Karin Lefsrud, RMT

Karin Lefsrud is a Registered Massage Therapist and graduate of the 2200-hour Massage Therapy program at Vicars School of Massage Therapy. She has been practicing in clinical and wellness settings since 2017 and is currently completing her Manual Osteopathic Practitioner Training, with anticipated completion in September 2026.

Karin integrates academic training in psychology and law with advanced manual therapy and somatic and integrative practices. Her work is informed by an understanding of how physical patterns, stress, and lived experience influence the body and overall wellbeing.

Her massage therapy sessions are individualized and treatment-focused, drawing from therapeutic massage, myofascial release (John F. Barnes’ Approach®), craniosacral therapy, cupping, Thai Yoga Massage, and osteopathic-informed manual techniques. She also incorporates breathwork in the lineage of David Elliott and Somatic Stress Release™ with Dr. Scott Lyons, supporting nervous system regulation and stress pattern release. Her approach is trauma-informed, with an emphasis on restoring ease, mobility, and resilience.

Karin is also certified in Spinal Flow® Technique, having completed her training in June 2023 with Dr. Carli Axford. She was also selected as part of the “Green Team” assisting in practitioner training in Honolulu, Hawaii in November 2023, and was the first practitioner in Northern Alberta certified in this modality.

Outside of clinical practice, Karin is a registered yoga teacher with extensive training in meditation, yoga nidra, Reiki, and gong sound healing, including monthly sound bath offerings.
