At Bodhi Wellness, our team of Massage Therapists bring together a diverse range of experience, techniques, and personalized approaches to care. What they all share is a deep commitment to helping you feel better in your body.


Whether you’re looking for deep therapeutic work, a calming nervous system reset, or a blend of both,  there’s a Bodhi Canmore RMT who is the perfect fit for you.


Meet Blaine Kuefler - Acting Lead RMT


Blaine is known for his deeply intuitive touch and ability to quickly tune into what the body needs, often uncovering areas of tension that his clients didn't even realize they were holding.  


Blaine has a natural gift for making people feel safe and cared for, bringing a calm confidence and genuine warmth that puts his clients at ease before they even step into the treatment room.   


His massage treatments are thoughtful and intentional, seamlessly blending deep, targeted muscular work with a smooth, relaxing flow that also supports the kind of nervous system release that goes beyond the muscles.  Blaine’s clients often highlight his ability to find the root of their discomfort and create noticeable change, whether that's improving mobility, relieving pain, or simply helping the body feel more balanced.

   

Blaine is a great fit for:   Clients who value deep, effective muscular work alongside a warm and intuitive presence that helps the nervous system truly let go and release chronic tension or guarding that isn't purely physical.



Meet John Preskar - RMT


If you're an athlete, weekend warrior, or someone whose body takes a beating from training, travel, or an active mountain life, John is the RMT you want in your corner.


With over 30 years of massage experience, John's approach leans sports massage and therapeutic technique. He understands how muscles, joints, and movement patterns work together, and treats accordingly, assessing what your body actually needs to help you recover and get back to full function.


John’s clients appreciate his knowledgeable, upbeat presence as much as his skilled hands; sessions with John often come with genuine conversation, health tips, biohacking insights, or random facts you didn't know you needed. 


John also specializes in Craniosacral Therapy, offering a gentle, deeply calming treatment focused on nervous system regulation and deep relaxation. 


John is a great fit for: Athletes and active clients wanting sports massage and therapeutic recovery work from a knowledgeable, high-energy RMT, or anyone seeking deep nervous system relaxation through craniosacral therapy.



Meet Edna Rojas - Massage Therapist (no insurance claims)


Edna brings a rare combination of training to her treatments: a background in physiotherapy, osteopathic manual therapy, craniosacral therapy, and massage therapy. Rather than working from one lens, she draws on all four, giving her work a unique depth and treating the body as a connected system rather than a set of isolated problem areas.


Edna is especially known for her attentiveness. She checks in often throughout treatment, reading how your body is responding and adjusting pressure and technique to match, so the experience stays aligned with your comfort from start to finish.


Clients appreciate Edna’s treatments as deeply therapeutic yet calming and restorative, leaving them feeling both physically eased and genuinely settled in their body.


Edna is a great fit for: Clients who appreciate a holistic approach to treatment informed by a range of disciplines and massage techniques for whole-body relief.

***Please note that Edna completed her training overseas and therefore her treatments cannot be claimed through insurance. 



Meet Suzanne Wilson - RMT


If you’re looking for a massage that feels both deeply therapeutic and genuinely caring, Suzanne offers a beautifully balanced experience.


Suzanne brings a compassionate, client-centered approach to every treatment, taking the time to understand each person’s needs and ensuring they feel comfortable and supported throughout. Her strong foundation in anatomy and physiotherapy allows her to deliver treatments that are both precise and effective, while still feeling smooth and relaxing.


Suzanne’s massage is most often described as attentive with the ideal balance of pressure and flow. She is known for thoughtfully adapting her techniques and focusing on areas that need the most attention without losing the overall sense of relaxation. 


Suzanne is a great fit for: Those who value a caring, attentive therapist who blends therapeutic skill, anatomical expertise, & a gentle, supportive approach.



Meet Jolaine St Pierre  - RMT


Jolaine delivers a massage experience that feels nurturing and deeply effective. Her style is smooth, continuous, and intentional, with a rhythm that helps the body gradually release tension without disruption. Rather than focusing on isolated areas, she works in a way that connects the whole body, creating a treatment that feels cohesive and grounding.


If you're navigating pregnancy or postpartum and want an RMT who truly understands what your body is going through, Jolaine is a natural fit. Alongside her massage training, she also works as a doula, giving her a unique depth of knowledge in prenatal and postpartum care.


Jolaine also offers sound therapy, a unique alternative to hands-on massage that uses sound and vibration to support deep relaxation and nervous system regulation.


Jolaine is a great fit for: Someone who appreciates flow, consistency, and a gentle, nurturing approach. Clients seeking prenatal or postpartum massage from a therapist with doula experience.



Meet Susan Lavery - RMT


If you're looking for attuned and restorative care that incorporates physical, emotional, and energetic healing, Susan is the RMT for you.


With over 30 years of experience, Susan blends therapeutic massage, craniosacral therapy, reflexology, and reiki into treatments that are thoughtful, precise, and highly attuned to each client's needs.


Her gentle positivity and enthusiasm make clients feel cared for the moment they walk in, with an easy, unguarded warmth that makes you feel right at home. Susan’s clients often describe her presence as steadying in itself, and her treatments are especially supportive for those navigating stress and mental health challenges, as well as anyone in need of deep nervous system recovery.


Susan is a great fit for: Those seeking deep therapeutic yet restorative care at a physical, emotional, and energetic level, from an RMT whose positive energy and steady supportive presence make every session feel like a soft place to land.



Meet Harry Jassi - RMT


If you love deep tissue massage - the slow, controlled, effective kind - Harry is your therapist.


Harry brings a background in Ayurvedic principles to his work, an approach rooted in the idea that true healing comes from understanding the whole person, not just the area of complaint. That perspective shapes how he treats: intentional, unhurried, and focused on restoring balance rather than simply working a muscle.


His treatments are focused and consistent, with steady pressure reaching deeper layers of tension while still feeling grounded and restorative. Clients often note significant relief in the neck, shoulders, and upper body after just one session. If you want to feel deeply worked and genuinely relaxed, Harry delivers that balance beautifully.


Harry is a great fit for: Clients who appreciate firm, intentional deep tissue work rooted in Ayurvedic principles, with a calm & peaceful energy that supports an unwavering sense of tranquility.



Meet Mark Whitfield - RMT


Mark's specialty is deep tissue work delivered with a grounded, approachable presence, technical skill paired with a natural sense for pacing and pressure that keeps a session feeling relaxing even when the work itself is deep. His background and appreciation for high-end service are reflected in the way he approaches each session, ensuring clients feel both cared for and comfortable from start to finish.


Mark’s clients describe his treatments as effective, professional, and well-rounded, praising his ability to deliver focused deep tissue work without losing the sense of ease and relaxation throughout the session.


A great fit for: Clients who want strong, effective therapeutic work from a therapist whose calm, approachable presence keeps the whole experience feeling relaxing rather than intense.



Meet Cheryl Standing - RMT Coordinator (currently on leave)

Her approach is both clinical and intuitive, with a remarkable ability to identify underlying issues and tailor each treatment accordingly, whether it’s addressing injuries, tension patterns, or long-standing restrictions.


Clients often highlight a massage with Cheryl as one of the best they’ve had, regularly noting significant relief from chronic pain, increased mobility, and lasting results after just one session.
