Denae is a Registered Massage Therapist, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist, and Reiki Practitioner. She has been in practice since 2006, after graduating from the Massage Therapy Program at Fleming College, in Peterborough.
Denae knew from a very young age that she wanted to spend her life helping people feel good, and Massage Therapy seemed like the obvious path, because who doesn’t love going for a massage?
Once in the career, she discovered all the different paths she could take, and was very drawn to Craniosacral Therapy, and the profound effects it can have on the body, particularly the nervous system. She completed her Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy with Russell Mater, who has been treating and teaching for over 20 years.
Denae lives in Guelph with her husband and two daughters, and loves serving this beautiful community she calls home.
And a bit about CST:
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is a non-invasive practice, addressing structures of the spine, head, face, and throughout the body.
This gentle, hands-on technique uses static holds to help relieve tension in tissues, align bony and soft tissue structures, improve blood flow, and encourage healthy flow of cerebrospinal fluid through the head and spine.
It can have a prfound effect on the nervous system, resetting it to a restorative state, allowing the body to heal itself.
It is a great treatment for headaches, TMJ dysfuntion, post concussion/brain injury care (with clearance from MD), relief of stress and anxiety, and general pain and discomfort.

Jeannette is a Certified Foot, Hand, and Face Reflexologist as well as a certified Cupping Therapist. She will be offering Hand and Foot Reflexology Sessions at Affordable Acupuncture on Thursday mornings. She is available for treatments through Pathways Healing on Mondays until April, and will expand availability after April 1st.
Reflexology is the application of pressure to areas on the hands or feet. Reflexology is relaxing and may help to alleviate stress.
The theory behind reflexology is that areas or zones on the hands and feet correspond to the organs and systems of the body. Pressure and massage applied to these zones can help to bring relaxation and promote healing to the corresponding area of the body.
According to The Mayo Clinic, several studies indicate that reflexology can help with pain management, and other psychological symptoms, such as stress, anxiety and sleep quality. Jeannette is also well versed in meridian and acupressure theories and will incorporate those theories into her treatments.
Jeannette has achieved several energy modalities such as Reiki Master, Emergence Technique, BioEnergetic Synchronization Technique for humans and their companion animals, Learning Path, and Body Code. Jeannette has been a competitive athlete, medical laboratory technologist, professional skating coach, is a mother of two daughters, and married to an understanding, compassionate husband who has supported Jeannetteʼs passion for learning.
Jeannette developed an interest for alternative ways of regaining balance with exposure to reflexology and iridology as a child. When her children were born this interest became a passion. A quest to re-discover reflexology methods and vibrational technologies and techniques that are possible for everyone to access and regain their inherent original potential in health and in life. For Jeannette, vibration is the key. Living, feeling, and researching the energy that relays information throughout the body and field has been a life endeavor. Jeannette looks forward to assisting those interested in regaining their inner composure through discovery, learning and release.

Open minded and grounded in realism.
Healing is not a “one size fits all” like we are led to believe. We are all beautifully unique, with our own experiences and perspectives. We should celebrate this! Keeping this in mind, each and every one of us will approach our healing journey in our own way. My healing approach is holistic in nature, offering my open support to you.
I started out as a little kid with a love for collecting rocks and looking at the night sky, always asking “why” questions about absolutely everything and anything I could think of. I continued that passion for knowledge and completed my degree in Biomedical Toxicology and Business. After graduating, I worked in the food and pharmaceutical industries appreciating what these sectors have to offer. Although professionally fulfilled, I felt there was something “missing” in my life. I’ve always had a desire to genuinely help people.
I hit my version of rock bottom where I was emotionally, spiritually and physically at my worst. I continued asking the “why” questions, but this time about my health and spiritual growth. That’s when I found reiki. WOW. I was forced to focus on my healing journey and it was the best decision I ever made.
I am now a Usui Reiki Master and would be honoured to use my skills and unique perspective to help you along your healing journey, if that’s what feels right for you.
At this time, I offer reiki services at the Affordable Clinic on Thursday evenings. I’m always open to chat with you first to see if we’re a good fit, or to bond over awesome crystals and cool rocks.
Open minded and grounded in realism.
