Nicole Stephen

Registered Massage Therapy and Doula

Nicole graduated from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in 2007 and began her practice as an RMT in downtown Vancouver. Nicole was fortunate to engage a position as the official RMT for the Canadian Women’s National Soccer Team from 2008 through 2010. With the National Team Nicole attended the Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics, World Cup and Olympic qualifying tournaments and many other international tournaments and training camps. Her work with the National Team soccer players has given her great insight into many sports related conditions, injuries and high performance athletes.

As well as her work with athletes, Nicole’s interests also include the diagnoses and treatment of common issues such as; chronic postural dysfunctions, hamstring strains, and chronic headaches. These conditions are usually related to weaknesses and dysfunction in the body that Nicole will help to address.

Nicole’s experience as a Doula has also been a very valuable asset to her practice. She is mesmerized by a pregnant women’s body and the beauty of how it functions. Nicole is knowledgeable in the treatment and education of women on the many common dysfunctions that may occur while during pregnancy such as, low back pain, calf cramps and sciatica.

Nicole’s use of techniques may include:

  • Deep Tissue Massage
  • Myofascial Release
  • Muscle Energy Techniques
  • Joint Mobilizations
  • Patient Education on rehabilitative stretching and strengthening

Nicole is transitioning from a busy practice in Vancouver to be closer to home and shorten her commute. She moved to Port Moody in September 2010 with her husband and English Bulldog Molly.
