“Amazing hands on skills with great treatment room”
Sarah Thompson
À propos de Sarah
Dans ses motsHello, my name is Sarah Thompson, a Registered Massage Therapist here in Port Williams. I signify the 'Feather' of this exciting venture, Herb & Feather, with my husband, Ian.
My healing journey began almost seven years ago after several postnatal health conditions emerged with our son which resulted in seeking Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, Massage Therapy and Chiropractic care. Marvelous gains were made with our young son utilizing complementary modalities. Through this personal experience the floodgates were opened on my quest to join the realm of healing and bringing this innate passion to others.
I have graduated from the Canadian College of Massage and Hydrotherapy in Halifax, which allowed me the opportunity to participate in a variety of speciality massage student clinics focused on arthritis, invisible illnesses, neurological conditions, treatment focused and spa centred clinics. In addition, the unique training and focus on hydrotherapy I received has certainly added to my blooming repertoire dedicated to healing the human body. In addition, I have received my certification in Advanced Foot Massage, Cupping, Level 2 Reiki and Therapeutic Hot Stone Therapy. I also just successfully completed my 200 Hr Yoga Teacher Training Certification along with a specialized Certification in Yin Yoga.
I am feeling thrilled to offer Registered Massage Therapy in my home studio in Port Williams finished with a copper tub!
Feathers for me represent my connection to the higher realms, becoming free and flowing, the feeling of becoming more awake and aware.
Simple things for me have become finding more joy in the moment, becoming more present as a human, and as a mother and making new connections.

« *Please note, Sarah is unfortunately not currently accepting new clients for my Massage for Littles as I am at full capacity* Tina is still available and accepting new Little Clients. My colleague, RMT, Tina B that works with me is accepting new littles clients. Thank you so much for making this program a huge success. Through my educational journey I have had the pleasure of researching and learning about the profound impact of intentional touch on our littles physical and mental health. I have always believed that touch is a fundamental human need. Research studies have highlighted Massage Therapy as helping children with enhanced sleep quality, elevating a child's overall happiness, aiding with musculoskeletal pain from any injuries, relaxation, increasing body awareness and neurological development just to name a few of the benefits. Having two young children myself, I have used intentional touch since birth and overall, the gains have been instrumental. From regulating moods, calming the nervous system, bringing focus and presence to their day, littles can benefit tremendously from Massage Therapy. I look forward to being part of your child's healing journey.

« **Please note I, (Sarah) unfortunately have had to pause accepting any new clients as I am at full capacity. My colleague, Tina, is still accepting new clients**. Hot stone massage is a type of massage, also known as geo-thermo-therapy, where stones are heated with water. Hot stone massage follows the principles of hydrotherapy. While it can feel like a relaxation treatment, the stones are able to sink more deeply into the tissue for a satisfying and therapeutic effect
I will be using Basalt stones for this treatment, they are direct from the Andes Mountains. They are authentic volcanic stones that are hand picked from the river beds of the Andes Mountains in South America. They have all been naturally polished and smooth from the elements of the earth - retaining their high heat abilities.
The hot stones can be placed on the stomach, back, feet, chest, face, and even the toes and the palms of your hands.
The placement of the stones can help relieve pain in your problem areas and you will feel me alternating between using the hot stones and my hands for your full body massage.
Some of the noted benefits of hot stone:
Increases circulation
• Improves lymphatic circulation
• Decreases muscle and joint pain
• Decreases tension headaches
• Promotes increased well – being and vitality
• Reduces overall stress »Treatment FocusedNew patient
