Rebekah comes from a low income family from Southern Alberta which taught her to be a hard worker, that much can be done with belief, the value of education and giving your best effort. Rebekah always had compassion and kindness for all creatures around her. She could pick up on others needs and would use intuitive touch to help those around her to relax and rehabilitate even as a child. Her first memory of giving a massage is what she now knows is reflexology on her mother feet at the age of 4. Rebekah was popular with sport teams massage exchanges in volleyball and basketball, with teammates lining up to have her work on them. She also rehabilitated animals on her Aunt ranch that were thought to be beyond help, and these animals went on to be extremely healthy as well as productive.

As a young girl, Rebekah first wanted to drift to California to learn to surf but with encouragement from her mother was accepted into Alberta College of Art and Design. After 2.5 there she decided to change paths to the art of healing.
