ABOUT ME
Jurga Ballilionyte
Born in Panevėžys, Lithuania, my life’s path has taken me across countries and cultures, continually deepening my understanding of people, movement, and the human body. I have an unwavering passion about helping people reconnect with their bodies, restore balance, and thrive in daily life.
My foundation began at the Lithuanian Sports University (2001–2004), where I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Sports and Tourism Management. Through the Socrates Erasmus program in Hamburg, Germany, and a Work & Travel experience in Alaska, I developed a broader, more holistic view of health, resilience, and intercultural connection. After university, I worked in the German fitness industry before founding and leading CGGC – Canadian Global Goaltending Camps for over a decade (2009–2022). There, I designed peak-performance programs for athletes, integrating physical training, movement mechanics, nutrition, and mental conditioning.
In 2020, a deep calling led me to Vienna, Austria, where I trained at the School for Manual Bodywork & Shiatsu under Stephan Hilpert. This transformative education bridged Western anatomy and physiology with Traditional Chinese Medicine, offering a comprehensive understanding of health, harmony, and the body as an interconnected system - which shaped my integrative approach today.
In my practice, I combine evidence-informed manual therapies with intuitive and energetic methods. Each session is personalized to your body’s needs—whether you’re seeking pain relief, better mobility, nervous system regulation, stress reduction, or deep relaxation. I draw from modalities such as Deep Tissue and Fascial Therapy, Myotherapy, Lymphatic Drainage, Shiatsu, Sweedish Massage, Thai Yoga Massage, Acupressure, Reflexology, Cupping, Taping, Meridian and Energy work including Reiki and Healing Touch.
I create a safe, calm space where your body can release tension, restore flow, and reconnect with its natural rhythm. Fluent in Lithuanian, German, English, and Russian, I warmly welcome clients from diverse backgrounds. I am an active member of the Academy of Naturopaths and Naturotherapists of Canada (ACNN) and my treatments are covered by most insurance companies as a Naturopath.
Outside of work, I’m a devoted mother to my son Norris and partner to Roland. I love nature, sports, philosophy, history, music, and the arts. Naturally curious and optimistic, I believe meaningful connection and lifelong learning are at the heart of a fulfilling life.
