My vision is to share the benefits of reflexology with as many people as possible, with the intention of offering detailed and concise information for you to embody your best self - anytime and anywhere.

I have always loved bodywork! Even before I knew what it was, or had a name for it, or knew it was a profession (true that – my grade 9 yearbook has my aspirations as “wants to be a paid masseuse“).

I was introduced to reflexology in 1989 at Kibbutz Na’an by the resident reflexologist Adina Enoch. After a stop in Amsterdam to find books and take the first of many courses, I practiced my way through Europe, the South Pacific, Central and South America, Bali, the Caribbean, Galapagos Islands, the USA, and Canada.

Shortly after landing in Whistler, B.C. in 1991, I commuted to Vancouver to obtain my certification in reflexology at the Wild Rose College immediately preceding an eighteen month journey through Central and South America. I started a private practice while traveling abroad (I was literally known as the girl who could touch your feet and help you to have success in the bathroom!) and began teaching in 2001, at first to other therapists at the Vida Spa at the Chateau Whistler, before becoming the premiere reflexology instructor for the Vancouver School of Bodywork & Massage from 2004-2017.

Since discovering reflexology, I have also studied many forms of yoga (which I also taught), Ayurvedic Massage, Therapeutic Touch, Hot Stone Massage, Vipassana and TM meditation. I am also a volunteer counselor for OPT (Options for Sexual Health) and have studied (and valiantly spoken), French, Hebrew and Spanish.
Aside from my private practice on Salt Spring Island, BC, I have also shared my work with clients at the Salt Spring Centre of Yoga, initially as a therapist at Chikitsa Shala Wellness Centre, offering reflexology, swedana, pada abhyanga, & nutritive facials, which later segued into presenting the Saturday Evening Program for the famed “Yoga Getaway” weekends, as well as offering reflexology treatments in combination with dental work with Dr. Richard Hayden at the Island Dental Centre from 2005-2016. Most recently I built the reflexology course for the upcoming Spa Therapy offering for Vancouver Career College.
