  • "I recently got to experience my first and certainly not my last Aqua-vie Massage with the very talented Karen Perro.I loved having the opportunity to be able to do it outdoors in the Black Avon Falls, a perfect backdrop. I felt weightless, and my body and mind were at complete ease. If you have the opportunity to make an appointment please do as you won’t regret it ❤️

    —P. P AquaVie, Natural Settings

  • I was the first person to try this out in a nature setting, we had the whole place to ourselves, and it was so calming! So lovely to be in nature with the running water & listening to the birds. I am honoured to be chosen today to do this. "Thank you so much, I came home and literally had a two hour nap 😴 in my hammock. My body feels great and it relaxed my mind! I highly recommend."

What is AquaVie Massage?

Inspired by the spiralling nature of life, AquaVie Massage uses precise, rhythmic, wave-like techniques that move through the body in gentle spiral patterns, we work with pressure points, stretching, muscles, joint mobility and the nervous system by helping to release tension and restore natural flow.

Guided by Karen Perro, RMT, this integrated approach supports alignment, enhances mobility, and promotes deep, full-body relaxation.

Sessions are performed in warm water to deepen relaxation and allow the body to move more freely. Treatments are offered in collaboration with Nepsis Floatation within their open float tank, as well as in private pools and natural settings such as lakes and St. Georges Bay during the warmth of late summer.
