Integrated Wellness

A whole-person approach integrates physical, mental, and emotional well-being. I believe that healing requires us to focus on bringing balance to the nervous system, supporting all facets of our health and wellness.

As a practitioner, my approach uses a variety of gentle techniques with the intention of creating a change or shift within the nervous system. The goal of this integrated approach is to restore range of motion and mobility, improve circulation, reduce pain, promote relaxation, increase resiliency to stress and anxiety, and calm and balance your mind and body.

Currently, all massage therapy services are available at Thrive Family Chiropractic located in Okotoks, Alberta. Click here to learn more about their practice or book an appointment.

My Story

I have been to numerous massage therapists and met Shanda over a year ago. It was during my initial session with her that I knew that my body would respond well to her style of massage. It seemed to me that this was the first time my body was being invited to relax and not "forced to do so". This difference in approach has allowed me to experience relaxation of deep core muscles and as a result, I move easier and without pain. She has also helped me with scar tissue that was the result of surgery and radiation. I know Shanda continues to explore different modalities of healing and she brings these skills to her massage practice. Her quiet, calm, and generous presence also play a part in the healing. I always leave feeling restored - both body and spirit. I have recommended Shanda to my friends and have no problem recommending her to you.
