Massage Therapy
If you are struggling with anxiety, stress or certain health conditions massage therapy is one of the oldest techniques to treat pain and I can help you.
I can relieve your pain and bring joy back into your life.
Manual Therapy
The reason you would seek out massage therapy is because you are in pain.
In my 30-year career as a Registered Massage Therapist, I have helped a lot of people get their life back, and I want that for you.
If you're suffering from debilitating physical pain, anxiety, or stress, then I can help you with massage therapy.
I want you to feel well cared for and listened to.
I can promise you by your third massage that, you will feel less pain. I will do my best to help you, but if you're still in pain, then we can find other modalities that may help.
If you have never had a massage appointment I want to be the first therapist to give you an amazing experience.
My goal is for you to love it so much, you include massage therapy as part of your health and wellness plan.
You can expect me to assess your situation, discuss your treatment plan, and go over the techniques used during your treatment to manipulate muscles, tendons, and joints.
The pressure could range from light-moderate to deep tissue. And it’s very important to communicate how you are feeling during a treatment and to let me know if you’re uncomfortable at any time.
Conditions Massage Therapy is Helpful For
Do you suffer from anxiety or depression?
Massage Therapy can work on calming your nervous system.
Do you have back pain caused by tight muscles?
Massage therapy can relax the muscles and surrounding tissue by bringing blood flow which brings oxygen to the area.
Can you lift your shoulder without pain?
Maybe you have an old injury that stops the shoulder joint from moving or the movement is really painful.
Massage therapy can help you get movement back in your joints by using joint mobilizations and deep tissue massage to break down scar tissue.
Massage Therapy Helps with Physical Health
Your muscles are sore and painful because you are sitting at your desk all day at work.
You work long hours, so having a massage will ease your pain so you can keep working.
If you have a physically demanding job and your muscles get stiff and sore, massage therapy helps you recover quickly so you can continue to work pain-free.
If you suffer from insomnia, massage therapy will help with your sleep because you deserve good quality sleep.
Working out can create delayed muscle soreness (DOMS). It would benefit you to recover quickly from workouts, and massage therapy has been proven to decrease muscle soreness. You will feel rejuvenated instead of stiff and sore.
When you increase your flexibility by having regular massages, you will be able to ride your bike for long distances because your back will not stiffen up on you.
Massage Therapy Helps with Mental Health
Reduce the stress and anxiety that you may be feeling.
There are a lot of triggers in life that can affect you mentally. Massage therapy decreases your stress hormones and helps regulate your nervous system.
You can leave all your troubles behind and look forward to a more positive carefree life.
You deserve to be happy and healthy.
Massage therapy increases all the happy hormones called endorphins.
Life is good when you have happy hormones circulating throughout your body. You will have a big smile when you leave your massage therapy appointment.
Energy is the elixir of life, and you need it to get through your day.
Massage techniques can be used to increase your energy that will propel you in your life.
Having massage therapy as part of your wellness plan will maintain your wellness.
Your mind and body will feel refreshed, and you deserve to feel amazing as you go through life.

Client Love
“Working in the medical field, I frequently had to lift and transfer patients to and from beds and stretchers. This took quite a toll on my upper back, neck, and shoulder area.
Initially, I managed the resultant stress and pain with the maximum amount of ibuprofen daily. After many years I developed an intolerance to the drugs and then was diagnosed with spinal stenosis of my cervical spine.
Luckily, after trying many different RMT’s I found Leanne, aka Dr. FeelGoodXO, who specializes in deep-tissue massage therapy.
Initially, the sessions were quite challenging, but by persevering, we reached the point where bi-weekly appointments were enough for me to maintain a much better quality of life than before and without medication! This is very important for kidney health.
I am so grateful for meeting Leanne, or should I say Dr. FeelGreatXO? Because that’s how I feel the next day after my treatment.
She is not Good…she is GREAT!”
