**Deep tissue - Myofascial release - Trigger point therapy** Tarissa grew up in the beautiful Annapolis Valley, living in Bridgetown and later settling in Greenwood. After studying and working in the environmental field for a number of years, her passion for helping others led her to transition toward a health-centered career path.
Tarissa is dedicated to meeting patients exactly where they are on their unique healing journeys, supporting and empowering them to take an active role in their own healthcare. Believing that a collaborative partnership yields the best results, she takes a clinical approach to her treatments. Tarissa takes the time to thoroughly investigate each client's needs and develop an evidence-based, effective, and lasting treatment plan designed to help them stay healthy, active, and thriving. While Tarissa is experienced in treating a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions—helping her patients find relief from chronic pain, stress, and anxiety—she is also deeply committed to lifelong learning, always looking for opportunities to grow and further her clinical studies. Her treatments are primarily focused on deep tissue release and myofascial release, combined with personalized home care to maximize benefits between visits. Tarissa truly appreciates the opportunity to work with patients at any age and stage of life, and she always approaches care with a collaborative mindset, happily working alongside your broader healthcare team, including physiotherapists, osteopaths, and acupuncturists.
