About Tanya Pillay

As a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) I use dynamic, holistic, integrative manual therapy techniques and coach movements and positions to assess and undo life’s wear and tear to the body. I’m different from most massage therapists because I work over clothing for freedom of movement for the whole body at once (treatment style resembles Shiatsu and Thai).

I provide impactful homecare exercises you can do anywhere at any level of physical health for maintenance and progress.

As a Trauma-Informed, Hypnosis-based Coach I support effective mental processes to achieve goals and enhance behaviours. In person or remotely, anyone can direct and amplify the power of the subconscious mind with the principles of Self-Hypnosis. You can benefit from my challenges and extensive journey to resolve them through theory and practice.

In any case, the quality of our relationship comes first and becomes the foundation for what we can achieve together by collaborating, keeping communication lines open, and modifying anytime it’s needed.
