Meet Sara Utecht, RMT

Sara graduated from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in 2018, after moving to Canada from the UK in 2016. Before becoming a massage therapist, Sara worked as a financial journalist for several years in London. She first became interested in massage therapy after suffering a chronic back injury while competing in judo as a teenager. After years of various treatments, she found that massage was extremely beneficial for providing pain relief. This inspired her to want to help others with similar issues. Sara aims to help her patients achieve their treatment goals as effectively as possible through treatment and education. She uses a variety of techniques during her treatment, including Swedish massage, active and passive stretching, myofascial release, and joint mobilisations. Sara is visually impaired and has a guide dog, Daisy, who comes to the clinic with her every day. In her spare time, Sara enjoys running, going to the gym, cross-country skiing, and of course going for walks and hanging out with Daisy. She is also an avid reader and a soccer fan, supporting Leicester City in the UK Premiership. Sara is also currently undertaking a course in canine massage.
