Integrative massage for body, mind and soul.
Your Body & Breath is your escape from the everyday. Your reset for body, mind and soul. Your haven in Deep Cove for healing.
Integrating Registered Massage Therapy with ancestral practices from Thailand and Indonesia, this is where you release stress, restore mobility, recover from injury, and optimize performance.
Think of it as a day spa, but for deep healing.
You could say my story starts in Thailand
At 21, a Thai massage awakened me to my calling. I moved to Thailand to learn everything I could about massage. It was there I was introduced to yoga and pranayama—the Sanskrit word for breathwork. Together, these three practices became the foundation of my approach to bodywork. And after seven years living in Southeast Asia, I moved home to Vancouver, BC and brought with me these ancestral practices into my training as a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT).
Where my RMT training focused on the anatomy and physiology of the human body (the muscles, fascia and joints), my ancestral practices focused on the flow of energy in the body. Where my RMT training focused on dynamic techniques, my ancestral practices focused on passive techniques. Where Eastern and Western philosophies all too often compete, I found they complement. Feminine and masculine, yin and yang. Together, they healed more deeply.
And, together, they’re the soul of every Your Body & Breath experience.
