Which cases do you enjoy treating? why?
I enjoy treating people who face chronic fatigue, burn-out, stress and muscular pains caused by being overworked and or working in a labour intensive/fast paced industry—causing repetitive strain injuries, chronic muscle pains, tension headaches and holding patterns.
As an individual who has worked multiple jobs, while going to school, I have experienced similar pains and am passionate about helping people avoid and manage the stress and pains of being overworked and burnt out—encouraging them to prioritize and incorporate wellness and self-care into their lives.
I also enjoy providing relaxation massage; As positive therapeutic touch and relaxation also play an important role in self care and our overall well being.
What are the top 3 treatments that you specialize in?
If you are looking for back, head, neck, and shoulder massage, Olivia is the therapist for you! As she is passionate in helping relieve the tension in these specific areas to help you feel less restricted, relieve tension headaches, stress, stiffness, and discomfort caused by overworking and our hectic everyday lives.
She achieves this by using myofascial release, trigger point therapy and deep tissue massage.
What are you proud of in your practice?

Whether you are looking for a quite and relaxing massage, you like deep pressure or therapeutic touch or you love to chat while getting treatment I am happy to do whatever you feel will make your massage experience the best for you and provide the massage you want and deserve.
