Let touch and body weight comfort and rejuvenate you.
Nuru is a type of body-to-body massage. The idea is to use various parts of your body to massage the other person. Rather than only using my hands, as with most massages, I will also use my elbows, knuckles, knees, and shins. I will get onto the table with you and use my body weight to comfort you and provide a deeper massage. It's like getting massaged by a weighted blanket! Nuru tends to have a very sexual image, but what I provide is a holistic version that focuses on feelings of closeness, similar to hugs or cuddling.
I like to describe my sessions as non-sexual intimacy. I wholly believe in the healing and restorative power of physical touch. I want you to leave feeling pampered, nurtured, and if you're the chatty type, heard. That said, I DO NOT offer sexual services of any kind. I don't answer texts of this nature, and if you ask or insinuate this during our session, you will be asked not to rebook.
My session may feel backward compared to a usual massage. You will start on your back fully draped. I'll start with a scalp massage, then move down the arms and hands, then do the fronts of the legs and (if you want) feet. After you flip, I will massage my way back up the body, undraping parts as I go. When I do the nuru, it is easier if you are undraped so as not to interrupt the flow of the massage. I do extensive glute massaging (unless this is a no-touch zone for you), so it is recommended to be nude or wear underwear that doesn't cover the glutes (buttocks/cheeks). After, I will use a hot towel to wipe off any excess oil and finish with a pampering rub-down using unscented, professional lotion.
But you can call me Vern. A little about me: I'm Year 1 massage trained and have always been drawn to careers that lift people's spirits. I spent many years as a cook (and food remains one of my top love languages), and in recent years, I have been a surrogate, a stay-at-home mum, and a writer and self-published author. Whether cooking, creating stories for others to get lost in, or pampering people with massage, I take joy in bringing simple happiness to others.
I've always believed in the healing nature of touch and connection. I think Covid was a jarring and lonely time for many people, and really emphasized how integral it is for us to get out in the world, have great conversations, learn about others, and experience physical touch in supportive ways. I always want you to leave me feeling a little brighter, lighter, and less stressed. One of the most important things we can do in our day-to-day lives is see each interaction as an opportunity to leave the other person in a better state than we found them. I strive for this.

I am an MT - not an RMT. While I am Year 1 massage trained, I am not a registered therapist, and therefore cannot bill insurance. What I provide is meant to be relaxing, not therapeutic. While I'm happy to use deeper pressure and have been told I have a very nice touch, I do not specialize in injuries or rehabilitation. That said, I am happy to focus on your problem areas if you have any.
I currently take cash, e-transfer, debit and CC.
You can book with me using the booking form below or by texting me directly at 780-991-5510. Texting is often better than calling, as I am not always able to answer the phone, but will always get back to your text when I see it.
Due to the nature and closeness of my sessions, I do ask that you come to your appointment freshly showered. Even if you have a desk job and have been sitting all day, please give yourself the time to go home and have a quick rinse.
Mostly, to relax and allow yourself to unwind! I love to chat, so conversation is very welcome, but am also happy to stay quiet if you prefer. I'll have relaxing music playing. It should be noted that even when I am on the table with you, you are expected to keep your hands to yourself and lay still.
The purpose of my sessions is really connection, relaxation, and indulgence. A half-hour feels rushed and isn't enough time for you to see optimal physical or mental benefits. You deserve at least an hour.
Short Answer: No.
Nuru is traditionally done with a seaweed-based gel mixed with water. It is very slippery and excellent if you're sliding your whole body over someone. The techniques I use require control and precision to be effective and are better done with a limited amount of oil. I use coconut by default, but also have an unscented massage oil if you prefer/are allergic.
Not at all! I'm queer, I love all genders, and my sessions are a safe space. I also love seeing humans of all races, weights, body types, ages, etc.
I only have one massage table and I prefer to see clients one-on-one.
Nope! And that will never be offered as an option. I'll be in a sports bra and shorts, which allow full movement so I can use my legs and arms freely to massage you.
Like I said above, nuru has a very sexual reputation, but the form of it I offer IS NOT THAT.
