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

I use Swedish massage techniques including long, flowing strokes, gentle kneading, and soothing movements to release tension throughout your body. The pressure is always adjusted to your comfort level, and we can incorporate more focused therapeutic work while maintaining a relaxing intent.

Each session is personalized; we can target problem areas, include face or scalp massage, or provide full-body treatment. The goal is to calm your nervous system, melt away muscle tension, and leave you feeling completely relaxed and refreshed.

I use unscented fractionated coconut oil and shea butter lotion during massage sessions. Occasionally, I may use scented products, but I'll always ask about any sensitivities beforehand to ensure you're okay with it.

Not at all - the choice is entirely yours. Some clients prefer silence, while others enjoy light conversation. I’ll follow your lead throughout the session. Before we begin, we'll discuss your preferences and any specific goals you have for your massage to ensure you get exactly what you need. My priority is creating a comfortable, judgment-free environment where you can truly unwind.

During your first visit, we'll discuss your treatment goals and health history, followed by an assessment. Conversations during follow-up visits are usually shorter. After your massage, we'll check in to discuss future goals, homecare recommendations, and answer any questions about the treatment.

I understand you may want to go straight to the massage, but these conversations are required by the CCHPBC and insurance companies to ensure quality care and public safety.

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.
