those with *tension headaches,
anxiety, caesarean section restrictions (new or old), chronic back pain, those suffering from ‘groin pulls’, post joint replacement surgery, digestive and immune issues*. In all these areas you’ll often find her using dynamic movement, breath coaching, myofascial release and lymphatic drainage to achieve results that the individual and therapist
can be pleased with.
Outside of being an RMT she has been practicing yoga since 2000, recently began practicing Tai Chi, has an affinity for herbs and gardening, a love for aromatherapy and has a grand appreciation for moving slow with breath.
