Elizabeth’s career journey into massage and manual therapies began when she enrolled in the one-year full time Shiatsu Therapy program at Sourcepoint Shiatsu Centre, graduating in 2006. She then became registered with the Shiatsu Therapy Association of BC. Elizabeth realized a long-time goal of becoming a Registered Massage Therapist when she graduated from the Langara College RMT program in 2019. She enjoys incorporating a holistic balance of eastern medicine philosophy with western modalities into her treatments and is always seeking to discover the root cause of a person’s pain and discomfort and bring them back to harmony and balance.

Some chronic conditions she treats successfully include thoracic outlet and carpal tunnel syndromes, frozen shoulder, tendonitis, sacroiliac joint dysfunctions, tension headaches, neck/back pain, foot pain, severe muscle tension, and postural imbalances such as “head forward posture” (with associated neck/shoulder pain) and hyperlordosis of the lower back. She achieves this through applying myofascial release, deep tissue techniques, joint mobilizations, nerve decompression, neuromuscular techniques, muscle balancing (agonist/antagonist concept) and stretching. Since graduating in 2019, Elizabeth has completed several courses in advanced orthopedic assessment and treatments in sacral balancing, hip/pelvis assessment and treatment, and deep tissue techniques. She plans to enroll in the neck/thoracic/rib advanced orthopedic assessment and treatment courses, among others, in the near future. Her main passions and joy in life is helping others reach their health goals, self-improvement and personal growth. Elizabeth receives consistent positive reviews and feedback of long-lasting pain relief and also referrals from her clients to their spouses, family, coworkers and friends.

Outside the clinic, Elizabeth enjoys researching and increasing her knowledge on health topics and personal growth, quiet nature walks and hiking with friends, home workouts, meditation, yoga, off-grid living research/exploration, and being on the ocean.
