PHILOSOPHY
The human body is a fascinating, complex and mysterious organism. It is important for health care practitioners to acknowledge this and treat their patients as a whole, rather than focusing on a “part to fix”. Valeria uses Massage Therapy and her knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics to help her patients achieve their best mental and physical health.
EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND
Valeria graduated in April 2020 from the acclaimed Vancouver College of Massage Therapy in downtown Vancouver and is now a fully certified Registered Massage therapist.
During her time at VCMT, Valeria worked with a variety of individuals including seniors, athletes, pregnant women, and patients dealing with acute and/or chronic injuries, anxiety, and depression. This allowed her to gain a better knowledge of the human body and the relationship between mental and physical health.
AREAS OF TREATMENT
Valeria uses her knowledge to best fit the needs of her patient. Her favourite modalities are Swedish massage, myofascial release, trigger point release, and PNF stretching.
PERSONAL HISTORY
Valeria is originally from Italy and has been living in Vancouver for the past 5 years.
