Ashley Arnold

 

Ashley completed her education at Vancouver College of Massage Therapy (2015) and is now overjoyed to have finally made the move here to Banff with her little family!

As a competitive and semi-pro beach volleyball athlete Ashley has endured complex injuries over the years where alternative interventions shaped her understanding and love of the body. As a Coach and Volunteer Therapist to her Club and Varsity Teams, she had the phenomenal experience of treating athletes pre- and post- event, as well as maintenance throughout the season to assist in their peak performance.

But it was throughout her education that Ashley was exposed to a more intuitive method of treatment that she now gravitates towards. She has continued her education in MFR (Myofascial Release), Approximation Techniques, MET (Muscle Energy Techniques), Postural Dysfunction, Facet Dysfunction, Pelvic Balancing, CST (Cranial Sacral Therapy), Yoga as Remedial Exercise; and looks to further her training in Visceral Manipulation. She views the body holistically and focuses on finding root cause dysfunction, as well as encouraging the mind body connection throughout her treatments. Our injuries and dysfunction are a product of many different systems working out of alignment; Eventually something must give. It is therefore important to treat all contributing components to dysfunction to realign our systems to reach our optimal level of health and wellness. This is YOUR healing journey; and Ashley looks forward to being a supportive piece of that journey.

In her downtime, you will find Ashley snowboarding, playing volleyball, hiking or just anywhere outdoors with her husband and toddler. Further exploring the Bow Valley has been an incredible journey to begin for her and her family.

He is happy to offer his professional advice on strengthening exercises, stretching or movement that may help outside the treatment room.
