Hilary Krumm Perinatal RMT

Hilary is a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) whose practice is centered exclusively on prenatal and postnatal care. She incorporates a therapeutic approach that includes skilled hands-on soft tissue mobilization, specific perinatal exercise and homecare instructions, and positive patient empowerment. Pairing manual care with active care and motivating patients to tap into their inner strength helps clients take control of their own wellness through personalized self care routines. There are few other stages in life where this holistic approach is more impactful than during the pregnancy and early postnatal journey!

Her desire is to empower women during pregnancy and to promote optimal health as they enter into labour and postpartum recovery. She has taken advanced post-graduate classes in prenatal massage and postnatal core and pelvic floor rehabilitation. A true learning enthusiast, Hilary intends to continue expanding her knowledge of pelvic floor dysfunction, infant massage, breast massage, and post-Cesarean scar treatments.

Hilary is also passionate about supporting the families through their breastfeeding journey.  She has completed the 136-hour Breastfeeding Counselling course through Douglas College and hopes to become an Internationally Certified Lactation Consultant in the coming years.

Education
Hilary has attended many other courses over the last 10 years for continued professional and clinical development, these happen to be the most recent relevant to her current practice.
