About Nadine
As a holistic practitioner Nadine is committed to the philosophy that: “Our bodies are made to heal themselves but often require a dynamic therapist to restore wellness and remind the body of its innate healing capabilities”.
Nadine has honed her extensive knowledge of Massage Therapy and Structural Integration to become a source of healing and vitality for her diverse patients for over 20 years. Using Structural Integration, a type of bodywork which challenges the mind and body connection of patients, she is able to encourage permanent changes in posture and holding patterns.
Nadine has a special interest in shoulder injuries and in pelvic dysfunction, and is also strong supporter of a team approach to patient care. She believes in the importance of educating her patients about their bodies and empowering them to make positive choices. Consistent referrals from current and past clients reflect her treatment success.
Since graduating in 1996 from Calgary’s Foothills College of Massage Therapy, Nadine has continued to expand her knowledge of bodywork. She is passionate about incorporating Anatomy Trains Structural Integration (ATSI) and Myofascial Release techniques with Vacuum Therapies: a unique brand of bodywork using suction to shift, release, life and soften stubborn tissue.
Studying with Thomas Myers, John F. Barnes, Anita Shannon and many others has proved invaluable in enhancing Nadine’s range of therapy specialization for her international practice. Currently, Nadine’s focus lies in the (ATSI) Anatomy Trains Structural Integration series of twelve progressive appointments, the practice of ACE MediCupping and Myofascial Release Therapies.
Nadine enjoys taking her skill and her positive, professional attitude abroad. If she is not working in her busy Calgary based clinic, she can be found studying in the United States, assisting international presenters or co-facilitating global retreats.
Nadine is a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), and is a Certified Structural Integrator CM, a recognized member of IASI (International Association of Structural Integrators.
