We have a new member!!!
My name is Peter Hanna and I am delighted to be joining the Active Life Centre. I am a Massage Therapy graduate from Ontario, and just recently moved here to Alberta.
Before my move, I had researched different clinics in St. Albert and around the Edmonton area. It didn’t take me long before hearing about the excellent reputation of Active Life Centre.
I can say with confidence, joining a highly established community of fellow professional therapists was one of the best decisions I have made since moving here.
I have an extensive background in healthcare and originally began my career as a Bachelor of Science graduate in Pharmaceutical Sciences. My experience working in clinical settings within pharmacies and healthcare clinics have helped me efficiently manage through patient concerns. I have effectively worked alongside patients and other healthcare professionals and I respectfully support the decisions of informed patients.
Patient care and recovery have always been the heart of my professional role; and having the opportunity of practicing Massage Therapy in clinics, at retirement homes, and at gyms and recreational centres have given me the experience and confidence to help manage diverse conditions.
Although my original experiences in healthcare have been more inclined towards allopathy, also known as modern medicine, I have experienced firsthand the many advantages of a more holistic approach to health,
such as massage therapy.
Massage Therapy and other recognized alternative therapies offer such a multifaceted and well-rounded course that have survived the test of time, as most have been rooted on ancient clinical methods. Massage Therapy offers a widely accepted and universally recognized approach to health that has profound beneficial outcomes on one’s psychological, physiological, and spiritual wellness.
My training in Massage Therapy includes Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Lymphatic Drainage, Trigger-Point Therapy, Stretching,
Myofascial Techniques and Hydro-therapy.
Having the opportunity to practice in gyms and recreational centres has awarded me an experience and appreciation for the high demands required of an athlete’s body. This appreciation also extends to the wide benefits of Sport Massage in maintaining and improving maximum performance and physical conditioning to promote recovery.
Finally, I have been welcomed by such a great and professional team at the Active Life Centre and I am confident your decision to improve the overall health and well-being of you and your family will be experienced here at our clinic.
I look forward to meeting you and I encourage you to book your first session with me in the near future!
Pete
