In this week’s episode, my special guest is Karyn Hughes, RMT and Owner of Kneaded Touch.

Karyn is a proud mother of 3 wonderful kids, has been a Massage Therapist for 22 years, a doula, an IBCLC, and a professor of Massage Therapy at Algonquin College. She opened her first clinic in 2007 and now has 3 in the Ottawa area named after her love of baking - Kneaded Touch. In her free time, she volunteers with the Girl Guides, supports new RMTs, and loves to dote on her pets. She has found her passion in supporting and empowering women and children through their wellness journeys.

During our conversation with Karyn:

• We talked about her mission.
• What inspired her to become a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), specialize in pre/postnatal, and open her own practice?
• She specializes in (ie. Prenatal massage, prenatal, infant and child massage, Swedish massage, CranioSacral therapy, and Myofascial Release) - what is her process through each therapy?
• Walk us through how a pregnant woman can benefit from massage therapy throughout her pregnancy and post-partum. Let's say she decides to book multiple sessions with you within the 9 months, tell us your process. Which months would you recommend which therapy and why?
