About
As̄ka Siedlecka
Twenty years of caring for bodies, and the people living in them.

Gift of Touch Massage · Coquitlam, BC
As̄ka didn't begin in massage. She trained first in wellness and mental health — in how stress, sleep, the body and the heart all move together, and why caring for one without the others rarely lasts.
What kept calling her was hands-on care. A worry that starts somewhere in a person's life ends up in their shoulders; a back that won't settle is rarely only a back. She followed the body, and brought the whole of her training with her.
So a session with As̄ka starts with you — what your days look like, what hurts, what you've already tried — and the work grows from there rather than from a script. Twenty years in, she still works the body and listens to the whole person, with a big heart and a gentle, positive spirit.
Gift of Touch Massage lives in her home studio in Coquitlam, just behind Coquitlam Centre — and travels, table and linens and all, to homes across Metro Vancouver.
