Welcome, I’m Mardon Dary, owner of Pura Vida Massage Therapy. It is my JOY supporting people in health and wellbeing!

With over 27 years working in the massage therapy field, I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse clientele and a natural gift in helping people feel safe and comfortable.

Each client is unique and so are my treatments. I start each session with an assessment, actively listening to my clients’ needs to help achieve their goals for treatment.

As a trauma informed practitioner, I understand the importance of consent and boundaries and creating a safe and nurturing environment for healing and relaxation.

My patient centred approach combines various modalities including Myofascial release, Deep tissue, Trigger point therapy, Sports massage, Relaxation , Cranial and TRE® – Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises.

As a lifelong learner, I am committed to advancing personal and professional development to improve my ability to support my clients in wellness. I enjoy networking with other health practitioners and believe in a team approach to health care.

Whether you are seeking relief from pain, stress related tension, relaxation, or support on your healing journey, I am honoured to be of assistance on your path to optimal wellbeing.

Outside of my practice I enjoy hanging with my family and friends, nature, cold dipping, hiking, running and adventuring out to the west coast waves.

Joanna has a love for anatomy and satisfying specific treatment of muscle tissue, fascia, visceral fascia, and ligaments, and also has deep appreciation for the greater somatic experience. She’s curious to explore the benefits of working with the nervous system and treating the body as an integrated system, rather than as separate parts in isolation. She aims to hold a warm and safe therapeutic space for slowing down and listening to your body.

Joanna approaches treatment as a collaboration, guided by your needs, which may include rehabilitation, maintenance, symptomatic relief, and relaxation. She enjoys introducing your body to novel ways of holding itself using massage and movement, with the aim of relieving pain, finding balance, and reconnecting with self. In your session you can expect history taking, relevant assessment, and homecare recommendations as needed/desired.

In her practice, Joanna integrates myofascial release, Swedish massage, trigger point release, neuromuscular technique, joint mobilization, deep tissue massage, and active muscle release or assisted stretch techniques. She has experience working with chronic stress-related tension and pain, overuse or sports injury, central and peripheral nerve dysfunction, joint dysfunction, and headaches. She’s seeking to advance her practice in abdominal and visceral massage, rotator cuff injuries, nerve compression pain and patterns, and TMJ dysfunction and welcomes clients with these needs.
