Hey there!

My name is Shirene Ree-Hembling. I was born and raised in Prince Rupert, B.C. I recently graduated from a 2500 hour Massage Therapy Diploma at Okanagan Valley College of Massage Therapy in Vernon, BC. I am excited to be home and provide therapeutic massage to assist with your physical and mental health goals.

Massage therapy means so much more to me than just massaging. I want to help empower people through consent, safe touch, movement, education, and proactive healthcare. Using massage I can also help others find and/or sustain their independence, recovery, longevity and self-compassion. I am very knowledgeable in human anatomy and physiology, and I am passionate about supporting others with their healing journey.

Key goals in massages I offer include an overall increase in systemic health, relaxation and pain suppression/management. I use a variety of techniques including myofascial release, Swedish based techniques, hydrotherapy, deep tissue, joint mobilizations, and treatment based massage.

Prior to my decision to pursue a career in healthcare, I worked in fisheries for 5 years, I then longshored for another 5 years and decided to go back to school. Throughout both careers I noticed the amount of pain, and discomfort people are in daily which ultimately affects their quality of life… Naturally, I wanted to help. I enjoy living life to the fullest and supporting others do the same. In my spare time you will find me with my dogs, enjoying family time, fishing, hiking, camping, gardening, playing softball, doing home renovations and crafting. Excited to see you in the clinic!
