Exceptional. Attentive. Meticulous. Accommodating. Healing. That's Laura Meikle. She has worked on me since 2004 and she has paid close attention to where the source was. She intuitively knew where to focus and patiently worked through my requests. I always leave feeling both energized and relaxed. Laura is soothing, calming, and a great human being that actually cares about people's well-being. I recommended everyone I know to her and can't praise her enough.

Hi Laura,
Just want to thank you for your healing hands today- my foot is going to be so much better for all your work. You have made my trip - I was kind of dreading it with my toe aching like a tooth ache.
Thanks K.C., Vernon, BC
I have used massage therapy for improving the circulation in my feet, healing whiplash from a car accident and general maintenance to reduce stress points in my body.
Before I began massage therapy, my feet were always cold . After several sessions at Body Vital Massage Therapy, they began to feel a normal temperature. After a car accident, a Doctor diagnosed my injury as whiplash. I chose massage therapy as one of the recommended treatments..
I use massage therapy on a monthly basis to reduce areas of tightness from the daily stresses of life. I feel great after a session. I highly recommend Laura Meikle for massage therapy because of the way it benefits me.

I had debilitating shoulder pain, going right down to my forearm and was misdiagnosed by a different therapist for a rotator cuff issue when Laura reassessed me and found a cervical disc herniation in my neck. My doctor’s CT scan confirmed her assessment. Laura gave me homecare and changes in my daily living which helped me heal and I have thankfully never had a return of pain. Then I broke my shoulder and had Laura work on me again. My shoulder was stiff and my mobility was very limited and painful. Laura did rehab massage on me, stopping the spasm in the muscles and returning the circulation, and although the treatment was painful, it did a world of wonders. My mobility immediately afterward was a remarkable change with way more movement that was pain-free. I could not believe the difference. It was a huge help and enabled me to start using my arm in normal ranges of motion again. I am so thankful for the fantastic work she has done for me.

I have been receiving therapy from Laura for over a year now and have experienced a real difference in the frequency of headaches I get and a marked improvement in general shoulder and neck movement. Laura focuses on overall wellness. She does not have me rely solely on regular massage appointments for my wellness however; she provides guidance for exercises to strengthen one’s body and to maintain the benefits of her treatments.
Additionally, Laura’s Cranial Sacral Therapy has benefited me in reducing levels of tension in my body and providing deep levels of relaxation.

Skeptic-turn-believer:
Laura turned me into a believer in the benefits of massage therapy. As a dedicated runner and occasional triathlete, I had tried massage as a way to loosen up tight muscles and because I had heard it was good for muscle health, but couldn’t really tell if it was making any difference. Then one time I was plagued by a chronically sore Achilles tendon so went to visit Laura. After only one or two treatments, I was surprised to find that I was pain-free. If you’re looking for a skilled massage therapist who is personable and knowledgeable, and who won’t scold you for not doing the stretches she suggested, give Laura Meikle a try.

I have found Laura Meikle to be a phenomenal massage therapist. When I go to her with my aches and pains she instictively knows where to massage to alleviate anything that might be hurting. I rely on her expertise and will not go to anyone else. Thank you Laura!!!

Laura, thank you seems really inadequate to someone who has done a huge amount of extra research to get rid of those awful migraines all while making me smile and laugh as well as helping me on my journey to balance and healing in the gentle way you have. You are an amazing person whom I'm blessed to know and learn from so as inadequate as it is, thank you.
