About Us

Hi, I’m Veronica! Some people discover their career; mine found me when I was just a kid with curious hands and a big heart. Growing up in a small town in Saskatchewan, I spent countless evenings happily massaging my family —half for the joy of helping them feel better, half in hopes of earning a shoulder rub in return. At a wedding when I was just 10 years old, I set up my “shoulder massage station” and made a whopping $40. That was the moment I realized: my hands could do more than offer comfort—they could truly make a difference. Years later, I followed that passion to The Professional Institute of Massage Therapy, where I earned my 2200-hour diploma. I’ve also completed additional certifications in Dynamic TMJ Dysfunction, Myosculpt Facial Massage, and Myofascial Release—specialties that allow me to address everything from stubborn jaw tension to deep, chronic pain patterns. When you’re on my table, I’m fully present with you. I take time to listen, to understand your needs, and to create a treatment that meets you where you’re at—whether that’s easing chronic pain, improving mobility, calming an overactive nervous system, or simply helping you unwind and breathe a little deeper. My approach blends professional skill with a personable touch, because I believe healing happens best when you feel both cared for and comfortable. Outside of the clinic, life is full of adventure. I live here in Cochrane with my boyfriend and our dachshund, Lyla, and we’re often out exploring—camping, hiking, snowboarding, biking, or soaking up the mountain air. You might spot me on the trails, at a fitness class, or treating myself to a scoop (or two!) at MacKay’s Ice Cream. I’m so excited to connect with this community and help you feel your very best—mind and body.

Hi! I’m Dr. Cejaye, and my work is rooted in a lifelong love of the body; how it moves, adapts, heals, and tells its story. Living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) has been one of my greatest teachers, and has shaped the way I practice in a deeply personal way. I specialize in working with Ehlers-Danlos and other chronic conditions, bringing both clinical expertise and lived understanding to the table. I know firsthand the nuances of pain, instability, and nervous system sensitivity, and I approach this work with a level of care, precision, and respect that honours each person’s unique experience. I graduated from the Calgary College of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture with my Doctor of Acupuncture designation, alongside completing my 2200-hour Registered Massage Therapy certification. My path into this medicine evolved naturally from over two decades of yoga practice and more than 1000 hours of training in yoga, anatomy, and Eastern philosophy. Along the way, I’ve also studied Sport Fitness Nutrition, Western Herbology, Iridology, Reflexology, Reiki, and Acusculpting. I’m the creator of Fascial Release Technique (FRT), a gentle yet deeply effective approach to relieving pain, supporting injury recovery, and restoring balance within the connective tissue system. I see fascia as a living, intelligent network; one that holds both structure and the stories we carry. My work is also guided by my spiritual path and teachings from Cree Elders, woven together with Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Eight Extraordinary Vessels, and Esoteric/Shamanic acupuncture. This allows treatments to move beyond symptom relief and into deeper physical, emotional, and energetic alignment. When you step into my space, you’re met with warmth, openness, and genuine care. I take time to deeply listen to what your body is communicating, and each treatment is thoughtfully tailored to meet you where you are. Sessions may include acupuncture, cupping, tuina massage, fascial release, Reiki, chakra balancing, and sound therapy, all guided by what you need in that moment. I support a wide range of concerns, including pain and injury recovery, scar tissue regeneration, trauma and emotional health, nervous system regulation, and chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia, TMJ, and Ehlers-Danlos. At the heart of my work is a simple intention: to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported; so your body can soften, recalibrate, and remember its natural capacity to heal.

Hi, I’m Andrea! Over the past 15 years, I’ve built a diverse career as a personal trainer, sports team trainer, kinesiologist, and fascial stretch therapist. Most recently, I became a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), allowing my treatments to be covered by insurance. I’ve worked with a wide range of clients, including athletes, seniors, and everyday individuals dealing with chronic pain, injuries, or limited mobility. I take a holistic, root-cause approach to treatment, focusing on long-term relief, injury recovery, and improving overall movement and function. I’m committed to supporting my clients through every phase of their wellness journey. My philosophy on health, wellness, and fitness is grounded in the principle: train for how you move, not just how you look. I believe that strength and mobility are the foundation of a functional, pain-free life. My goal is to help you move better, reduce pain, and build a body that feels strong, capable, and built for longevity, not just appearance.

Hi, I’m Rylee! I specialize in helping my patients heal from pain and postural imbalances through massage therapy. My greatest joy comes from the progress when helping patients heal and begin to feel like themselves again, and I am honoured for the opportunity to help you feel better. 5 fun facts about me: I love anything to do with wellness as it has become my passion while studying for the past three years. My true love is the piano, my favourite songs to play being classical and film soundtrack pieces. I am fascinated with the root cause of imbalances in the body and love studying massage therapy and traditional Chinese medicine to better understand where symptoms and pain come from. I love spending time outdoors in the mountains and with my family. I love animals, especially my snuggly yellow lab. I love what I do because as someone who has suffered with an injury and chronic pain, I feel truly grateful to alternative medicine and know first hand how it can impact quality of life. My favourite part about my work is the progress of my patients.

Hello! My name is Aeverie, an east-coast Canadian who traded traffic for trails! I followed my heart west in pursuit of three things I love most: healing through massage, the Canadian Rockies, and life in the saddle. I’ve been an equestrian since the age of three, and years spent in the barn and in the arena taught me firsthand what soreness, imbalance, and injury can feel like. That lived experience — understanding the body under both strain and recovery — is what ultimately led me to the career path of massage therapy. As both a Registered Massage Therapist and Certified Professional Medical Esthetician, I move seamlessly between deeply therapeutic work and full body relaxation. I offer a range of specialized modalities — including cupping therapy, TMJ treatment, post-operative care, deep tissue massage, and sports and wellness massage — tailored for teens, adults, and seniors. Whether you’re seeking focused relief for stubborn tension or a soothing and restorative session, each treatment is customized with the goal of delivering meaningful and lasting results, helping you move better, feel better, and stay better. Now living locally in Cochrane, I’ve truly fallen in love with the strong sense of community and the many wonderful people who call this town home. Being part of such a welcoming and vibrant place has made my work even more meaningful, as I’m able to support the health and wellbeing of the community around me. I’d love the opportunity to support you on your health and wellness journey and look forward to meeting you at Align Wellness soon!
