About Lesli

Lesli Smith has been in practice since 1997 having graduated from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy. She quickly recognized that this was just the starting point and there was much more to the human body and its complexities; therefore embarking on a journey to expand her knowledge and skill set to become an expert in a variety of treatment techniques. So much so that she is a regular Teaching Assistant for a variety of post graduate courses. Lesli Is a caring Therapist that continually works to improve her skill set. Her interests gravitated towards more subtler techniques, with profound more systemic changes (affecting the whole being). Having a broad knowledge base allows Lesli to take a wholistic approach, each treatment is tailored to your individual needs, depending on how a person presents at each sessions. Lesli has a unique skill set that allows her to assess her patients and determine the source of the issues. She has an understanding of what structures can be involved and may be influencing recovery. Some of the techiniques that she has studied and integrated into her practice include: Advanced Cranial Therapy/Biodynamic Cranial Sacral (excellent for head trauma, headaches and TMJ/jaw problems); Visceral Manipulation (treating the organs); Muscle Energy Technique (a gentle way to encourage proper alignment and motion in the spine, pelvis and ribs); Myofascial Release; Muscle Balance and Functional Development exercise system and Dermo Neuro Modulation (treating the nerves to help ease pain). To support her continued growth and knowledge base Lesli is involved in an on going study group that meets monthly with a mentor that has been in practice for over 55 years (he is a Physiotherapist that knows a lot of stuff!) To really understand things there is no better way than to teach others. Lesli has been involved in the profession as a Teaching Assistant since 2001. Some of the courses she has assisted with are: Advanced Cranial Therapy; Visual Assessment (decoding the structural imbalances of posture); Simply TMJ (TMJ/jaw dysfunction); Muscle Energy Technique for the neck, low back and sacrum; Osteotech (introduction to osteopathic techniques) for the arms and legs (joint mobilizations for the arm and leg complexes). Things to expect during your treatment time. Each treatment begins with a conversation about your concerns, and overall body assessment to consider a best treatment plan for each session. Assessment is on going throughout the treatment as the body shifts new things may come to light that require attention. Open dialogue and input is encouraged, as working together is a sound approach to health and wellness. Lesli is concerned about wellness and not just treating a problem. Encouraging homeostasis, health and harmony is a long term, ongoing treatment goal. Before starting her career as a massage therapist she attained a Diploma in honors Standing in Kinesiology from the University of Western Ontario and a BA in Psychology.
