At the heart of Marie's massage therapy practice is her comprehension and appreciation for the human body's ability to rejuvenate and heal. Creating a supportive space and tailoring each treatment session to encourage these processes are her goals.
Through listening, assessment and evaluation of their particular conditions, Marie develops a treatment plan for each client.
Each session includes a combination of manual techniques such as swedish massage, myofascial release, muscle energy technique, passive stretching, joint mobilization, neuromuscular technique with continuous re-evaluation through palpitation, passive range of motion, landmarking and muscle length testing.
Techniques that encourage the reduction of physical and emotional stresses are included as well as complementary home-care advice, postural education, stretch/strengthen exercises and hydrotherapy.
