Lori Faulkner – Shiatsu Therapist
Growing up in Ontario, Lori grew to love bodywork before she was aware it could become a career. Drawn to the mountains, Lori moved west in 1993. She settled right in to the organic lifestyle BC has to offer.
Tree planting and landscaping for a couple years led to traveling through Central America, Asia and India, where she came into a spiritual journey that has influenced her life in many ways.
Discovering Shiatsu upon returning to Whistler in 1997 led her to studying to become a certified Shiatsu practitioner, graduating from the Canadian Accupressure Institute in 1998. Through studying shiatsu, Lori realized an interest in womens health through the reproductive years which lead to her becoming a birth and postpartum Doula. She has also studied deep tissue, myofacial and sports massage techniques, as well as Ayurvedic massage.
Lori has been practicing in Whistler in the spa industry since 1999, and is excited to work in the place she calls home. When she’s not massaging, she’s with her 3 kids, biking, x-country skiing, doing yoga and making yummy food.
