MASSAGE THERAPY

Muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and connective tissues are all part of the body that can be manipulated with massage treatment. There are numerous approaches that can be used in advanced massage therapy.

Our licensed massage therapist will use techniques like kneading, stroking, rubbing, tapping, and applying pressure to help you unwind, feel better, move more freely, and calm your nerves and muscles. The therapist will tailor the massage to your specific needs and health status.

The great thing about massage therapy is that it has dual medicinal applications –

  • It can be used separately
  • Or, as a supplement to other treatments

Who is an RMT

A Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) is a healthcare professional who has completed the necessary education and training to provide massage therapy services. They have typically finished an approved massage therapy curriculum and gotten the appropriate registration or license to work in their area.

Registered massage therapists have extensive knowledge of the musculoskeletal system, physiology, and pathology. They assess clients’ needs, develop personalized treatment plans, and use manual manipulation of soft tissues to promote relaxation, pain relief, and overall wellness. They also work on client education programs.
