Registered Massage Therapy

How does Massage Therapy work? 

Our experienced massage therapists use a variety of popular therapies. Treatments may include Swedish massage, sports massage and trigger point therapy.

Your massage therapist, R.M.T., can offer light, medium or deep pressure depending on your needs.

Massage therapy reduces muscle pain and joint stiffness often caused by ageing, repetitive or chronic overuse, sports injuries and accidents. Treatments can also reduce stress and detoxify the body.

Pre-natal massage is also offered. Pre-natal massage is a safe way to improve circulation, address the added strain on joints and muscles, reduce swelling and back pain.

What to Expect

On your first visit, you will be asked for a confidential health history, which will help your therapist form an assessment and treatment plan. Massage therapy should take place in an atmosphere of safety and confidence. It is a partnership between you and your therapist, who will help you understand the processes behind your pain and how you can work together to alleviate it. All treatment will be explained to you, and requires your consent.

Who qualifies as a Massage Therapist?

Ontario has one of the most extensive massage therapy programs in the world, and is regulated by the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario. Students complete 2,200 hours of intensive anatomical, physiological, and clinical studies at a government approved massage therapy school. Graduation is a prerequisite to taking provincial examinations. Successful candidates then become licensed as Registered Massage Therapists.

Does OHIP/My Health Plan Cover Massage Therapy?

While massage therapy is not covered by OHIP, many private insurance companies provide full or partial coverage under extended health care plans. Government group medical insurance may cover massage therapy under certain specified criteria.Under the new “no fault” automobile insurance, potential coverage has increased from four years to 10 years and from $25,000 to $500,000 for treatment of injuries sustained in automobile accidents.

How Can Massage Therapy Help Me?

Many of today’s health problems arise from stress. Because stress upsets the delicate integral balance of all your body’s functions, regaining this balance requires a holistic approach.

Massage is excellent in the treatment of many health issues, including the following:

  • migraines

  • anxiety issues
  • post injury rehabilitation
  • whiplash
