As I wrap up my .fascial.integration series next weekend, I've been reflecting on how much has changed.

When I started this program, I was looking for something to spark a little passion back into my practice. I was dual registered, as busy as I wanted to be, but I'd lost some of my excitement for the work.

The deep dives into fascial anatomy brought me back. 🤓

Not because they gave me the "best" techniques, but because they helped me better understand the body and clarified how I work best as a practitioner.

Over the last few years, alongside this program, I've completed certifications in orthopedic acupuncture, electroacupuncture, and dry needling, assisted with seminars, and this November I'll be co-teaching my first course with .

Looking back, I can see that this program didn't just teach me anatomy. It helped me reconnect with my curiosity. It gave me direction. It helped me integrate years of learning into a practice that feels aligned, clear, and genuinely exciting to show up for every day.

None of which would have happened if I didn't follow the pull to keep learning.

Two people can have the same pain —
and need completely different treatment approaches.

That’s why assessment matters. 👇

At Mend Health Co., we don’t jump straight into treatment.

First, we listen. 🗣️
We want to understand your symptoms, your history, your lifestyle, your stress, your recovery, and the bigger picture behind why your body may be struggling in the first place.

Then, we move. 🚶‍♀️
We assess how your body functions through movement, strength, mobility, posture, and compensation patterns.

Finally, we treat. ✨

Not just the condition you came in with —
but you, as a unique whole person.

Nothing cookie-cutter here, folks. 🤍

📍Mend Health Co. — Whistler, BC
Whole-body care for pain, recovery & human performance.

Our hands are the most valuable tools we have. 🤲

They give us information you can’t always see.
They help us feel how your body is moving, where it’s holding tension, and what’s not working the way it should.

They guide treatment in real time—adapting to what your body needs, not just following a set plan.

In a world of quick fixes and passive care, hands-on work still matters.
It’s how we assess.
It’s how we treat.
It’s how we create meaningful change.

At Mend, this is a core part of how we approach care—combining our deep knowledge of anatomy with hands-on treatment and a plan that actually supports you outside the clinic.

Move better. Feel better. Live better.

🌟 Welcoming Krysten! 🌟

As we settle into our new clinic at 1200 Alpha Lake Road, that has room to grow — we’re starting by welcoming Krysten De Florenca, RMT to the Mend team. 🤍

Krysten brings a grounded and thoughtful approach to massage therapy, rooted in supporting the body’s natural balance while helping you move and feel your best.

With training from the Vancouver College of Massage Therapy — and her own journey through injury and recovery — Krysten’s treatments blend movement + manual therapy to engage the body’s interconnected structures: fascia, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

The result? Restored mobility, reduced tension, and a calmer nervous system that supports long-term resilience.

Whether you’re:
• returning from an injury
• managing chronic or persistent pain
• easing day-to-day tightness
• reducing stress
• or staying strong for a life lived outside

Krysten is here to support your goals and help you feel more connected to your body.

We’re so excited to have her as part of this next chapter at Mend — new space, new possibilities, and more hands-on support than ever.

Krysten starts Jan 2nd!! | Online booking now open 👉 https://mendhealth.janeapp.com

Raising the Bar. 🤓
Just wrapped up an incredible weekend with and Dr. Jamie Hampton () completing the Pelvic Floor Acupuncture & Dry Needling Certification.
This course filled a huge gap that most practitioners have — because if you treat the human body, every muscle and every layer of anatomy matters. The pelvic floor isn’t separate from the rest of the system; it’s the foundation of it.
Over 50 hours of advanced learning covered everything from pelvic floor anatomy and myofascial relationships to electroacupuncture applications, safety protocols, and treatment strategies for conditions like pelvic pain, low back tension, hip dysfunction, incontinence, postpartum recovery, and scar tissue release.
I’m so grateful to Dr. Hampton and the ASE team for their depth, clarity, and commitment to raising the standard of care in our profession. Excited to integrate this knowledge into my work at Mend Health Co., continuing to bridge movement, performance, and whole-body health — from the inside out.

And just like that winter is back on! ❄

We're a bit more excited than Moose is about the new snowfall and we hope you are too.

Just remember to warm up those muscles before heading up the mountain and snow shoveling this week 💪😉

Guess what! We still have some acupuncture and RMT appointments available Wednesday morning and Friday afternoon this week!
