​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​My Healing Journey:

​

How I Found the Path to Massage Therapy

​

Many people asked me, “How did you get here?” or “What was your healing path?”

Here are the defining moments that shaped my transition from pharmaceutical sales to holistic massage therapy—a journey rooted in an open mind and curiosity and awe.

​​

​

1. Discovering the Body’s Power to Heal

​

Years ago, before beginning my massage career, I helped a dear friend with back pain.

As I massaged his back in his living room, I was startled by an intense heat radiating from my body. At the time, I didn’t understand it, but later I realized it was not menopause but signs of healing and he received a body’s profound relief—a powerful moment that marked the beginning of my journey.

2. The Epiphany of Chi During Chinese Head Massage

​

During my Chinese Head Massage training, I witnessed the transformative power of Chi.

As I practiced, I noticed a face becoming more rejuvenated, glowing, and a sharp nose. This rare epiphany opened my eyes to the natural powers of Chi and inspired me to pursue its healing potential as a life pursuit.

​

​

3. Leaving the Pharmaceutical World for Holistic Healing

​

My pharmaceutical career in anesthesia was rewarding and the doctors were nice but left me with one unforgettable experience.

​

Watching an open-heart surgery at Montreal’s Royal Victoria Hospital was traumatizing yet eye-opening. It reinforced my desire to find solutions and focus on natural, restorative healing methods that empower the body’s intrinsic ability to heal.

4. Finding Refuge in the Body’s Wisdom

​

Through my healing journey with narcissistic parents, I discovered the body as a sanctuary.

This meaningful process taught me to listen to its gentle cues and trust its wisdom. My passion for Chi—the divine life force—grew as I witnessed its capacity to bring hope, shift energy, and create profound self-healing.

​

Healing is a dance between practitioner, client, and Chi. It’s a privilege to share this transformative process with those seeking stillness and peace amidst life’s challenges.

​

​

5. The Humbling Collaboration Between Body and Mind

​

Working with the body is a deeply humbling experience.

The mind often resists letting go, but the body whispers its truth, guiding the journey to self-regulation, coherence, and hope. It’s remarkable how the body supports us, often more willingly than the mind, fostering profound physical and mental transformations.

​

​

6. Embracing the Body’s Truth

​

Healing requires trust in the unknown.

The body has a language of its own—a subtle but powerful truth that cannot be fully understood through the lens of the past. Can you let your body lead you toward its innate wisdom and healing potential? This journey was transformative & to be able to trust what you see, feel and use left-right brain was a greater learning experience about critical thinking than any university can instill in you.
