Massage therapy involves the manipulation of soft tissue and joints to promote your health, balance and wellness.
What Are Some Benefits?
Manipulation of the body’s soft tissues can help relieve various soft tissue ailments, and can be used for therapeutic and relaxation purposes. It helps with soft tissue injuries, pain/discomfort during pregnancy, and can be great for reducing stress. Many conditions can be addressed and managed with this type of therapy. Visit the Registered Massage Therapy Association of British Columbia for a comprehensive list.
Most extended health care plans cover RMT. Check with your insurance company before your first appointment to check whether you need a referral from a doctor or midwife.
Techniques Offered
We have four RMTs on staff, and the following methods are available:
- Swedish is one of the most common types available. It helps energize the body and improve overall health.
- Deep tissue applies firm pressure and uses slow strokes to address deep layers of muscle and fascia.
- Myofascial release focuses on alleviating pain in the myofascial tissues.
- Trigger point therapy releases painful tension in muscles and fascia considered a “knot.”
- Pre/postnatal helps alleviate back strain and headaches, and ease postpartum stress.
- Sports targets areas of the body strained by strenuous and repetitive movements.

Do you recommend chiropractic and massage?
What will I experience during my session?
The deep tissue method or trigger point therapies use deeper pressure and more intensive methods. Because we want to ensure the pressure is within your comfort level, if you would like to receive less or more pressure at any time, just let your therapist know.
