Massage Therapy is the manipulation of soft tissues which include, muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints. The aim of massage therapy is to develop, maintain, rehabilitate, or enhance physical function of the soft tissues in order to decrease pain and adhesions, improving the well being of the client.
The goal of your first few massages will be to begin pain relief, reduce tension and sedate stressed nerves. Your first visit will not solve your problems, but will start the process, as well as provide you with an overall sense of well being. Following your first visits, and once your condition is relieved, your massage will focus on the underlying cause of your symptoms, and the strengthening of the tissues surrounding the problem area in order to prevent the return of your previous condition.

Kauri has been practicing massage therapy since August 2000 when she founded Brooklin Village Massage Therapy. Her philosophy has always been, to have clients feeling much better leaving her doorway than they did when they came through it. Happy clients are her motivator. She uses a consultative process throughout the treatment as only the client knows what they feel as far as pressure and discomfort. She will work together with the client to alleviate discomfort which should help them to feel their best.

My passion for sport led me to achieve a Specialized Honours BA in Kinesiology and Health Science from York University in 1998. The knowledge gained in anatomy and physiology only furthered my interest in health and the powerful ability of the human body to heal itself naturally. In 2000, I graduated from the Canadian College of Massage and Hydrotherapy on the Dean's list. I believe in tailoring a massage towards the individual needs of each client by using the fundamental modalities within Swedish massage to attain the best result possible. My intent is to create a positive impact on the client’s health and well-being by minimizing muscle tension, relieving stress, managing chronic pain and speeding recovery of soft tissue injury. I have taken a variety of continuing education courses and have a particular interest in treating neck and headache tension, postural/repetitive strains and pregnancy massage.
I have been with Brooklin Village Massage Therapy Clinic since 2009 and enjoy working with the talented staff and friendly clientele in this small community.

In a previous career I spent my days sitting at a desk doing computer aided drafting (AutoCAD) after completing an Architectural Technology Diploma program and an AutoCAD certificate at St. Clair College of Applied Arts & Technology in Windsor. After having my first professional massage as a college student I developed an interest in the profession. I loved the soothing atmosphere and the life supporting nature of the environment.
Eventually I decided to become a RMT and attended Sutherland-Chan School & Teaching Clinic in Toronto. Upon graduating in 2003 I began working at The Adelaide Club Spa and spent much time treating various musculoskeletal and postural conditions in clients that sit at a desk all day. My previous computer experience gave me firsthand knowledge of the physical challenges associated with a sedentary job. In 2008 I completed the Dr. Vodder certification for Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) and Combined Decongestive Treatment (CDT) and continue to re-certify every 2 years to keep current by learning about the newest developments/research in the field.
MLD is a gentle, non-invasive manual skin technique that assists lymph flow and aids in the drainage of body tissues. It is helpful in treating conditions such as primary and secondary lymphedema (resulting from past injuries or cancer treatments), non-infected inflammatory conditions (sprains & strains), sport injuries, burns, dermatological conditions, circulatory disturbances, and pre/post plastic surgery. I am a member, in good standing, of the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario, the Registered Massage Therapists Association of Ontario, and the Lymphedema Association of Ontario.
As a Massage Therapist, registered in good standing with the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario and a member of the Registered Massage Therapists Association of Ontario. I believe that the body and mind are capable of doing wonderful things, and massage is a useful tool that will benefit both.
Comfort is extremely important to me and I strive to provide an uncomplicated environment that is relaxing and therapeutic. Knowing how our bodies work, or doesn’t, is part of my philosophy of healing.
My treatments are focused to each client's individual needs and treatment goals, whether you are looking to reduce stress and tension, relieve pain, increase range of motion or maintain tissue and joint health.
I look forward to being a part of your wellness journey.

I graduated from the 3 yr Durham College Massage Program with Honours. I am passionate about the health care industry and enthusiastic to help on their path of well-being. Fitness and meditation have played an important part of helping me towards my personal well being journey. My treatment goals along with your specific goals are to use massage to help you improve in these areas. 1) fitness will help find ways to decrease pain and increase range of motion so people can get back to their daily physical activities, sport(s) or hobbies. 2) meditation while in treatment will help provide a nuturing environment where people can be present and mindful of the sensations of the massage so they achieve deeper states of relaxation and concentration. That being said, I am ready to work towards whatever goal you are aiming for. Lets work together harmoniously to achieve a nuturing and healing massage. I perform swedish, deep tissue and Thai massage.
Thai massage or Thai yoga is a deeply relaxing, tension-relieving practice of mindful movement that helps increase an individual's range of motion and encourages flexibility through its unique blend of assisted stretching, yoga, breathwork, and massage. Thai massage is always performed clothed, on a mat, or on the floor. Recipients are guided through a series of yoga-like stretches, as well as a combination of abdominal work, breath cues, deep tissue massage, and application of pressure to specific points on the body.
