Massage in Montreal, Canada


Hi everybody, I’m Amber, a certified Massotherapeute here in Montreal.

I grew up in Nova Scotia, living there until 2001 when I left my ocean home to come study Massage Therapy and practice Aikido – a martial art which demands an awareness of joint limitations, pain thresholds, and acheives gracefulness through efficiency of movement.  A truly beautiful artform which constantly deepens my understanding of the body.

My massage studies include Swedish/Sports massage, Thai Yoga Massage (assisted stretching), Myofascial Release and Craniosacral Therapy – the perfect mixture of techniques for Deep Tissue and therapeutic work!  I massage with or without oil, using a massage table or chair, or simply a floor futon.  I’ve worked in conjunction with acupuncturists and osteopaths, at Sporting events, Martial arts seminars, Massage and Rehabilitation centers, spas, offices, concerts, you name it!

Martial and Healing Arts are strikingly different yet complementary ways of discovering the body, and have resulted in my unconventional massage style –confident, dynamic, and precise.  I’m happy to be part of Dr. Dot’s Massage team, working with the most competant therapists, and some of the most talented musicians in the world!  Give me a shout if you’re in Montreal: Email me at info@drdot.com and put "AMBER/MONTREAL" in subject line and I will get back to you right away.

Massage in Raleigh, North Carolina

 

Meet Rae, the newest member to the Dr. Dot massage team down South:

 

"Having a chance to blend 2 of my biggest passions is a dream come true, and I am ecstatic to be on Dr. Dot’s team!!  
 
I was raised by hippie parents on all the right music—Beatles, Zeppelin, Moody Blues, etc.  Today you can find everything from Aimee Mann to James Brown to U2 in my collection.  I am a music fiend!  Much of my youth was spent watching MTV (when they still played music), and I mastered every Janet Jackson routine and Motley Crue drumbeat there was.  I decided early on that I was going to either be a rock star, or marry one.  

The night I met my husband, he was playing guitar onstage.  Trying to impress him, I offered to massage his hands, even though I had no training.  I guess I did well, since we’re still together!  Soon after we met, I chose to leave social work behind for massage school.  My first day, a fellow student let me practice on her.  She told me it felt like I’d already been doing massage for years, and I knew then I had found my calling.  I spent the next 18 months learning massage, yoga, reiki, and anything else I could get my hands on.  

Looking back, it now seems obvious I was meant to do healing work.  Growing up in an affectionate family taught me power of touch, and it seems from an early age I had a natural gift of intuition.  Using massage and energy work enabled me to heal my body and mind when I developed problems that doctors and medications couldn’t fix.  Now I live a full life without any meds, not even a multivitamin!  It is so important to me to continue sharing this gift with others, to help them take charge of their health.  

My approach is intuitively and holistically based, treating your whole being.  I consider myself a channel, working where my hands are guided.  Each session is tailored to your specific needs, and I can provide anything from a soothing Swedish to an intense Trigger Point session.  If you need healing and I’m not available in person, I can send you Reiki as well.  

Chances are, I’ll be at your show anyway, so it would be an honor to have you book me: info@drdot.com  (put "for CHANDRA/NC" in subject line).

 

Thanks, Rae"
