Massage TherapyMassage therapists utilize numerous soft tissue techniques and the use of certain modalities. In addition massage therapist's are qualified to provide assessment in musculoskeletal (muscle, bones) dysfunctions and instruct on exercise, stretching and postural conditions. The Massage Therapy Association of Manitoba defines the scope of the practice as follows:
The practice of massage therapy is the assessment of the soft tissue and joints of the body and the treatment and prevention of physical dysfunction and pain of the soft tissues and joints by manipulation to develop, maintain, rehabilitate or augment physical function, or relieve pain. |

Kristyn Boulet is a student massage therapist, who will be graduating from the Wellington College of Remedial Massage Therapies in June 2018. Kristyn provides clients with an exceptional experience in the direction towards natural healing of the body. She has a strong passion for assessing musculoskeletal dysfunctions and providing individualized treatment plans with measurable results for clients. She believes in the importance of educating clients on their bodies, and giving them treatment plans to do at home, so they can become active participants in their recovery/rehabilitation. With an athletic background, Kristyn has an enhanced understanding of the unique needs of athletes. She has taken additional workshops in sports massage therapy, pre/post sports massage, Indian head massage, breast massage, rib-mobilization, and an introduction to craniosacral therapy. She is eager to learn more through continued education workshops, for more variety in approaching clients conditions. She is excited to work in the field of therapeutic massage therapy and looks forward to meeting the clients at Healthview! Since Kristyn is still a student, her massages cannot be billed to insurance companies so we are offering her services at a reduced rate. This is a great option for anyone who does not have insurance, or has already used up their massage therapy benefit for the year! Kristyn will be working Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays starting on April 23.
