Registered Massage Therapy

What Is Registered Massage Therapy?

Massage Therapy is more than relaxation—it’s a therapeutic approach to improving your health and well-being. Performed by certified professionals, massage therapy targets soft tissues, including muscles, tendons, and ligaments, to relieve pain, enhance mobility, and promote overall wellness.

Common techniques used by our registered massage therapists are deep tissue massage, cross fibre massage, myofascial/trigger point release, muscle attachment release, stretch massage, neuromuscular therapy and craniosacral therapy. These forms of massage therapy can be applied through clothing or over bare skin using lotion or oil.

Common Conditions Treated with Massage Therapy

• Massage therapy can effectively treat a variety of conditions, including:
• Whiplash and ICBC-related motor vehicle accident injuries.
• Neck and lower back pain, including sciatic nerve pain.
• Headaches and migraines.
• Muscle spasms, joint stiffness and pain
• Sports injuries and overuse conditions.
• Arthritis, fibromyalgia, and osteoporosis.
