Does this sound like you?
Your tightness won't seem to go away
Are you fed up with the constant stiffness in your lower back, the nagging soreness in your hips, and the persistent tightness in your neck? You've tried different stretching techniques, but they only offer temporary relief, leaving you to wake up the next morning with the same frustrating tightness.
You can't seem to stick to a routine
You want to be more active, but it's difficult to stay consistent with workouts when you feel sore for so long afterwards. Plus, the existing tightness in your body makes it hard to move freely and perform at your best. And if you're dealing with an old injury, the last thing you want is to accidentally aggravate it while working out.
The stress of your job gets to you
Your job demands a fast-paced, high-stress lifestyle that leaves you mentally and emotionally drained. The pressure you face on a daily basis puts you at a higher risk for burnout, anxiety, and stress-related disorders. Balancing the demands of work and home life can feel overwhelming, leaving you with little time to relax and recharge. It's a struggle to find the rest you truly deserve.

"My overall mental health was improving as my sessions with Victoria left me feeling more capable and emotionally lighter. My mood changed, my sleep improved, and more importantly my level of concentration and productivity improved at work due to the lack of pain and achiness I was so used to feeling before.
As I primarily work at a computer all day, minor aches and pain were constant annoyances and distracting. Since starting to work with Victoria, these are more manageable and, in many cases, non-existent. Thank you, Victoria, for the amazing work you are doing. You have truly helped me overcome and understand that I no longer need to live with the discomfort and pain I was so used to dealing with. Your level of expertise and dedication plays a huge role in my overall well-being, and I am very grateful."

"I feel like a different person after my sessions with Victoria! Victoria is confident and well educated when it comes to why and how the body moves.
I would say I’m a fairly physical person not only in my career as a firefighter, but also playing recreational sports on a daily basis, and F3 has helped me and my body significantly.
For a number of days following my treatment with Victoria I tend to have better flexibility, and I feel a lot lighter. Victoria has shown me different stretching techniques that take little time and can be accomplished on a daily basis to maintain my flexibility between treatments. F3 has helped me live a better everyday life overall."

"I came to Victoria with an injury I had not addressed for 15 + years. This injury caused several muscle imbalances which lead to stiffness, discomfort, and repeat injuries. After training mixed martial arts, lifting weights, and stretching for hours with no improvements in my mobility, I looked into F3. After my very first session, not only did I feel completely grounded, I had the best night sleep in months.
I felt a significant decrease in mental and physical tension. Hard training sessions have become more manageable and old injuries are finally healing.
I highly recommend visiting Victoria, especially if you are looking to increase your performance in sport. It really works!"
-- Yannick R.
"I have been working with Victoria for a number of years through physio, massage, and most recently F3. Since being introduced to F3, I’ve noticed it has had a profound effect on my both physical and mental health. First, as someone who sits at a desk all day, I’m constantly tight, particularly in my hips. My stiffness and mobility have improved dramatically which is supported by my increased range of motion in various stretches and exercises. As someone who exercises daily and is extremely active, F3 allows me to maintain the high level of training I put my body through. F3 treatment is the perfect way to keep your body loose and ready for action.
As a result of all that, it’s made me feel way better mentally just knowing that I am able to perform in my training to the highest degree. After leaving a session you feel extremely light and clear, comparable to the same feeling after meditation. She’s great at what she does and has an excellent way of putting everything into layman’s terms so you know exactly what is happening with your body. She takes pride in her work and it shows!"
-- Jesse G.
“I’ve been doing fascial stretch therapy with Victoria for over a year. Her treatments have substantially improved by hip and glute mobility and reduced my back pain.
I always walk out of an appointment feeling amazing! Victoria had been my RMT for over two years when she finished her F3 program and mentioned to me that I may find it beneficial.
She has a strong understanding of what stresses first responders face and how they can get stored in the body. If you’re looking to reduce pain and stress, go see Victoria!”
-- Rob D.
"F3 sessions with Victoria are amazing! She provides a warm and welcoming environment and does a very thorough assessment before starting any session.
I have an old injury which causes great tightness and stiffness in my body. Doing F3 has improved my flexibility and reduced my stiffness, which not only brings physical relief but also aids me in my daily workouts.
The flexibility I gain improves my posture, muscle coordination and any soreness I felt when I walked into my appointment. It improves my strength and my physical performance. Releasing that tension immediately relaxes me. I sleep better and feel more grounded and lighter.
I highly recommend you try a session, especially if you suffer from any tightness, stiffness or soreness. It will bring you back to an awareness of your own body and provide much needed relief."

Everything is done virtually through Zoom - No need to leave the comfort of your home! For the assessment part of the session, we discuss your health history and go through a series of movement and postural assessments to see how you're moving and where any restrictions or limitations may lie. The treatment itself depends on your personal goals, problems, and health history. I tailor each experience to the individual, but a typical session can include fascial stretching, mobility work, and strengthening exercises.
Fascia is a type of connective tissue that runs throughout your entire body, surrounding and supporting your muscles, bones, and organs. It acts like a kind of "body stocking" that helps to hold everything in place and allows your body to move smoothly and efficiently. Fascia is also important for transmitting and distributing forces throughout the body during movement, and it plays a key role in regulating blood flow and inflammation. When the fascia becomes tight or restricted, it can lead to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. By working with the fascia through techniques like fascial stretch therapy, it's possible to improve your overall physical function and reduce pain and discomfort.
The F3 program uses different techniques that target the fascia to improve movement, reduce pain, and increase flexibility. This can help reduce physical symptoms of stress and promote relaxation. The program also aims to activate the body's calming response, counteracting the "fight or flight" response associated with stress and anxiety, and promoting feelings of calm and wellbeing.
The short answer is - it depends! The level of discomfort you may feel during our sessions depends on your body's mobility and tolerance for stretching and mobility work. However, we use specific breathing techniques to help calm your nervous system and make it easier for you to get into deeper stretches. Rest assured that each session is tailored to your body's unique needs and movements, and if any issues arise during the movements, I will provide you with modifications so that you can confidently and comfortably perform each exercise.
If you're tired of dealing with any of these problems, I can help.
