Hello, I’m Alen.

I give deep tissue massage and generally work with firm pressure. However, before integrating deeper techniques, I always take the time to feel and understand what is happening through my hands and how your body is responding.

Every person and every body is different. Depending on your needs, I may work with a specific area or take a broader approach to address the bigger picture. I also believe it is important for you to understand why I’m approaching your treatment in a particular way, so I do my best to explain my clinical reasoning and make sure the treatment makes sense to you.

I grew up in Korea and moved to Canada in 2016. Before becoming a healthcare professional, I worked in retail and as a cook. Outside of the clinic, I love cooking, trying good food, and hiking. Grouse Mountain is my favourite place to hike, so you’ll probably find me there whenever I have some free time.

Like many people who aren’t in healthcare, I didn’t always know much about my own body or health. After experiencing a number of injuries myself, I became interested in understanding how the body works and started studying health and rehabilitation. What began as a personal interest eventually became something I truly fell in love with—and, along the way, I came to understand the responsibility that comes with working in healthcare.

That journey ultimately led me to become a Registered Massage Therapist. I’m grateful to have the opportunity to use what I’ve learned to help people better understand their bodies, manage their concerns, and feel better.

Thanks for stopping by. I look forward to meeting you!

Chandler is a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor and Relational Somatic Therapist who works at the intersection of mind, body, and nervous system.

Sometimes what we carry in our bodies isn’t only physical. Stress, overwhelm, trauma, chronic pain, injury, and major life experiences can shape the way we breathe, brace, move, rest, and relate to our bodies. Somatic therapy offers a space to slow down and become curious about these patterns, combining therapeutic conversation with body awareness, nervous system support, trauma resolution and integration, movement, and other experiential practices.

Chandler’s work can be especially supportive alongside massage therapy, acupuncture, Pilates, physiotherapy, and other forms of body-based care. While these practices work directly with the physical body, somatic counselling creates space to explore the emotional and nervous-system experiences that may be intertwined with tension, pain, stress, or difficulty feeling at ease in your body.

Her approach is warm, collaborative, and experiential. Rather than treating therapy as a mind based practice, Chandler helps clients learn to speak the language of the body, where there is often stored implicit (unconscious) information and memory that shapes our every day experience. This can supporting greater awareness, regulation, self-trust, confidence, healthier relationships and a more connected relationship with themselves.

I approach each person’s story with curiosity, compassion, and a trauma-informed, patient-centered lens. To me, massage therapy is more than hands-on care, it’s a practice that encourages resilience, education, personal agency, and a collaborative connection with the mind, body, and nervous system beyond the treatment room.

From a young age I’ve held reverence for the body’s complex wisdom. I’m especially passionate about pain science and neurology, and how patterns, both individual and collective, shapes our experiences in our bodies and health.

Patients describe my treatments as deeply attuned, restorative, strong and flowing. I enjoy working with everything from nervous system decompression to orthopedically rehabilitative treatments, to simply facilitating a reconnection with your body in a positive way. My philosophy is never to “fix,” but to listen, tactilely and with presence, to where imbalance may be showing up, and to guide the body’s natural capacity for restoration. Every body is different and comes with its unique history and context!

I graduated from the 3000-hour Registered Massage Therapy Program at the Vancouver College of Massage Therapy. My background as a competitive athlete, having studied art history and practicing as a ceramicist, and 20 years of studying yoga and meditation, all inform my perspective on movement, curiosity, attunement, and the body’s innate wisdom. I will always remain dedicated to ongoing learning through continuing education courses or reading current research, to continually grow and refine my practice.

In my own time, you can find me going to the weekend farmer’s markets, listening to my vinyl records, playing soccer and practicing yoga, or making ceramics.
