Kristin does not offer “deep tissue” massage.

I graduated with honours from Georgian College in my home town of Barrie Ontario in 2007 and worked alongside Physiotherapists for 5 years treating clients with varied issues, such as back pain, injuries due to whiplash, post-op scar tissue, stroke recovery just to name a few. I have also had some fulfilling experience treating the elderly. I cherished spending quality time maintaining or improving mobility and circulation and providing comfort measures for these lovely people during their golden years. My goal as a massage therapist is to ensure treatment goals are met by actively listening and maintaining open lines of communication to ensure effective and appropriate modalities are used. Simply put, my clients leave feeling better. I’m also trained in Indie Head massage, which is a blissful 30-45min treatment using a variety of techniques to just the head, face, neck and shoulders. Give it a try! I’m available evenings and weekends to accommodate your schedule. I look forward to meeting you!

Earlier in my career, I worked as a massage therapist at clinics that also provided physiotherapy, chiropractic care and kinesiology services.

Through the years, I have integrated my background in Swedish massage with my progressive experience with Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Therapy and Neuromuscular Technique (NMT), adapting and combining these treatments for a variety of therapeutic and relaxation needs.

I have also helped manage chronic pain and maintained muscle and tissue health in clients with Fibromyalgia and M.S.

I have a growing interest working with caregivers (of a loved one who has a life-threatening or life-altering illness) who can benefit from massage therapy to ease stress in their time of self-care. I really enjoy and thrive on making people feel better, whether it is directly injury/pain related or just to help ease the stress/anxiety of life and circumstance as I am seeing more and more as the Pandemic has steadily woven itself into our lives over this past year.

In her heart, Andrea hopes that her treatments offer a space where each client can feel increasingly at home in their body.

She brings a caring and compassionate approach to the table and is equally happy to offer any variation of light, moderate or deep pressure.

She listens to her clients’ goals for treatment as well as their explanations of symptoms to guide her. She will perform a short assessment, where relevant, to clarify the tissues involved in pain.

She has successfully helped to manage or resolve postural concerns, tension headaches, neck pain, back pain, shoulder pain, tennis and golfer’s elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, nerve entrapment symptoms, hip pain, knee pain, plantar fasciitis, thoracic outlet syndrome, trigger point pain, stress tension, anxiety, insomnia, and more.

Techniques used vary with each treatment and may include Swedish massage, myofascial release, gentle joint mobilizations, trigger point therapy, Golgi tendon organ release, PNF stretching, passive stretching, and pin and stretch. She is always happy to offer homecare and remedial exercises to enhance well-being and encourage the resolution of symptoms.

On a personal note, she loves walking and being in the woods, dogs and all animals, and learning about wellness and healing. She strives to stay current with evidence-based massage therapy practices.

She feels it is her duty to share, according to current research, the “side effects” of massage therapy may include restful sleep, fewer headaches, less pain, improved posture, lower stress levels and a stronger immune system.
