Eleven Arrows

Hello, I'm Kris, a Registered Massage Therapist located in the beautiful city of Nanaimo, BC. My practice is focused on injury rehabilitation and providing general musculoskeletal maintenance and preventative care. I am dedicated to ensuring the health and functionality of soft tissues while maintaining the well-being of my clients. Ideally, I aim to collaborate with my clients to establish and achieve their therapeutic goals.

Treatment Goals

At my practice, I understand that each person has unique needs, lifestyles, and fitness levels. Therefore, I customize each treatment plan based on the individual's goals. Here are some of the benefits of massage therapy:

• Improving, maintaining, stretching, strengthening, decreasing pain and stress levels.
• Increasing mobility and range of motion.
• Discussing therapeutic goals and working towards achieving them together.

Massage therapy can help alleviate a variety of conditions such as:

• Muscle hypertonicity and tension.
• Hypo or Hyper Lordosis/Kyphosis.
• Sciatic neuropathy, also known as 'Sciatica'.
• Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS), carpal tunnel syndrome, and other nerve compression issues.
• Whiplash, torticollis, migraines, and tension headaches.
• Sports injuries, tendonitis, tendonosis, arthritis, and inflammatory arthritides.
• Low back pain, disc bulging/herniation, cancer-related issues.
• Muscle spasms, post-surgical scar and circulation work.
• Overall stress relief, fibromyalgia, scoliosis, joint subluxation.
• Chronic injuries, desk-related soreness and tension, motor vehicle accidents (MVA), and lack of energy.

At my practice, I work with clients to reduce pain, symptoms, and scar tissue, improve posture, restore optimal range of motion, and reduce stress. Massage therapy has many benefits that go beyond relaxation. It can help alleviate deeper structures like ligaments, bones/joints, fascia, blood vessels, organs, and other soft tissues. I focus on pain reduction by identifying and working through pain and pain tolerance to achieve balance.
