Andi Shannon, RMT
Registered Massage Therapist
Andi has been practicing as an RMT in the Alberni Valley for over 17 years. Contributing to the community in a positive way is one of her main purposes, and she sets out to live that goal every day in her dedication to her patients in her practice as an RMT, and in time spent coaching young athletes.
Years of athletics gave her solid footing in high performance strength and conditioning training, sports injuries and rehabilitation. Extensive training meant extensive therapy – which grew her respect for massage therapists and an understanding for using multiple therapies and modalities to rehabilitate an injury. Years of working a physical job and balancing a busy family life have given her a deeper understanding of the need for maintenance on old injuries, chronic overuse injuries, the importance of stress relief, and a recognition that our ideal health goals are often sacrificed due to time constraints and the stresses of day to day life.
Whether working as your primary therapist or collaborating with other practitioners, Andi aims to help patients from all walks of life work towards reaching their physical goals. She has a patient centred approach and focuses on evidence based practice through a variety of soft tissues manipulation techniques.
