Sylvie Lappa

Registered Massage Therapist

Since graduating from the Foothills College of Massage Therapy in 2005, Sylvie has built a strong foundation as a therapeutic massage therapist, working with established clinics including Lifemark Springborough Physio, Bragg Creek Physio, and Momentum Health West Springs.

Sylvie brings both experience and a thoughtful, assessment-based approach to her practice. Her work focuses on identifying the root causes of discomfort and developing personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs. She regularly treats a wide range of conditions, from sports injuries and motor vehicle accident (MVA) recovery to supporting prenatal clients seeking relief from back and postural discomfort.

She is a member in good standing with the Natural Health Practitioners of Canada and provides insurance receipts for her treatments.

As a treatment-focused therapist, Sylvie primarily uses Swedish massage techniques to reduce muscular restrictions and improve circulation. Depending on the individual case, her treatments may also incorporate cupping, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, hydrotherapy, manual lymphatic drainage, and joint mobilization to support deeper healing.

By combining clinical knowledge with a patient-centered approach—and always respecting contraindications—Sylvie helps clients recover from injury, improve mobility and flexibility, reduce pain, and enhance overall quality of life.

Sylvie is pleased to be offering massage therapy services at Sunshine Physio in Cochrane, where she looks forward to supporting the health and well-being of the local community.
