Lisa has been an active individual for most of her life, growing up
playing soccer, rock climbing, skiing and hiking. Here is where she
gained an appreciation of her body's innate capabilities and
inspiration to promote optimal movement patterns. This led her to
study Kinesiology at the University of British Columbia and then
Massage Therapy at Sutherland Chan in Toronto.
School gave her knowledge about the mechanics involved with the
neuromuscular system, and the processes going on during various
activities. She uses this information along with an understanding of
how your body works together as a whole when in relation to its
environment to best support your body's ability to get back into
alignment.
Through many years of experience, techniques such as trigger point
therapy, facial work, functional movement patterns, dynamic
stretching, rhythmic techniques, mindfulness and more have shown to be
an effective way of relieving pain, increasing range of motion and
allowing you to get back to the activities you love.
Lisa enjoys treating a variety of ailments and is keen to work with
you in order to find what works best for your body. By looking at how
each muscle group plays a part in your postural alignment we can
determine what type of stimulation it may need and provide the
necessary self care and movement patterns to get you moving freely.
Lisa is passionate about working with you to help facilitate a calm
nervous system and efficient movement patterns that will in turn
expand your own awareness and ability to heal.
