I can blend the diverse trainings I do have into a seamless flowing art of massage.

I didn’t choose the RMT path because the work I offer goes deeper than muscle fibers and clinical protocols. It listens to the stories the body can’t put into words. It allows for a sacred conversation between touch, memory, energy, and emotion.

And that kind of work—while profoundly effective—isn’t permitted within the legal scope of RMT practice in British Columbia.

So here’s why I’m not an RMT. And why that’s exactly the point.

The Healing I Offer Isn’t Meant to Be Reduced to a Clinical Framework

Mentorship is not about fitting a client into a mold of your lenses, what you think is right or changing what you think is wrong. Mentorship is about walking beside someone on their own journey of discovery, or being present with what is, what can be, what potential lies within the unseen of the person wanting to build awareness. Allowing them the safety of that presence to find their way.

Sometimes things happen that inspire you to step more fully into yourself. unbeknownst to you, timing, place or person, you are ignited by a catalyst that stirs the embers inside you never knew were simmering, waiting, to light, to light up for you, for others, to warm the energy that was always there, meant to bring life to an idea, a concept or something more.

Exploring the Science and Essence of AVE Therapy

If you’ve ever wondered what happens during one of my immersive light and sound sessions—this post is for you.

At Biokinetic, these sessions aren’t just “cool visuals” or relaxing background noise. They’re carefully designed experiences that work with the nervous system, brainwaves, and the subtle body to help you reset at a deep level. This isn’t a quick escape from your life—it’s a return to your center.

We’re taught to push through.
To stay upright, hold it together, and carry on — no matter what the body says.

I know I personally have had to learn to get myself out of this mode of constant doing, of achieving to make myself have moments of relaxation from a sense of having “earned it”

But what if the answer isn’t in doing more?
What if the real shift begins the moment you stop bracing?

This is the moment the body softens. The thoughts soften. Time stills. You are present. You are enough.
This is where healing lives.

We live in a world that moves fast. Minds are overstimulated. Nervous systems are stuck in high alert. And most people don’t realize just how much they’re bracing — until they aren’t.

At Biokinetic, the work I offer is more than just massage. It’s an invitation into presence. Into somatic healing. Into subtle body intelligence. And most importantly, into the kind of safety that allows the body to finally let go.

When brainwaves slow to alpha or theta states, the brain and heart synchronize—a state known as coherence. This signals the nervous system to relax, reducing stress and supporting deep healing.

Audio-Visual Entrainment (AVE) enhances this process by using light and sound pulses to guide brainwaves into calming, focused, or restorative patterns, promoting mental clarity and overall well-being.
