Melanie enjoys connecting with people to understand how massage therapy can support their health goals. She is curious to find out which daily habits might be affecting how your body feels. Your health history, occupation, physical activity levels, sleep positions, or hobbies can paint a picture of how you move your body. Providing this information assists her with creating an individualized safe and effective treatment plan.

Your informed consent is an essential part of massage therapy. This means that we will discuss the areas of the body to be treated, the risks and benefits of massage and draping of linens for patient modesty. She strives to empower patients to ask questions, modify or withdraw their consent before, during or at future appointments. 

Melanie has over ten years of work experience in administrative disability management and occupation health & safety. She changed careers to avoid working in a sedentary work environment and loves having an active career as a healthcare professional. She graduated from the Registered Massage Therapy diploma program at Langara College.
