Madeleine Chevrier

Madeleine Chevrier is a Trame Vibrational therapist, Reiki Master Healer and teacher, Certified Muscle Activation Specialist, Qi Gong practitioner with over 20 years of industry experience in healing, coaching and rehabilitation.

Madeleine has always had a passion for healing. Finding the missing pieces to heal physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually have been a source of lifelong learning for her. There are people needlessly suffering when there are holistic solutions available that greatly clear out stress, trauma and pain. Madeleine’s strength is to help others feel seen, heard and understood while keeping it light. Education, healing and empowerment are the three pillars she centers her practice around.

When Madeleine went through a trauma twelve years ago, she was in a state of perpetual fight or flight and felt stuck in almost every way. She contemplated leaving this field, which is her passion and going on anxiety medication until she found Trame and qigong. See full story here.

She uses all that she’s learned to help you shed any layers of stress, pain and trauma that you no longer wish to carry with you in a non-judgemental and safe space.

Trame Vibrational Therapy
I don’t think one realizes the help one needs until a few doors are open; both spiritually and mentally. In 6 sessions with her, I’ve already become a much calmer person on the inside with the acceptance of things I didn’t realize I have been fighting. I’m excited to see and feel the benefits that I have already tapped into with the help of Madeleine. She’s no doubt a powerful, calming, healing, safe zone that I have been missing in my life!

Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT)
I came to see Madeleine for mild to moderate arthritis in my hip and to try to avoid a hip replacement. A year later I went back to my orthopedic surgeon, who informed me that the arthritis was actually worse but that my function was better and to keep doing what I was doing.

Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT)
I had trouble going even for short walks and I felt like I had to kick my left leg out in front of me so my daughter recommended me to Madeleine. After four treatments I walked 3 km and for the first time in 11 months I felt pretty comfortable. After a subsequent session I was walking 5 km comfortably and didn’t feel like I had to kick my leg out but like it was doing it on its own. MAT treatments, the gym exercises recommended as well as the corrective exercises all combined to get me here.

Qi Gong & Reiki
... I tried many different methods for pain relief such as physio therapy, exercise plans, medications etc. Nothing gave me the long term relief I was hoping for. When I received an energy healing from Madeleine the results were outstanding. Not only did I start to feel better but it opened doors to new ways to look at pain relief ...
