Tatiana Townsend, RMT

Tatiana has an extensive background as a health practitioner, having worked in private and public practices such as physiotherapy clinics, spas and health care centres. She is well known in the massage community in Ottawa.

Tatiana's scope of practice is not limited to certain age groups or conditions. Through her practice, she has treated various conditions, including, but not limited to, sports injuries and motor vehicle accident injuries, migraine/tension headache, sciatica, joint pain (including TMJ, back pain, frozen shoulders, etc), repetitive strain injuries (RSI), plantar fasciitis, stress, anxiety, PTSD, digestive disorders, post-concussion rehabilitation, and post surgery rehabilitation.

As a manual osteopathic practitioner, she specializes in body alignment. Tatiana believes in a holistic and cooperative approach to treatment, believing in the importance of strengthening and balancing a body, mind and spirit. She provides additional recommendations and corrections as home care to clients. She understand that there is not a "one-size-fits-all" method for treatment, and as such, employs a variety of techniques such as: Swedish massage, Muscle Energy Technique, Myofascial Release, trigger point release, manual lymphatic drainage, cupping, craniosacral therapy, body alignment principle and method, and more.

She is constantly furthering her knowledge, currently learning Face Yoga Method, a facial fitness technique which helps to maintain and correct face muscle imbalances in a natural way, to preserve natural beauty. She is also continuing to develop her knowledge in post concussion rehabilitation methods through osteopathy.

She enjoys spending her time with family and friends, doing her meditation, face yoga, Reiki, some spiritual activities, as well as reading .

Tatiana Townsend
