Jaclyn “Jackie” Jacobs

Registered Massage Therapist
& Yoga Teacher

I’m Jackie, a Registered Massage Therapist and yoga teacher with more than five years of experience in both clinical and spa settings.

I graduated with honours from Vicars School of Massage Therapy in Calgary in 2021, earning my 2200-hour Remedial Massage Therapy diploma. In 2026, I completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training through Yoga Santosha.

Over the years, I’ve become increasingly curious about the relationship between therapeutic work and simply giving the body enough space and time to settle. I don’t believe every ache needs to be chased, every muscle needs to be “fixed,” or every massage needs to look the same.

Some days call for focused work. Some call for slowing down. Most land somewhere in between. I shape each treatment around how you arrive that day: what you’re experiencing, what you need, your preferences and boundaries, and how your body responds as we go.

I especially enjoy working with children and youth, and aim to make their experience with massage therapy one grounded in comfort, consent, and respect for their boundaries.

After several years practising in Calgary, I’m putting down new roots here in Brooks and creating KIN as a place for thoughtful, individualized care.
