Marilee graduated from the Vancouver College of Massage Therapy in August 2019 and brings extensive health care experience to her practice. Formerly a care aide assisting residents in long term care facilities with their activities of daily living, Marilee believes in an approach that stems from dignity, collaboration, empathy, and intuition; these skills have been instrumental in Marilee’s massage therapy practice. She has also had the immense honour of serving the community as a birth doula, ushering new life into the world for over a decade.
Marilee uses a variety of massage techniques in each treatment from myofascial release, neuromuscular techniques, joint mobilizations and both active and passive stretching along with Swedish relaxation to facilitate increased mobility and function while working alongside her clients to turn the volume down that stress can create in the mind and body.
When Marilee is not in the clinic she can be found soaking up the natural beauty of the world around her or playing recreational team sports, namely soccer and volleyball, or enjoying the plethora of vegan restaurants in our beautiful city.
Marilee is available on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Click here to book with Marilee.
