Grace struggled with chronic sports-related injuries for several years until massage therapy gave her the means to live pain-free again. This transformation inspired her to complete the 3000 hour RMT training at Vancouver College of Massage Therapy and become a RMT in 2014. Grace aims to make her clients feel at ease and will work with clients to design individual treatment plans that will get them back to a healthy and functional state. She strongly believes that education on body awareness is an integral part of the therapy, and to get better one must not only address the symptoms, but understand the cause of the pain. Through techniques such as Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Therapy, Muscle Energy Techniques, and deep tissue Swedish Massage, Grace can help relieve effects of stress, acute as well as chronic issues, headaches, and repetitive motion injuries. Since she has always had a strong passion in working with athletes, she is proud to be a RMT in the BC Bike Race's Wellness Team, supporting hundreds of mountain bikers as they compete in a 7-day race around the province. When she is not working with clients or students you will find her skiing the local hills and Whistler in the winter, or lifeguarding Vancouver beaches in the summer. She is available for treatments at Qi Integrated Health (www.qiintegratedhealth.com // 604.742.8383).
