Practitioner Biography

Having lived and played in Whistler for the past 10 years, Amandah understands well the benefits of receiving regular massage treatments.  Enjoying the “work hard, play harder” sporting lifestyle can often leave the body with muscular and postural inbalances, chronic holding patterns, and feeling older than its years.

It was in Whistler, while working as a Bodyworker and Esthetician that Amandah first experienced Thai massage and found it to be the most relaxing, yet effective and complete massage style for rebalancing her body that she had yet experienced.  In a quest to learn more, Amandah travelled to Chiang Mai, Thailand in 2005 where she studied under her teacher Chongkol Setthakorn at the  ITM school of Thai Massage, completing 4 levels of training in addition to completing her
Teacher Training in Ancient Thai Massage.

After working again in Whistler, with local spas, mobile companies and on contracts with TLH Heliskiing,  Amandah felt that it was now time to build on her knowledge base and incorporate Deep Tissue techniques into her repertoire of massage modalities to work with.  In the summer of 2009 she graduated from the Spa Therapy program at Vancouver School of Bodywork and Massage, significantly enhancing her knowledge base.   Amandah now resides, works and plays in the Vancouver area, and is committed to always increasing her experience and knowledge,
as life continues to Unfold.

With a holistic approach and a multitude of skills at hand, Amandah’s treatments are particularly effective for the relief of postural and stress-related tensions.  She truly enjoys creating massage experiences that reflect your unique needs on a particular day, with the goal of leaving you feeling relieved, relaxed and rejuvenated.
