Registered Massage Therapy

Registered Massage Therapy

I offer mobile palliative massage services & foot reflexology, designed specifically for our elders and people receiving palliative care. These gentle therapies help reduce pain, stress, anxiety, and depression, resulting in better sleep and a greater sense of well-being. My approach integrates physical care with mindful attention, ensuring that both body and mind are attended to with gentleness and respect. Whether at home, in a care facility, hospice, or a hospital, I bring compassionate care directly to you.

End-of-Life Doula Services

As an end-of-life doula, I provide support that covers the important emotional and practical aspects of the dying process. My services include grief support for individuals and families, assistance for caregivers, and guidance through the fear of death. Together, we can work on mending relationships and planning consciously for the end of life, ensuring that you and your loved ones approach this phase with peace and dignity.
