I am energetic and passionate Registered Massage Therapist who specializes in a comprehensive range of techniques—including Swedish, deep tissue, trigger points, hot stones, cupping and scalp massage. I offer a deeply therapeutic and rejuvenating experience designed to address both chronic pain and total relaxation. I often combine these modalities to provide a personalized, full-body treatment that boosts circulation, reduces stress, and releases muscle adhesions. Deep Tissue & Trigger Point Therapy: Focuses on realigning deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue to relieve chronic pain and stubborn knots.

I always listen to your needs, assessing areas of tension to create a custom session rather than a generic routine.
I believe in the healing power of touch and aim for clients to leave feeling fully restored, often combining techniques like muscle stripping with hot stones for maximum relief.

Dr. Nathaniel Graham is graduated from Life Chiropractic College West, California. His decision to become a chiropractor was shaped by personal experience.

That experience inspired him to become a chiropractor so he could help others the way he had been helped.

Dr. Graham recognizes how life’s physical demands and everyday stressors can contribute to tension and changes in function. His approach is focused on supporting the body’s natural ability to adapt and recover, helping patients move better, return to the activities that matter most to them, and ultimately feel like themselves again.

Hello everyone, I am excited to announce that I am joining Massage Addict Cochrane team. After serving Cochrane community for a while I decided to join this team of expert professionals to support clients on larger scale in our town.  

I am a board certified Doctor of Acupuncture with a deep-rooted passion for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). I have embarked on a fulfilling journey to blend ancient healing practices with modern wellness. I am also a Registered Massage Therapist with 15 years of experience. Due to an injury while practicing massage therapy, I was drawn to the holistic approach of TCM, fascinated by its ability to harmonize the body’s energy, promote healing and overall health. This interest grew into a professional calling, leading to rigorous training and clinical experience in acupuncture, herbal medicine, and integrative health practices. 

My approach to both acupuncture and massage therapy is patient-centred, focusing on understanding each individual’s unique needs and crafting personalized treatment plans, which emphasis the integration of body and mind, helping clients to find balance and rejuvenation through acupuncture and therapeutic massage. 

I do believe in positive energy, meditation and pray which keeps my mind calm, ability to control stress and regain my positive energy back to myself to pass it on to my clients. My style of living is to prevention verses repair. I take herbs and vitamins to support immunity and longevity.
