Katie White, Co-Founder / Clinic Owner / Corporate Health Owner / RMT
Hi, I’m Katie! RMT and Co-Founder of For Health’s Sake! I grew up in a small beach town in Southern Ontario before moving to Toronto to start school and later my career. I always knew from a young age that I wanted to help people and work in health & wellness. I began my journey in Massage Therapy by gaining experience in various settings, but I discovered my true passion in multi-disciplinary clinics. Here, I’ve seen my clients achieve the best results through the combination of both eastern and western treatment practices.
Having worked many years in various clinics, I gained experience by treating a variety of clients, from the injured athlete to the office worker. I tailor the treatment by assessing client symptoms, posture, and pain patterns. In addition to treating an injured area or area of pain or discomfort, I look at the entire body as a whole and treat other areas that have been affected by compensating.
My treatment style consists mostly of swedish techniques, deep tissue, passive stretching, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and cupping. I modify the pressure to my clients’ preference and I also offer aromatherapy treatments where I integrate essential oils within the massage to amplify the experience. Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage Massage is my newest passion and addition to my services. I was trained in the Renata Franca method that came straight from Brazil.
I started For Health’s Sake with my business partner, Chloe, in 2018. I split my time as an RMT between both our clinics, and outside of that, I work from home managing them. I’m obsessed with health & wellness and I’ve always been very active. I love coffee, travelling, cooking, interior decorating, spending time with my dog and my family, and trying new food places.
