MONIKA
Monika earlier studied psychology and neuroscience at Carleton University, which sparked her curiosity and interest in the connection between the brain and body. She shifted her focus towards massage therapy so she could better understand the body as a whole and make meaningful, direct impacts on her clients.
Inspiring her practice, Monika’s personal experience with chronic and recovered injuries helped familiarize her with the process of healing, change, and recovery through holistic lifestyle changes.
In her spare time, Monika appreciates great conversations over food and refreshments with family, friends and anyone new to the table. She enjoys accompanying her dog on familiar and new trails along with being active in its many forms. Monika is not afraid to get dirt on her hands. She loves spending time in the garage with her father and partner tinkering with their toys and working on automotive projects. She values time to decompress and recharge just as much as she values the opportunity for new experiences. During the warmer seasons, Monika and her partner enjoy spending their afternoons going for joy rides on the motorcycle and stopping for ice cream in different towns. She also looks forward to her annual fishing trips and weekends away with her family.
