“I provide calm, safe and ethical massage therapy treatment in a patient centered way.”
Marta Williams RMT
BIO
“Since 2003, I have provided registered massage therapy treatment that creates practical solutions for health maintenance and recovery. My practice serves our diverse communities’ needs for physical and emotional wellness, women’s health -including pre and post-partum care- and pre and post-surgical support, as well as muscle and joint aches and pains. I work in a safe and inclusive, trauma informed way that serves individuals and families, including indigenous persons and the LGBTQ2SA+ community and our allies.
I am also a visual artist and former instructor, having developed curriculum and taught at colleges of massage therapy in the areas of hydrotherapy, anatomy, advanced manual techniques and clinical sciences.
I work with a variety of massage techniques that contribute to recovery and wellbeing. These includes Swedish or circulatory massage that supports tissue health and reduces stress and to restore function and movement; then myofascial techniques which help to manage restrictions and scars. Finally, for gentle integration and recovery, I use neuromuscular techniques like muscle energy, craniosacral and lymph drainage.
With over 20 years of experience treating the public as an RMT I can honestly say that I love what I do.’
