Kathleen Dean

RMT

Kathleen is a Registered Massage Therapist, registered with the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario. She was formerly an RMT in San Diego, California where she first learned about the benefits of massage therapy and practiced her craft for seven years before moving back to Ontario to start all over again.

A recent honours graduate of Trios College (formerly International Academy of Applied Health), Kathleen has also explored her interest in myofascial techniques with hands-on seminars around the USA, learning the John F. Barnes methodology. Her other workshops include applied aromatherapy, and she recently completed a TMJ workshop here in Ottawa.

With a broad range of experience, from equestrian and cycling sports, performing arts, and working in IT, Kathleen is able to identify with many different aspects of how the body responds to repetitive patterns, and uses her understanding of those mechanics to help clients with their goals. She is a passionate advocate of massage therapy for physical and mental well-being and encourages a whole-mind-and-body approach to health. Her focus in treatment is being curious, present, and open so that she is in harmony with her clients.

Kathleen enjoys hiking, reading, and gourmet cooking in her free time and tends to be a home-body until someone reminds her how much she loves to travel.

  • Friday & Saturday 9:30-12:00
