I lived many years of my life with a constant pain and discomfort, it felt as though I was burden by a curse. My ailments stem from nightmares and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I had resigned myself to the belief that muscle aches, and at times intolerable headaches were an affliction of perpetude...but then I met Carissa.
Prior to my first session with Carissa of Okanagan Sage and Wellness, I possessed a weighted amount of trepidation and angst toward massage therapy — being placed in such a vulnerable position ignited waves of hypervigilance within me that made the prospect of massage via stranger an impossible proposition.
That said, on an arbitrary afternoon I reached out to Carissa, emailing her with an explanation of my station in life; she was kind, professional and her empathy was tangible even through written word. This is what led to my acquiescence and setting foot into a massage room — a task I once deemed impossible.

They have a sizable staff and all kinds of availability including evenings and weekends. They have a small waiting area that is kept clean and is nicely decorated. Also their bathroom is clean and tidy. They have ample free parking. Just watch sometimes the drive thru Starbucks line can get quite long and block your entrance/exit to their parking. Over all a great therapeutic...
Read moreSO HAPPY we found Wild Sage RMTs. My husband and I have both been seeing RMTs there for a few months now after a few years at another Vernon spa/clinic, and now know we've found the right place. I see Stephanie Mintz and am so happy with her! I have a few plaguing issues (hip, feet) that she has so skillfully helped me with to the point of almost disbelief that I feel as better as I do. She is meant to be a massage therapist and it shows in the results. The clinic is very conveniently located, is clean and welcoming, and the option of online booking is so easy and helpful, as is the direct billing to our health benefits provider. I highly recommend Wild Sage to anyone looking for a...
