Rooted Tree Massage & Yoga
Due to the state of emergency declared by the Yukon Government, Rooted Tree will now be requiring Proof of Vaccination before each appointment.
Effective immediately, clients must be prepared to show their Vaccine Passport when arriving for their appointment. If proof of vaccination is not provided, the appointment will be cancelled.
Thank you so much for your consideration and kindness as we navigate this challenging time.
Rooted Tree started as the quiet massage practice of Sheila MacLean in 2013. Now rooted at 407 Black Street, this small operation is branching out.
We are a collective of business owners, each of us practicing in the way that is the truest expression of ourselves. We currently offer Massage Therapy, Acupuncture, Aromatherapy Bodywork, and Yoga (online classes and private sessions).

Sheila MacLean
Owner, Registered Massage Therapist, Yoga Guide, Aromatherapist
Massage and yoga have been powerful methods for growth and connection in my life, I very sincerely love what I do, and would love the opportunity to share it with you.
Massage has been a great passion of mine since I stumbled into the practice headfirst in 2009. I knew it checked the boxes: Something in to encourage and bolster others, that kept me moving, something that let me be creative.
Sharing yoga was the missing puzzle piece: bringing strength and stability (and therefore longevity) to those I was seeing in my massage practice. My yoga classes, private and public, are not the fancy, twisty postures you might see in magazines, but a method of self-inquiry and thoughtful movement aimed at awakening individuals to their own possibilities.
In massage I offer:
Swedish, Deep Tissue, Indian Head Massage, Joint Release, Deep Flow, Shiatsu, Thai, Reflexology, Hot Stone, Hydrotherapy, Prenatal Massage, Myofascial Cupping, and Aromatherapy.
In yoga: Hatha, Stråla, Movement Therapy, Restorative, Anusara, Acroyoga, Kundalini.
