SHANNON MACDONALD - RMT
My name is Shannon and I graduated from the 3000 hour Registered Massage Therapy diploma program at the West Coast College of Massage Therapy Victoria in 2010. Since then I have expanded my experience to include massaging in a backcountry ski lodge, traveling with a team for mountain bike races, and extensive work in a clinical setting where I treated a range of recreational to professional athletes of all ages and abilities, pre and post natal mama's, patients experiencing tempromandibular jaw dysfunction, and everything in-between. I approach massage treatments in a therapeutic manner through combining the use of various modalities such as myofasical release, trigger point therapy, and deep tissue to name a few, and I see the value in educating my patients as well as the continued education of myself.
Having grown up in the Rockies, I've always maintained an active outdoor lifestyle whether it's snowboarding, mountain biking, or a hike with friends. Consequently I understands the importance of a patients desire to maintain their overall physical health or the desire to rehabilitate and get back out there in whatever their passion entails. I also see the benefit in building a strong therapeutic relationship and how that leads to a better more efficient treatment overall.
When I'm not in the clinic you can find me in the snow, on the dirt or hanging out at home with my family and digging in the garden.

KRISTI EASTON - RMT
Hi! I'm Kristi and I graduated from Foothills College of Massage Therapy in 2003. Since then I have worked in a variety of clinics, backcountry lodges, and spent 6 years traveling with the Canadian Ski Cross team on the World Cup circuit, including the 2010 Olympics.
I find the human body completely fascinating and I am always excited to learn about the latest science on how we, as practitioners, can help aid in the body's ability to heal and get stronger. I am passionate about injury rehabilitation, athlete development, pre and post natal massage. Patient education is an important part of my treatments, as I believe the more someone understands about their body, the more success they will have in achieving better health and preventing injury.
I have lived in Golden since 2005 and love being a part of this healthy, active community. When I'm not at work I try to spend my time enjoying the amazing mountains that surround us hiking, running, biking or skiing. Recently, I have found a new passion for weight training which has given me a whole new perspective on the importance of cross training and building strength for our regular activities of daily living. I also love food, learning how to grow it, and it's role in health and wellbeing.

SHAUNA LANGFIELD - RMT

Hi, I'm Shauna. I am honoured to be of service to the community, facilitating safe and authentic space for therapeutic relationships. I believe that human touch and intentional presence curates a place for the body to shift into alignment. The massage I offer merges focused therapeutic work with relaxation to address the client's top priorities. I integrate various modalities, combining deep tissue, swedish, myofascial, trigger point therapy and stretching techniques, while working collaboratively with my clients.
I have been practicing massage since 2017 since I graduated from Vancouver School of Bodywork and Massages's 600 hr program. My work at Great Canadian Heli skiing brought me to Golden and revealed my passion for this profession. After two seasons I pursued further education while continuing my work at the lodge, various spas and within my own practice. I graduated from MH Vicars School of Massage Therapy in 2021.
In my spare time you can find me foraging wild foods, teaching hide-tanning classes, experimenting in the kitchen, crafting, and growing food and flowers.
