About Shelley Schroeder Pediatric RMT
Offering Youth, Teen, Kids, and Baby Massage in Ottawa
I have been a Massage Therapist since 2001. I am also the parent of a child on the autism spectrum, so I can relate to exceptional children and their parents because we have lived some common experiences.
I adore working with children, I am always admiring how their minds work. One of my goals when I was going through massage therapy school was to make massage therapy more accessible to children, and I am amazed to say that I am doing exactly that!
My goal now is to provide my patients with a space where they can be comfortable and receive the best treatment possible. In 2024 I made the decision to no longer take on adult patients, this has given me the ability to focus exclusively on issues that present more frequently with kids.When I am not doing the best job ever, I like to spend my time sewing or paddleboarding and spending time with my son and husband on our acreage outside of the city.
