Massage Therapy

Massage therapy is the hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of your body including your joints, muscles, connective tissue, tendons and ligaments.

Massage therapy is a safe and natural health alternative that can help alleviate soft tissue discomfort associated with everyday and occupational stresses, muscular over-use, trauma and other musculoskeletal disorders. It encourages the body's own healing process, which decreases healing time, and is an excellent form of preventative health care.

Benefits of massage:

1. Decrease or elimination of musculoskeletal pain
2. Recommended for conditions including, but not limited to:

  • plantar fasciitis, ITB syndrome, shin splints
  • headaches, neck pain, whiplash, thoracic outlet syndrome
  • low back pain, postural disorders, scoliosis, sciatica
  • diabetes, lymphatic disorders, edema
  • improved circulation of blood and movement of sluggish lymph fluids
  • stress relief
  • increased sense of well-being and positive mood changes

Massage therapy is very effective when added to your existing physiotherapy or rehabilitation program, or as an added component to your wellness/fitness plan.
