Ella is a student massage therapist in her second year of the 2200-hour Massage Therapy Diploma program at Mount Royal University in Calgary, AB. Her education, combined with a strong belief in massage therapy as an essential part of her own health and wellbeing, has shaped her commitment to supporting clients on their path toward whole-body wellness. As a developing professional, Ella brings curiosity, dedication, and an evidence-informed, client-centered approach to every treatment.
Ella’s style of massage incorporates deep fascial release, passive and active stretching, and trigger point therapy, along with slow, therapeutic techniques often delivered with her forearms and elbows. She values relaxation as a necessary component of healing and strives to create treatments that address the body as a whole. Her goal is always to foster a meaningful mind–body connection for every client.
Ella works with a diverse range of people, including those recovering from acute or chronic injuries, athletes of all levels, pre- and post-natal clients, and individuals looking to maintain or improve their overall health. She also welcomes clients living with long-term conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s, anxiety, depression, or addiction. She believes strongly that massage therapy can support physical and emotional wellbeing—no matter where someone is starting from.
As a student therapist, Ella isn’t able to offer direct billing to insurance companies but provides accessible treatment options that make massage more affordable for those without health benefits or those seeking regular, preventative care. She is committed to creating an inclusive, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where everyone can experience individualized therapeutic support.
Outside the clinic, Ella finds joy and balance in the mountains. Growing up with the Rockies as her backyard, she continues to nurture her own mental health through biking, hiking, skiing, and running. Life in the mountains fuels her passion for wellness and gives her the energy she brings to her clients each day.
