Welcome to Yutori Collective - Wellness with Heart

At Yutori Collective, wellness is more than self-care, it’s an invitation to create space in your life. The word “Yutori” is a Japanese concept meaning grace, spaciousness, and emotional ease. It reflects a way of being that allows room to breathe, to feel, and to move through life with presence and compassion. This philosophy lives at the heart of everything we do. Our treatments are designed not only to support your body, but to nurture the mind and spirit. Restoring balance through mindful touch, skilled technique, and genuine connection. To us, “Wellness with Heart” means leading with empathy, integrity, and respect, creating a space where every person feels valued, safe, and supported. We believe healing happens most naturally when you are met with care and kindness.


Our clinic spans two floors, each offering a distinct experience. The main floor is our therapeutic level, dedicated to Chiropractic, health-based care and massage. The second floor, hosts massage and our wellness area for selfcare and relaxation.

Hello ! My name is Myriam.

I started massage therapy in 2022 and completed my 2200 hours at the wonderful Vicars School of Massage Therapy here in Edmonton.

I’ve always had a desire to work in an industry where I could be of service to others and Massage Therapy allows me to do just that! I love having the opportunity to help you alleviate pain and tension from a myriad of issues such as chronic conditions, posture dysfunctions, injuries, headaches or helping you relax after a stressful week!

My personal style and specialties include relaxation, Swedish massage, therapeutic work, trigger point release. From light to medium deep pressure, I adjust to your personal preference and work with you to make sure each massage is what YOU want and need. I am always open for suggestions and feedback to grow as a therapist and to help you achieve your goals!

Outside of work, I always make time to be artistic whether it be through painting, drawing, embroidery. If it’s artistic there’s a good chance I enjoy it! I love spending time outdoors and camping just as much as staying in and sitting all cozy with a good book and a nice hot chocolate. Most of all, I love spending time with my goofy Bernese mountain dog!

I can’t wait to share my love for massage therapy with you and to have the opportunity to be a helping hand in your wellness journey. See you soon!

Meet TamaraPassionate About Healing & Growth in Massage Therapy

At Yutori, we believe that every wellness journey starts with care, intention, and a dedication to healing. As a newly graduated Massage Therapist, I bring enthusiasm, compassion, and a strong foundation in anatomy and therapeutic techniques to every session.

I graduated from MacEwan University in June 2024, after spending two years deeply immersed in anatomy, physiology, and specialized massage techniques. Now, as I step into my career, I am eager to expand my skills, refine my techniques, and help my clients experience the true benefits of massage therapy.


A Passion for Restorative & Comforting Treatments

Massage therapy is about more than just working on muscles, it’s about creating a space where clients can truly relax, release tension, and feel cared for.


I specialize in:

  • Relaxation & Therapeutic Massage – Providing comfort and deep relief.

  • Pain Management & Deep Tissue Therapy – Targeting areas of chronic tension.

  • Holistic Wellness & Aromatherapy (in progress) – Enhancing relaxation through scent and touch.

  • Future Certifications in Reflexology & Pediatric Massage – Expanding my ability to serve diverse client needs.

I tailor every session to the individual, ensuring that each treatment is as unique as the person receiving it. My goal is to help restore balance, relieve tension, and encourage the body’s natural ability to heal.


Growing Within Yutori’s Vision

At Yutori, we value learning, collaboration, and providing the highest level of care to every client. As I grow in my career, I embrace our core values by:

Creating a peaceful and supportive environment where every client feels heard and valued.

Prioritizing ongoing education to ensure that I bring new, effective techniques to my clients.

Encouraging a holistic approach to wellness, recognizing that healing is not just physical, but also emotional and mental.


Outside the Clinic

When I’m not practicing massage therapy, I love spending time outdoors, walking my dog along the river valley, and enjoying moments with family and friends. Staying connected to nature and loved ones helps me bring a sense of calm, balance, and warmth into my treatments.

Looking Forward to Your Wellness Journey

I look forward to helping you find relaxation, pain relief, and an overall sense of well-being. Whether you’re looking for therapeutic care, deep tissue work, or a moment of relaxation, I am here to support your journey to feeling your best!

Hello everyone!

