MASSAGE THERAPY, she/her
Laura West, RMT
About: Laura has been practicing massage since 2014, when she graduated from MacEwan University. Since then she has had the privilege of helping a large variety of people with their individual health journeys.
Her absolute favourite part of massage is helping her clients find “that” moment of quiet, and deep relaxation. Most of us live our lives dealing with high levels of daily stress, so much so that we think it’s our normal. Laura likes to remind her clients how valuable bringing our bodies and minds back to a relaxed state can be for our overall health and wellbeing.
Laura also fully believes in the uniqueness of every person she treats. She loves to pull from her various modalities to create a treatment plan that honours that uniqueness.
Beyond relaxation, and deep tissue massage, Laura is also trained in myofascial cupping, therapeutic hot stone massage, pre and postnatal massage, Reiki, and reflexology.
Notable: Before studying massage therapy, Laura completed the Holistic Health Practitioner program through MacEwan University where she studied Reiki, reflexology, and beginner herbology. She then went on to complete her Reiki Master certification.
Fav thing to treat: Those extra ooey gooey melty relaxation spots. Scalp, face, hands, feet, gimme them all!
Fun Facts: Laura was a professional belly dancer for over a decade. She was also a fire performer and knows how to eat a mean flame!
Personal hell: Overheating, itchy clothes, and crowded malls.
Don’t be embarrassed if: You have questions! Before, during, or after your treatment, the time is all about you. Plus RMTs love to chat about massage.
