Meet Kristen Smith

Registered Massage Therapist
Certified Yoga Teacher
Infant Massage Instructor

Kristen has been a Registered Massage Therapist since 2015 and has been a certified Prenatal and Postnatal Yoga Instructor since 2017.

Her love of prenatal and postnatal care comes from her own prenatal and postpartum experience where she noticed a lack of support for moms. From there, she knew she wanted to focus her career on this population.

Kristen’s goal is for all of her patients to feel supported and taken care of. Her classes focus on safely building strength and flexibility in the prenatal and postpartum body, while focusing on breath work and the pelvic floor. Her knowledge of the human body helps tailor her classes to the participant’s individual needs.

Kristen also offers yoga and fitness classes at Flow Physio + Wellness, you can view upcoming availability here.

Meet Nicole Bell

Registered Massage Therapist
Certified Life Coach
Reiki Master Practitioner

She obtained her Advanced Diploma in Massage Therapy at Sir Sandford Fleming College and became Registered Massage Therapist 2014.  Since then she has become a Certified Life Coach in 2020 and a full Reiki Master Practitioner by 2022 because she knows of the mind-body-soul connection; optimal healing does not happen without work in all three areas.
She finds the human body so fascinating; the things we are capable of, its ability to heal and grow, and what it is truly capable of. Massage Therapy was my calling, being able to help people feel better, fix and ease chronic pain, lower their stress and get them back to functioning is something she takes great pride in. Nicole also likes to use a number of modalities in her treatments to optimal results such as Cupping and Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation (IASTM).
She has a huge passion for women's health and being a healthcare advocate for women. She has taken additional certifications for prenatal and postpartum care, infant massage and pelvic floor therapy.  Nicole loves to be able to support other mom’s through their journey having gone through this herself with her two young kids.

Nicole offers a signature treatment that is a twist on the classic Indie Head Massage Treatment which is an extremely relaxing treatment that is also very therapeutic as it addresses areas of high tension and stress. The treatment consists of oils, aromatherapy, facial cupping, Gua Sha, hot towels and Massage Therapy techniques that focus on treating the upper back, shoulders, neck, face, jaw and head and is covered through your RMT benefits.
