Brittany Elder

RMT, TCM Techniques/Cupping

Although Britt has only been a practicing massage therapist since 2019, the calling to help people where she can, has been been years in the making. Through her schooling from the 2200 hour program at the Canadian Institute of Chinese Medicine, she was fortunate enough to have been taught both Eastern and Western medicine. This allows her, to approach treatment in many ways that value a holistic system. Britt is passionate about breath-work and enjoys cupping. She regularly uses cups on herself as well.

When booking in a treatment with Britt, you can expect her to show up. “For my practice it’s just to meet people where they are, and listen. Some people need a clinical support box; some people need an emotional or energetic approach; it’s all welcome, and it’s not my job to tell anyone what they need. It’s my job to listen to their needs, and respect where they are at.”

Britt sees massage as an important part of someone’s life because humans need compassion. One way we experience that support is through mindful touch. Massage is helpful in a wide variety of conditions because the circulation of our blood is necessary to feel better physically. There’s so much stress out there, that Britt wants you to unplug for an hour or two. Yes, we said two! Britt offers two hour treatments for those that need the extra time.

When Britt isn’t working, you’ll probably find her cooking up a delicious soup, browsing the seed section at a plant shop for her garden, or following her cat around the house.

Best wellness advice: “Be curious. Wonder about what is going on in your mind & body, and be open to hear your body. And always, meet your first limit; respect that limit. But then be curious about it too!”
