About

Joanne Miethke, RMT

After graduating from York University with a Kinesiology Degree Joanne enrolled in the Massage Therapy program at one of Toronto's founding massage schools, Sutherland-Chan.  Graduating in 1998, she completed her board exams and registered with the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario in the fall of 1998. In the spring of 1999, she opened the doors to her practice.

For the past 25 plus years, Joanne has dedicated herself to improving the overall health and well-being of her patients.  Every patient has their own unique set of treatment requirements and part of her success over the years stems from ensuring that each one of her patients receives the very best care, individually customized to them.

Deep tissue Therapeutic Massage is the main discipline Joanne practices.   The treatment of soft tissue damage, muscle aches and pains, stress and injuries is the primary focus with relaxation as an ancillary benefit.

In addition to massage, Joanne is certified to deliver Low Intensity Laser Light Therapy.  This Laser Therapy is not the cosmetic kind, but rather a therapeutic treatment which works to restore normal cell structure and function after being traumatized or damaged through injury or disease.  While Joanne has offered Laser Therapy to patients in the past who suffer from soft tissue damage, arthritis, muscle or ligament injuries and several other conditions, she does not currently offer this service. If you have questions about whether laser can work for you be sure to ask Joanne.

Joanne is qualified and certified to deliver the following treatments:

• Swedish/Relaxation Massage

• Deep Tissue Therapeutic Massage

• Low Intensity Light Laser Therapy

• Lymphatic Drainage Massage

• Trigger Point Therapy

• Prenatal Massage

• Bamboo Massage

• Thai Massage

These services are delivered at her home clinic in Ajax, within the Chiropractic Centre on Bayly St. in Pickering,  as well as via select house calls.  

On a personal note, Joanne shares her life with Pierre Habib, her husband of more than 25 years.  Pierre is a Professional Realtor with Sutton Group-Heritage Realty Inc.  Both Joanne and Pierre have spent their entire lives in the Toronto area and have happily resided in the Durham Region for almost three decades.  In her down time, Joanne enjoys exercising, sailing, travelling and spending time with her dogs, her friends and her family.
