Registered Massage Therapy

Registered Massage Therapists provide relief for a wide range of conditions through the manipulation of soft tissues of the body including muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints.

By manipulating these soft tissues, RMT’s help alleviate the discomfort associated with every day occupational stresses, muscular over-use, migraines, headaches, tendonitis, arthritis, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, sports injuries and many chronic pain conditions related to soft tissue and joint dysfunction. 

The therapeutic use of massage affects all the systems of the body, in particular, the muscular, circulatory, lymphatic, immune and nervous systems. Our Registered Massage Therapist will assess your condition to determine the optimal treatment based on your personal health goals, medical history and current situation.

**Cupping is available as an integration to your massage session or as a targeted massage therapy offering (billed under Registered Massage Therapy).  Please see here for more details about Cupping Therapy.

Pre and Post Natal Massage (pregnancy and post-partum massage)

Anyone who's ever had a professional massage knows that both body and mind feel better afterwards — and the same goes for prenatal massage, which can feel extra wonderful when extra weight and changes in posture stir up new aches and pains.

As pregnancy comes to an end and you begin your journey into motherhood, you’re likely discovering that your body doesn’t feel the same as it did pre-pregnancy. Exhaustion, aches, and swelling may feel as though they’re your new normal. With postpartum massage, you can begin the healing process and take advantage of an array of health benefits, including: 

• Relaxation and relief from stress and anxiety
