Kimberly Paton
Registered Massage Therapist
Meet Kim
Kim has been a Registered Massage Therapist since 2014, after graduating from Georgian College with an Advanced Diploma of Massage Therapy. Her interest in massage therapy began through her own experience playing competitive hockey, where she developed an early interest in anatomy, movement and how the physical demands of sport can affect the body.
That athletic background continues to influence Kim’s approach to treatment today. She particularly enjoys working with athletes, active individuals and weekend warriors, whether they are recovering from an injury, returning to activity or looking to take a more proactive approach to keeping their body moving and functioning well. Her treatments may focus on muscular tension, mobility and movement restrictions, recovery from activity, or supporting rehabilitation and a return to sport following injury.
Kim has additional training in Soft Tissue Release, completing her certification in 2017. She incorporates this and other techniques into treatment based on the individual needs and goals of each client. Her treatments tend to have a focused, therapeutic approach, with pressure adapted to the individual and the goals of the treatment.
Kim also has a particular interest in pregnancy massage therapy and has completed additional training in prenatal care. She enjoys supporting clients throughout pregnancy, adapting treatment, positioning and pressure as their bodies change and their needs evolve.
Whether she’s working with someone training regularly, recovering from an injury, navigating pregnancy or simply wanting to stay active and feel their best, Kim brings an energetic, practical and individualized approach to treatment.
Outside of the clinic, Kim enjoys time with her family, staying active, working out and travelling.
