Rita graduated from the Vancouver College of Massage Therapy in April and will be completing her RMT registration exams in the fall of 2023. Having a background in competitive dance growing up, Rita has always had an interest in injury rehabilitation and how the body supports us in doing the things we love. In combination with her BA in Psychology, she understands the importance of mind-body balance and that causes of pain can often be multifaceted. Rita is dedicated to helping others improve their quality of life and provides patient-centred care by tailoring each treatment to her patient’s goals and using a variety of techniques such as Swedish, deep tissue, trigger point, and myofascial release. She has had experience working with sports-related injuries, headaches, general aches and pains, as well as a variety of orthopaedic and systemic conditions. In her spare time she enjoys taking her dog out for walks, working out, and spending time with family and friends.
