Lysanne Lavigne

Lysanne graduated from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in 2007, and is registered with the College of Massage Therapists of British Columbia. She relocated to Victoria in 2002 while pursuing a National Rowing team career, which brought her three international podium finishes. She has since continued to lead an active lifestyle and participates in many different sports. She preaches the power of a stable body state: 'Good nutrition and sleep with enough water supports your body in its stable state helping your recovery.'

Lysanne does not offer full body massage and rarely uses oil. She will listen to your body to figure out the source of the issue and then address it. Her extensive visceral manipulation training is the foundation of the treatments through very good knowledge of the anatomy and functions of the human body. Interspersed with fascial work, kinetic tests, taping, strengthening and all held together through the principles of biodynamic tensegrity and more to come.

Learning never ends, every year her knowledge increases and you can expect a different treatment as she figures out more effective ways to get to the source of issues. A thorough assessment and very specific techniques will follow.
