Had an amazing massage today with Rachel at The Center for Wholeness & Well Being.
Hadn’t seen her since she moved locations and I didn’t realize it was going to be in a salt room - my first time in one. Really enjoyed it. 🌊💕

I'm seeing a lot of traffic coming by and I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself for anyone new.
(I was on season 2 ep17 of ISAW Podcast if you want to hear me talk a little about what I do and how I work) - shout out guys!
My name is Leanne, I've been a practicing massage therapist (RMT) for 24yrs this year - crazy! My training is clinical massage therapy, specializing in myofascial work - meaning I'm not just here to grease people up and I do not offer 'traditional relaxation massage' like at a spa or on the beach. I am excited to assess your posture, myofasical lines of tension, your movement and hear in depth about your health history and where you're at in your body - to help you feel and function your best, so you can live your best life.
My home-based practice has been on hiatus due to having to move in 2023 and did not have a space I could operate out of to continue for the time being. I do work at The Glencoe Club and still keeping an eye out for a space.
I am working on some things I'm excited about and always happy to hear from you, how you're doing and what you'd like to see happen or how I might be able to help you.
"You don't have to feel tomorrow, how you are feeling today!"
"You are only as young as how mobile your tissues feel."
"You are a walking picture of everything your body has ever experienced."
Many of you know know how much I love a delicious dark roast coffee... or an americano misto - it truly makes my heart happy - to sip, to smell, to savour.
Those of you who have worked with me, also know that I don't encourage tipping - it's just how I was trained to view myself. As a health professional - and I know some of you find this is a challenge, as in many places massage practitioners expect tips.
I love the thought of you keeping that money to re-invest in yourself - be it a follow up visit with me, or something for your own health, wellness and joy.
So.. here's something I'm playing with -
(Shout out ISAW Podcast for introducing me to this idea)
If you have worked with me, or we've shared conversation around what I do and information that I share and have found it helpful - and you'd like to support and encourage me to share more of myself in this way - I invite you to follow the link and check it out.
Many of you know I've held back out of shyness and your encouragement will motivate me to put myself out there.
Thank you so much for being part of my practice.

Wow. What an amazing summer!
Realized my long standing goal to be home with the family on the east coast, working for the summer in NS - but settled back in Calgary now, a full first week back to work at The Glencoe Club in the wellness center behind me.
So good to see everyone and get back to the supportive clients and fellow staff in Wellness, who have been patiently waiting for me to return. It's going to be a crazy busy end of the year! Excited and grateful to assist everyone with their health/massage therapy goals.
Let’s find your hip flexors! From a standing position, lift your knee up toward your chest. The main muscles that contract to make this movement possible are...

Hard to believe how fast the summer has flown by. I have been working in Nova Scotia for the summer, so I could have an extended visit with my family. Only have 6 shifts left and in two weeks or so, I'll be getting on the road to head west again - back to Calgary the first week of October and back to work after Thanksgiving.
In the meantime, feel free to reach out if you have any question.
Just make sure you let me know who you are and mention my page for context.
I know my home practice has been on hiatus, and am also off for the summer right now from The Glencoe... but feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to touch base on anything.

Live Well! Massage Therapy is a private home-based massage therapy practice, owned and operated by Leanne Thompson, RMT and has been operating since November 2003.
Live Well! Massage Therapy is a licensed business with the City of Calgary and Leanne has been a Registered Massage Therapist with the Massage Therapy Association of Alberta, since 2001.
Leanne graduated from ICT Northumberland College, in Halifax, NS - receiving her diploma after completing a 2 year, 2200hr massage therapy program, in July 2001 and has been professionally practicing as a Registered Massage Therapist in Calgary, Alberta since October 2001.
Leanne specializes in myofascial release. This approach to massage involves techniques to improve pain and chronic tensions caused by restrictions within the connective tissue system - which is continuous throughout the entire body, potentially affecting function and/or creating symptoms just about anywhere.
You are a walking picture of everything your body has ever experienced. Leanne will go over your health history with you, looking for events and patterns that may have contributed to what you are experiencing today – in order to be as safe and effective as possible in achieving your treatment goals. She will “listen” to the body to bring a deeper sense of relaxation that can last beyond time spent on the massage table, that comes from returning the body back to neutral alignment, reducing postural tension.
Some of the modalities Leanne may incorporate:
Myofascial Release
Trigger Point Therapy
Deep Tissue Massage
Craniosacral Therapy
Visceral Manipulation
Lymphatic Balancing
Cupping
*She also offers Clinical Breast Massage and Intra-Oral massage.
Ask what is appropriate for you!
Leanne understands that everything (including the body) is energy and has also trained in various forms of energy healing work - such as Reiki, Pranic Healing and the Akashic Records to name a few. She has always been interested in human behavior, emotion and the mind-body connection, so has enjoyed studying some psychology and Life Coaching as well.
