The foundation of Healing Waters Spa has always been wellness. We’re always saying to each other and to our clientele “Take care, be well”. The concept of wellness takes many forms and just as many meanings depending on who you ask; one facet of wellness that comes to mind is taking care of our physical bodies. With our new and expanded space, we’ve been able to welcome new members to our team who specialize in massage therapy.
There’s no time like the present to introduce you to our Registered Massage Therapists (RMTs) who are always here to aid in your wellness journeys. Each of them truly care for who passes through our doors and places trust in their healing hands. While all are held to the same standard of excellence, they each have their own personalities which shows in their technique!
Emily Sommers, RMT
Emily has been a Registered Massage Therapist since 2010, and has been the owner of Healing Waters Spa since 2019. The desire for meaningful connections is what initially brought Emily into the world of massage, and her love for her clients and the moments of wellness is what has had her stay. She took a leap of faith and took over ownership of Healing Waters Spa in 2019, allowing her ethos of tending to wellness and nurturing energy to become a massive part of what Healing Waters is today. Using focused techniques such as cupping and passive motion, Emily has curated her massage style to promote not only relaxation but enhance your physical wellbeing.
