Ernie Bird

Registered Canadian Reflexology Therapist (RCRT)

Discover the Power of Reflexology

Reflexology is more than a therapy—it’s a natural, holistic approach to restoring balance and well-being. This gentle, non-invasive practice is based on the principle that specific reflex points in your feet, hands, face, and ears correspond to different organs and systems in the body.

By stimulating these points, we activate nerve pathways that help your body:
✔ Release tension and stress
✔ Boost circulation for better vitality
✔ Support your body’s natural healing process
✔ Improve sleep quality
✔ Encourage deep relaxation and inner calm

About Ernie

Raised on a family farm in Aldersyde, Alberta, Ernie Bird spent 35 years as a licensed Heavy-Duty Mechanic, driven by a lifelong passion for motorcycles. In August 2022, a life-changing accident led to a challenging recovery, marked by persistent foot and leg issues despite extensive physiotherapy and mental health support.

Searching for new solutions, Ernie discovered reflexology—a therapy that quickly delivered positive results and ignited a deep curiosity. This transformative experience inspired a career change, leading to certifications in Core, Foot, and Hand Reflexology from respected Calgary institutions. Today, as a Registered Canadian Reflexology Therapist (RCRT), Ernie is dedicated to helping others experience the same healing benefits that changed their life.

Education

Ernie enrolled in training and earned his Core and Foot Reflexology certification from the Quanta School of Reflexology in Calgary in September 2024. In October 2025, he completed Hand Reflexology certification through Vitareflex School, also in Calgary. During this journey, he became a Registered Canadian Reflexology Therapist (RCRT).

Today, he is proud to help others as a Registered Reflexology Therapist—sharing the same healing benefits that transformed his life.

Specialties / Special Focus

Ernie offers personalized reflexology treatments designed to help clients relax, rebalance, and feel their best. Each session is tailored to individual needs, using gentle pressure on reflex points to support the body’s natural healing process.

  • Foot Reflexology:

The feet carry each person through life and hold a detailed map of the body. Ernie Bird uses foot reflexology to stimulate these points, improving circulation, reducing tension, and promoting overall well-being. Many clients find this approach deeply relaxing and grounding.

  • Hand Reflexology:

As an excellent alternative or complement to foot treatments, hand reflexology targets reflex points on the hands that correspond to different organs and systems. This technique is especially helpful for reducing stress, easing discomfort from repetitive use, and supporting joint health.
