Lauren Jeannette RMT

swipe for some small updates 👉

As of August 1st, 2026, I will be flattening my rates across modalities
What does that mean? I’ll be charging you by time, not my treatment
So it won’t be $5 more for Ashiatsu, Cupping, Bamboo or Indie Head Massage
Yes, you still need to differentiate when you book online, so I set up appropriately and don’t cut into your treatment time

Be aware when you book: not all RMTs at Shanti Wellness Studio will be priced the same way
(Lauren) will be listed at the end of each treatment offered by me

I will no longer be offering prenatal massage with a bolster, only side lying
No more 1:1 yoga or rehabilitative movement
Gua Sha, Acupressure and Cupping facials will not be individual treatments
The good news? You can add the facials to any of your every day therapeutic massages!
IASTM & ear seeds are still available as add ons to treatments, at no extra cost
I’m really leaning into massage, & the methods I enjoy offering

My hours are all pretty & framed on the wall!
life comes at you fast, & my schedule has been adapting to the added member in my household
These hours will be updated seasonally, but since we’re already halfway through summer - I’m starting with AUGUST

some things that haven’t changed:
🌊 I only work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday
🌊 No Wednesdays, no weekends, no exceptions
🌊 during the school season (September - June), there will always be a gap from 2:30pm - 4pm
🌊 Online booking will be available 6 weeks at a time, but I have my calendar planned out a year in advance
🌊 You can book ahead, if you contact me directly
🌊 Cancellation fees have not changed: cancel for yourself online, 24 hours prior to your appointment
🌊 Within 24 hours? 50% fee, No Show, or No Contact? 100% fee equivalent to the cost of the appointment
🌊 Cancellations cannot be billed to insurance
🌊 Best way to contact me for booking, cancellations or rescheduling? TEXT my work phone directly, I typically get back to you within one business day
🌊 I always book off the last two weeks of December to recharge (winter is busy!)

I’m still taking on new patients, feel free to share the post & send someone my way that needs a massage 😉

“but why don’t you ever shut up about the q***r thing?”

because someone thinks it’s better to be dead, than transparent
because it’s unsafe to cross certain borders, or show affection in public
because I’ve seen families reject people, who are just trying to find their way
because love, community and acceptance are beautiful things
because people should be able to go to the bathroom in peace
because we are MORE than chromosomes
can’t we just belong?
because public and catholic school education is limited
because I’ve witnessed individuals tease, ignored and harassed for the clothing on their body
(its just fabric)
because hair, makeup, adornments, perfumes, and tone of voice should be allowed to be artistic expression
because genitalia is none of my business
because it’s personal
because we’re all doing the best that we can, to get by

pride matters, trans lives matter
if you disagree, you can see yourself out

I’ve been fortunate to have close friends, coworkers, community & family to step in and offer support in times of struggle

: posts asks to support at risk individuals in our City,
: provides resources across the province for trans & q***r individuals
: rescues dogs internationally, through foster based care

my mother passed in September 2025, we had the same birthday, on her 38th birthday I showed up right on time 💁🏻‍♀️ & as she never failed to remind me: the nurses brought her a chocolate cupcake with a candle
my parents always made a point to support local

my practice is q***r inclusive, asks for you pronouns in the intake form, and we respect them, no questions asked
people deserve to feel seen, & appreciated, as they are

In December 2018, we saw a post from a foster to adopt program, featuring our senior dog Luna - she had been attacked in Greece, recovered, only to discover she had severe heartworm disease
with donations, and treatments, she again recovered, with only a few side effects (blindness)

I know there’s fancy donate buttons I could post in stories, but lets me honest Facebook & Instagram don’t need more engagement
the fact of the matter is these are three organizations put in the work & spread the love, they would grind to a halt without community
for these groups: every dollar counts

but sometimes, funds are tight
that’s okay!
go to their pages, interact with their communities, boost their posts, donate your time or attend to events

if your funds are free flowing: I will give a gift certificate for a 30 min therapeutic massage, for every $50 donated
(gift certificates have no cash value & cannot be reimbursed through insurance, proof of donation required)

It’s almost my birthday guys 🎂
can you help me spread some love? 🥰
