Hello! I’m Catherine, an experi­enced RMT based in Victoria, BC.

Yes. After booking your first appointment, you'll receive health intake and insurance forms via email. Simply complete and submit them online.

Your credit card information simply holds your appointment for you. Rest assured, no charges will be applied unless there's a late cancellation (less than 48 hours’ notice) or a no-show.

I suggest waiting 14 days after Botox and 28 days after dermal filler before booking a face massage therapy with intra-oral component. Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is safe any time after injectables.

Intra-oral massage involves me wearing vinyl gloves while I manipulate muscles and tissues inside the mouth, the cheeks and jaw area - using kneading and an upward lifting motions. This is a relaxing treatment, though sometimes the technique is quite vigorous. This helps relieve tension from headaches, jaw tightness, teeth grinding, dental work, and more! It's typically not painful - I've even had clients fall asleep. Many clients say they feel more space in their face and cheeks afterward – they feel lighter.

A seroma is a pocket of fluid that can build up under your skin after surgery or an injury. It usually shows up within days or weeks as a soft, painless swelling that you can feel or see beneath the skin. Seromas are common after surgeries that remove significant amounts of tissue or lymph nodes, like breast procedures or lymph node removal.

While lymphatic massage, taping, and compression can help manage seromas, you may need your surgeon to drain it with a needle.
