Ann Oaks Registered Massage Therapist, she/her
Compassionately Helping Clients
Helping people by working in the field of wellness has always been my goal. After 10 years in Sales/Marketing I made a career change! In my studies I achieved honours at both Canadian College of Massage & Hydrotherapy and Bryan College of Applied Health & Business Sciences, graduating in 2020.
In 2021 began to work as a RMT and am very thankful for this rewarding profession!
