Gina Tallio, RMT

Gina strongly believes our bodies are amazing things. She is capable of incredible feats in order to heal and function although at times it can need some assistance along the way in that healing process. Gina’s passion is being a part of that process, to bring about healing in as a holistic way as possible. The excitement of seeing the differences that are made after a massage treatment is what inspires her every day and makes her love what she does even more.

In treatment, Gina is passionate about helping restore balance and function by concentrating on everything from soft tissue or muscle problems to joint dysfunctions. Her approach is that of holistic balance, to believe that everything is connected. When one part or piece is out of balance then things are brought out of balance everywhere as well. An important step in this process for Gina is the energy or intent brought into the treatment.

Along with the treatment, Gina will send you with home care activities that can be worked into a busy daily schedule and be a good stepping stone on the road to healing that we have begun.

Graduated from a 2,700 hour RMT program at Vancouver Career College in 2016. In order to be licensed she had taken the most in-depth and extensive examination process in North America. Towards the end of her program she had conducted a case study in which she worked with a patient with early symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis, to help maintain mobility and restore some of the lost fine motor movements in wrists and hands. Her goals were to maintain function and postpone the signature deformities that occur with Rheumatoid Arthritis for as long as possible. In this time she has gained even a greater appreciation for the human body and its resilience.
