Becky Taylor, B.h.sc., B.A., R.M.T., Owner

Deep Tissue Massage, Trigger Point Therapy, Myofascial Release, Headache, Pregnancy and Stress Reduction

Becky has been practicing as a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) since May 2006, after successfully completing the 3000-hour program at the West Coast College of Massage Therapy locally in Victoria. Her first job as a massage therapist was at a remote fishing lodge in the Queen Charlotte Islands during the summers of 2006 and 2007. The experience gave her the opportunity to work with many different people and conditions in a condensed period of time. Being at the lodge helped her develop the skills needed to use therapeutic techniques while keeping the treatment relaxing and enjoyable. Becky then started working permanently in Victoria in October 2007 and decided to open her own clinic in January 2009. In August, 2009 Becky also completed her Bachelor of Health Sciences with a focus in Massage Therapy.
