Taunya MacDonald - Registered Massage Therapist
As a student, Taunya always asked the most challenging questions. Always wanting to know more information about an injury or pathology, her keen interest has benefited the patients who receive some of the most current information and manual treatment techniques that comprise her treatment.
Taunya's fascination with the human body made her an eager student, a passionate and enthusiastic tutor for massage students and a well rounded teaching assistant at the Boucher Naturopathic Institute. She has studied many post-graduate treatments, two of which are manual lymphatic drainage and systemic deep tissue massage. Taunya’s “tool box” of techniques, ranging from the lightest pressure to some that require deep comfortable pressure, ensures her patients receive the most safe and effective treatments.
Outside of the clinic Taunya has a “green thumb” as an avid gardener.
