Holly

Registered Massage Therapist

How did you start off?: I grew up in British Columbia. What brought me to Banff was the mountains. I went to school and  graduated from Makami College in Calgary.

For Fun: I like to go hiking or snowshoeing. I also love snowboarding, cooking and travelling.

“I chose massage therapy for my career because I have always loved helping others, whether it’s relaxing the client or giving them deep tissue to help release tightness and tension that they have.”

Where did you get your start?:I studied with the Canadian College of Massage and Hydrotherapy (at the time in Kitchener Waterloo) which was a 2200 hour program and I graduated in 2002.

How did you come to Banff: I am from Galt, Ontario and work and the mountains brought me to Banff. I’ve been working at Meadow Spa since 2016.

Initially I did (massage therapy) to go into another profession but I liked it so much (helping people in that capacity) that I never considered doing anything else after my training. When I’m not working I like to cross country ski, go fly fishing, do meal prep, listen to podcasts and catch up with friends and family.
