Harpreet Badesha
Massage Therapist in NW (Calgary)
Name: Harpreet Badesha
Joined team: April 1, 2024
Location: Crowfoot
Language: English, Hindi, Punjabi, Urdu
Services: Massage Therapy
Modalities: Swedish Relaxation therapy, Deep tissue therapy, Hot Stone Therapy, Myofascial Cupping, Hot Oil Scalp Massage, Pre/Post Sports Massage, Trigger Point Release, Lymphatic Drainage Massage, Posture Correction Therapy, Therapeutic Treatment with Therapeutic Exercise and Stretching (for MVA’s, Work related injury, or Postural compensation)
I am a recent graduate from Makami College, but even so, I have had about 1 year of hands-on experience, from working alongside a chiropractor and other massage therapists in a treatment clinic. On top of the experience from working with clients that had injuries, I have had a few opportunities over the duration of my schooling to work with clients in maintenance and spa-style relaxation therapy through the college clinic and occasional spa days. I firmly believe that, to treat an individual you can not expect to only give the client treatment or relaxation therapy, but in fact for the client to feel the most value out of a massage they need relaxation, treatment, and a confident but understanding therapist in each session. I also believe that more than I the client know what they want and need and so I keep an open policy with my clients to not be afraid to say if I think something or feel something that possibly relates to the issue, as those points will only help the therapist work out a plan that best suits your personal/work life and fits in with your expectations from the therapy.
