As a past nurse, I am passionate about helping others. I achieved my certification at the West Coast College of Massage Therapy & Hydrotherapy in Victoria, BC.
 

My therapeutic touch incorporates Swedish Massage, Deep tissue, Myofascial Release Techniques with different types of pressure but may also provide a gentle and relaxing treatment if preferred. I’m also well versed in pregnancy & paediatric massage.  As a 

lifelong learner with an innate curiosity about the mind-body connection, learning about the nervous system and its direct correlation to our pain perception was very insightful. As a result, I aim to calm the nervous system in every treatment to facilitate the balance needed for healing the body.

I am here to provide support to you, the patient, and it starts with a great experience. My hope is to create a warm and welcoming environment where you can feel comfortable enough to heal. I try to help by personalizing treatment plans - taking into account symptoms, medical history and anything else you might find important.

I look forward to furthering my knowledge and incorporating mindfulness into my practice to help you meet your wellness goals. I hope to provide you with some well-deserved relaxation, healing, and rejuvenation.

Hi, I’m Kath — though most people online know me as @yychomeopath. I’m a Master Herbalist, Clinical Homeopath, and intuitive healer blending plant medicine, energy work, and deep listening to help people feel like themselves again.

I come from a long line of healers — women who trusted their intuition, worked with plants, and believed deeply in the body’s ability to heal. That legacy shaped everything I do. What started as inherited wisdom grew into formal study, where I graduated with Honors from the Canadian College of Homeopathic Medicine and stepped fully into the world of classical homeopathy, herbal medicine, and whole‑person healing.

Today, I run an internationally recognized clinic, honored as Canada’s Homeopathic Clinic of the Year (2025 & 2026). I support patients both in person and online, blending homeopathy, botanical medicine, nourishment planning, cellular renewal therapy, and intuitive energy work to help people feel like themselves again — softly, naturally, and deeply.

Offerings:

• Biomedical migraine care

• Holistic nourishment plans

• Metabolic & inflammation testing (Canada only)

• Phytotherapy & Botanical medicine

• Cellular Detox & Rejuvenation therapy

• Lymphatic drainage / Ear candling (in person)

Calgary Massage & Osteopathy Healing is personal—not prescriptive.

At Nadine Flundra Massage and Osteopathy in Calgary, we provide more than pain relief. We create a space for deep reconnection with your body. Our care blends therapeutic massage, osteopathic principles, and intuitive presence to support your body’s natural ability to heal, adapt, and thrive.

Every session is grounded in respect for the body.

We believe no two bodies are alike. Nadine offers customized treatments that honor your unique physiology and lived experience. Whether you're recovering from injury, managing chronic tension, or seeking preventative care, the focus is always the same: sustainable, long-term well-being.

This is not a spa. This is hands-on therapy that works.

We don’t chase trends or offer quick fixes. Instead, we focus on what works—safe, effective, hands-on treatment rooted in both massage and osteopathic care. With a whole-person perspective, Nadine supports clients in building lasting balance and connection.

Come home to your body.

Every session invites you to slow down, tune in, and heal on your own terms—with skilled, supportive care in a safe and grounded space.
