 Janthira Hillton – 2200 hr RMT

I was born in a small town Northeast of Thailand. I learned a lot about massage with my father before I began Traditional Thai massage classes; he is a traditional Thai massage therapist who never charged people for treatment. I graduated from Traditional Thai Massage, Thai Aromatherapy, Thai Reflexology and Thai Orthopedic Massage from Thailand. I have over 2 years experience as a massage therapist at Banyan Tree Spa & Resort in Thailand. In 2012, I moved to Canada, and graduated from the 2200 hour Orthopedic Massage program from Turner Institute Massage School in Calgary. Most of my massage style I bring from Thailand, even table massage too. I really enjoy working as a massage therapist and I like showing people how Thai massage can assist with pain relief. I do believe in Thai massage because it has been practiced for over a thousand years, and was originally developed 2,500 years ago.

Parminder Deou – 2200 hr RMT 

My name is Parminder and I absolutely love what I do. I graduated from NIWE Academy with a 2200 hour Massage Therapy Diploma in 2020. I have been trained in hot stone massage, musculoskeletal injuries, manual lymphatic drainage, proprioceptive techniques, relaxation massage, therapeutic massage, Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, remedial exercise, range of motion assessment, joint mobilization, compressions, postural assessment, myotonic and neurotonic assessment.
I use massage therapy as a tool to reduce pain, relax tight muscles and promote healing. If you need to detox, I highly recommend a manual lymphatic drainage. If you have muscle tightness, ask me about stretching exercises. If you have muscle weakness, reduced range of motion or tingling or numbness or a limp, ask me about a myotonic and neurotonic assessment.
 In my spare time, I love to spend time with my family, reading and shopping. I truly enjoy working with such an amazing team at Serene Escapes.
