Keana has long been involved in athletics, in doing so, she was continually surrounded by various athletic therapists, including massage therapists. She very quickly realized the immense benefit of these services. Keana says, “It’s so intriguing how something that can seem so simple, is actually very complex and can influence many different body systems, not just the muscular system. “… “I chose to become a massage therapist because I want to help people, whether its relaxation, stress reduction or therapeutic massage, there is a massage style for everyone out there.”

Keana appreciates the uniqueness and versatility of massage therapy, “Everyone is different, and that’s one of my favorite parts of this professions. Every time you walk into the treatment room with your client, its always different from the last.”

Keana has experience treating teens, adults and geriatric demographics and is looking forward to learning more.

Keana is well on her way to completing her massage therapy training at the Alberta College of Massage Therapy. She is now at the stage in her education where she must complete her second-year 150 practical hours. This requires her to work under the supervision of a Registered Massage Therapist.