My name is Maria, and I’m a Registered Massage Therapist with a genuine passion for the human body, movement, and the healing power of therapeutic touch. What first drew me into massage therapy was my curiosity about anatomy and how the body works—but what truly sealed my path was experiencing firsthand how transformative massage can be for both physical and mental well-being. That moment lit a fire in me to help others feel at home in their bodies.

My Approach to Massage Therapy

Every person I meet has their own story—different lifestyles, different challenges, different goals. Whether you’re an athlete, a busy parent, someone recovering from injury, or simply looking to relax, my mission is the same: to help you move better, feel better, and live better.

My treatments focus on:

  • Reducing muscle tension
  • Improving mobility and range of motion
  • Supporting recovery
  • Creating moments of deep relaxation
  • Helping clients feel lighter, calmer, and more aligned

I strive to make every session meaningful and tailored to exactly what your body needs that day. My goal is for you to leave feeling more connected to yourself—physically, mentally, and emotionally.

My Background

I completed the 3000-hour Advanced Massage Therapy Program at Makami College in Edmonton, where I built a strong foundation in therapeutic techniques, rehabilitation, and holistic healing. My training and experience allow me to work confidently with clients of all ages and activity levels.

I’m truly grateful to be doing what I love every day. I look forward to supporting you on your journey—whether that means easing daily stress, improving movement, recovering from injury, or helping you care for your long-term health.

Your wellness matters, and I’m here to help you every step of the way.

I have always believed in the power of human connection, dedication, and the body’s natural ability to heal when given the right care. My journey into massage therapy began when I moved to Alberta in 2013, and from the very beginning, I knew this path was more than a profession, it marked the beginning of a new passion and a clear path to give back with purpose.

My practice is rooted in an integrative and holistic approach, guided by evidence-based care and a strong foundation in wellness. I combine a blend of therapeutic techniques and specialized tools to support each client in a way that is thoughtful, personalized, and effective.

Every treatment is adapted to your goals, your level of comfort, and what your body truly needs, recognizing that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to care. For me, massage therapy is not only about relieving pain or tension, it is about caring for the whole person: physically, mentally, and emotionally. I take the time to listen, assess, and understand your individual needs, ensuring that each session is meaningful, focused, and aligned with your wellness journey.

I am committed to continuous education and maintaining high professional standards, embracing a mindset of lifelong learning in my practice. With over a decade of experience and many hours of advanced clinical training, I integrate therapeutic, trauma-informed, and evidence-based approaches into my work. This allows me to provide treatments that are not only effective for pain and recovery, but also supportive of your overall well-being ensuring care that is thoughtful, informed, and tailored to you.

I also work closely with other professionals within the clinic and stay connected with a trusted network of practitioners in our broader community, ensuring you have access to well-rounded support whenever needed.

Beyond the treatment room, I stay actively involved in community initiatives and support local sport teams and events. As someone who came to Canada as a refugee, I carry a deep sense of gratitude for the opportunities my family and I have been given. It is truly important for me to give back through my work and to be an active, supportive, and positive member of the community that has welcomed us. While I understand the challenges life can bring, I believe deeply in perseverance, hard work, and the ability to keep moving forward toward our dreams.

Outside of my work, my greatest joy is spending time with my children (3 crazy but perfect teenagers!), my family and our doggy, Nala. I love traveling and exploring the world, I am deeply proud of my Colombian roots which continue to shape who I am and the way I connect with others, and yes, I Love Coffee or a good Chai Latte!

My goal is simple: to provide care that is honest, thoughtful, and effective, so you can feel supported, move better, and reconnect with your body in a meaningful way.

I’m looking forward to work with you and be part of your Wellness team!

I am fascinated by how massage therapy enhances the body’s natural ability to restore balance, reduce tension, and promote overall well-being.

To me, massage is more than just a treatment, it is a partnership. Every session is a collaboration between you and me, built on trust, open communication, and a shared goal: to help you feel your best. Your body has a unique story, and I am here to listen, support, and adapt each session to your specific needs.

My approach is gentle, intuitive, and holistic, combining advanced techniques with a deep respect for the whole person. I integrate therapeutic touch, movement, and relaxation techniques to ensure that you leave not only feeling better but also more connected to your own well-being.
