Kim is new to the Comox Valley and very excited to share her skills as a therapist. She is originally born and raised a Vancouverite before moving to Nelson, B.C. where she graduated from Kootenay Columbia College as a Registered Massage Therapist.
Kim is passionate about helping her patients achieve optimal physical health and wellness. With her caring nature, she was drawn to the profession of massage therapy with a focus on helping alleviate pain, sometimes associated with chronic conditions. By both listening to her patients and "listening" to her hands, she creates a treatment that is specific to her patient's needs. In her treatments, she uses a combination of deep tissue, slower myofascial work, trigger point release and active and passive stretches in order to reduce pain, restore or increase function. In her past career, which required her to sit at a desk for long hours, she found that she gravitated towards these techniques which were instrumental in alleviating her discomfort and enhancing her overall well-being whenever she saw her own RMT. While Kim is trained to treat a multitude of musculoskeletal and systemic conditions, she is particularly interested in treating seniors, those dealing with chronic pain, and treating overall stress and anxiety.
Outside of massage therapy, Kim enjoys quality time with people she loves, being active in the gym or exploring the outdoors.
