Lauren McLaughlin (she/her)

Registered Massage Therapist

Born and raised in Fredericton, Lauren studied massage therapy in Toronto at the Sutherland-Chan School and Teaching Clinic. After graduating in 2016 having an interest in bodywork and the mind, body, spirit, connection, she went on to study Craniosacral Therapy in New Hampshire. This has led Lauren to focus on bodywork through the lens of nervous system regulation.

Lauren’s approach involves a blend of myofascial release, swedish massage techniques, active release, and craniosacral therapy. She believes that massage therapy is extremely beneficial for managing symptoms associated with both physical and mental ailments. Her passion for bodywork and general well-being are translated through her therapeutic touch and genuine demeanor.

Lauren has a keen interest in research and is passionate about empowering her clients through education. She is constantly studying the latest models and science behind massage therapy. She is aware of the complexity of biopsychosocial factors contribute to our overall wellbeing.
