About Kristina Peddie, RMT
Kristina graduated from West Coast College of Massage Therapy in New Westminster and has been a Registered massage therapist since 2011. She gets ridiculously excited when her patients make progress or gains either in the treatment room or out in their active lives. It can be so frustrating to want to be active and be held back because of injuries, and helping people safely ease back into their regular routine is very satisfying. Kristina especially likes hunting down trigger points, and puzzling out headaches. She utilizes stretching, exercises, and her knowledge of massage therapy techniques to help create a treatment plan to benefit each patient. Our expectant mums will be excited to know that Kristina uses 'pregnancy pillows' so that you can lay on your front during your massage!
Kristina was born and raised here in Surrey, and she couldn't imagine living anywhere else. She feels blessed to be so near her friends and family, and there is nothing she likes more than a lazy Saturday BBQ with family.
Kristina loves martial arts. In real life or the movies. She has been involved in her local Tae Kwon Do club almost as long as she has been a RMT, and she feels it's difficult to pinpoint what she loves about it. The exercise, the sparring, the thrilling competitions or just the discipline, she loves all of it! She was involved in the Tough Mudder in 2015, and that was the most grueling fun thing she has ever done on the side of a mountain, and she looks forward to doing it again in a couple of years.
