PAIGE WIEGAND: R.M.T & R.AC
Growing up active in sports, I have always been prone to injury and experienced firsthand the benefits of massage therapy and acupuncture. As a result, entering the alternative healthcare field was an easy career choice for me. A graduate of the 2200+ hours Grant MacEwan massage therapy program, I have been a Registered Massage Therapist since 2012.
Registered with the Canadian Massage and Manual Osteopathic Therapists Association (CMMOTA), I have continued to learn more about massage by taking continuing education courses. My knowledge spans many different therapies as I love to learn about the human body and the many ways to help it move towards health. Some modalities that I employ in my treatments include myofascial release, orthopedic massage, lymphatic drainage, craniosacral therapy, trigger point release, and cupping. I am well versed in pregnancy massage, having focused in my career on assisting women through the many changes that their bodies go through during the 40 week period, and after. I also have spent time focusing on addressing issues arising from poor postural habits, and helping my patients cope with the physical side effects of stress. With an outgoing, welcoming, and laid-back personality, I am a firm believer in reducing stress to help clients move towards their health goals.
As I am a therapist who loves to learn, after graduating from the Massage Therapy program I decided to go back to MacEwan University for the Acupuncture program. Having graduated in 2018, I have been working towards learning the best way to treat my patients with a combination of Eastern and Western medical knowledge. With a focus that has been predominantly on musculoskeletal issues - such as pain, swelling, decreased range of motion, and headaches - I have been striving to create the best possible combination treatment of acupuncture and massage.
I look forward to helping my patients further their journeys towards health with a personalized and well thought out treatment plan.
