I have always found the human body and soul combination to be fascinating which lead me to understand it from the eastern to western point or view.
During my own personal journey of healing and achieving a balanced lifestyle, I discovered a variety of self help tools that helped me and in turn can assist you with your spiritual and physical journey and help you achieve balance in your lifestyle where in today’s society can be difficult to do it on your own. As a Massage Therapist, I have learned to utilize my hands to help locate the imbalance and ultimately make my clients feel better. During my practice as a Massage Therapist, I decided to expand my learning in the world of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
In 2011, I travelled from Tunisia to Toronto to attend the Shiatsu School of Canada where I completed my certification for TCM Acupuncture. The philosophy of TCM have become a staple in my personal life, I became more aware of how the body functions, the source of health issues, how emotions. eating habits, environment and activities we do can have an impact on our health and bodies.
Today, I am able to do what I love – help people suffering from chronic pain and guide them towards solutions and overall improved wellbeing. By understanding the root cause of the imbalance and using a variety of modalities such as, deep tissue massage, myofascial release, trigger point release, Acupressure, Cupping, Acupuncture, Gua-Sha (Graston), Auricular acupuncture, Moxibustion and Tuina, I help my clients cope with their daily activities with ease.

Touch is the first sense we have that lets us know we are not alone. Touch is “the first to develop in the embryo and the first to offer an experience of human connection” (*Dana, 2019).
Alex Timoteo (she/her) approaches massage therapy as a way to provide safe touch in a professional healthcare environment. Through safe touch and therapeutic rapport, massage therapy has the ability to support people in accessing their parasympathetic nervous system state – i.e. the “rest and digest” state, the one that allows you to sleep better, digest well, dial down pain and overall feel more calm and grounded. If you’ve ever left a massage feeling like you were blissfully floating on a cloud, you already know how powerful of an effect massage can have on your nervous system and your overall well-being. By working collaboratively, Alex’s goal is for you to leave treatments feeling more at home in your body, with a renewed sense of empowerment in your own healing.
Alex graduated from Sutherland-Chan School of Massage Therapy in 2022. For ten years prior, Alex worked in community-based services supporting people living with trauma and mental health across various intersections of marginalization. Through her work as a feminist counsellor and advocate at a shelter for survivors of interpersonal violence/abuse, she saw what a tremendous positive impact bodywork can have on one’s physical and mental health. She realized she needed to learn about the
body, and how to treat the body so she could treat the person as a whole.
Alex holds an Honours Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a diploma from the Assaulted Women’s and Children’s Counsellor and Advocate program. She weaves together her experience in mental health and counselling with her knowledge and skills in hands-on treatment of soft tissues and joints to create a holistic and effective massage therapy treatment. She strives to create a trauma-informed, body-neutral, and trans-inclusive environment, as all bodies deserve dignified care.

Fun Facts
When Alex isn’t massaging, you can find her taking long walks in parks and ravines, doing yoga and pilates, or cooking while listening to podcasts that make her snort with laughter. She also loves to dance, read, and dabble in DIY body care and herbalism.
Areas of Focus
• Trauma & Mental Health
• Sleep Issues
• Breast & Top Surgery
• Scar work
• Relaxation
Alex is a settler of Portuguese and Swiss ancestry living on the traditional territory of many nations, including the Anishnabeg, the Haudenosaunee, the Chippewa, and the Wendat peoples. She is thankful to have the opportunity to work in the community on this land.
