If you have furniture that needs a facelift, or if you thrift and find a gem that needs a little bit of TLC, Tatiana will help you out! The showroom is located in Cranberry, but she works her magic on custom pieces in her workshop. We love her stuff and are looking forward to having a piece in our clinic.

Welcome! Jamie is a born and raised West Coast girl. Originally from Vancouver Island, Jamie moved to Vancouver to attend West Coast College of Massage Therapy, graduating in 2007. She fell in love with Vancouver and decided to stay to start her career. After 9 years of private practice in East Vancouver, accompanied with 5 years of teaching neurology at Vancouver College of Massage Therapy, her husband was offered a work opportunity in Powell River in 2016 and she has never ...felt more at home. Jamie's treatments have been described as effective, informative, and relaxing. She believes that the nervous system plays a major role in how our body processes, feels and holds onto pain. While releasing and finding those "Painful spots" can create temporary reliefs we want to answer the question of, "Why those spots are there to begin with?" That is how we can truly help someone change the pattern of there pain. Jamie's main focus in her practice has been postural re-alignment and restoring range of motion due to joint or muscular dysfunction. Myo-facial release, trigger point therapy, passive/active stretching as well as Swedish and deep tissue are all techniques you can expect to see when you come in for a treatment. She also believes in the power of simple relaxation: sometimes just allowing your body to unwind can help with a lot of our day to day stresses aches and pains. Never be afraid to come in just for a relaxation treatment. She has had success, as well enjoys, working with various issues like chronic low back, neck and shoulder pain, headaches, Plantar fasciitis, and Sciatica. She has also had the opportunity to work with many complex cases including Mulitple Sclerosis, ALS and Traumatic Brain Injuries. When not at work you will find Jamie hiking many of the local trails with her dog Jack, swimming in many of the beautiful lakes, or relaxing at home with friends and family. Jamie's continuous passion for holistic health care, coupled with her kind compassionate and caring attitude, creates a wonderful healing environment for those seeking care.

Hi There! Brigitte hails from the East Coast, and has recently moved to beautiful Powell River, BC. Her friendly and positive attitude is as infectious as her laugh. In her spare time, she geeks out on yoga, bikes around town, tends to her garden and plays with her dog, Cedar. She started her educational path in 2006, when she studied Shiatsu, Thai Massage, Aromatherapy, Ayurveda, Reflexology and Hot Stone Massage at West Coast College of Massage Therapy. This led her to Vanc...ouver College of Massage Therapy where she continued her studies and graduated as a Registered Massage Therapist in 2010. Since this time, she has taken particular interest in postural re-alignment facilitated by Myofascial Manipulation. This technique connects the whole body and brings awareness to patterns of tension. This is a slow, yet deep technique that discovers the source of dysfunction and encourages symptoms to take a hike! Other techniques she uses are Trigger Point Release, Deep Tissue Massage, Swedish massage, Cranio-Sacral Therapy and active/passive stretching. Her approach, and patient care encourages the body to relax and release. Brigitte’s aim is to realign and balance the body. This results in helping with Headaches, Jaw pain, Neck and Shoulder Tension, Lower Back and S.I. Joint dysfunction. She traveled to Guatemala to receive her Yoga Teacher certification in 2014. This knowledge trickles down into her treatment and patient care. She is fascinated by the mind/body connection and how it pertains to wellbeing. She looks forward to being an active part of the wellness community in Powell River, and is accepting new patients.

Finally, after working in several clinics together, and dreaming of this idea for many years, Jamie and Brigitte have a clinic space to call their own. This 3 room clinic, located within the Harvie Medical Building is a perfect fit for them. They are excited to add more health care practitioners to the team and to be an active part of the wellness community in Powell River, BC. Book online- www.rmtpowellriver.com
