Registered Massage Therapy
Our registered massage therapists work with you to provide you with a relaxing and effective treatment.
Through the assessment and manipulation of soft tissues and joints, massage therapy can have a very positive effect on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems. The rehabilitation of physical injuries, and the improvement of health and relaxation, are some of the benefits resulting from therapeutic massage.

- Repetitive Strain Injuries (i.e. tendonitis; Carpal Tunnel Syndrome; “Tennis Elbow”; etc)
- Pregnancy
- Sciatica
- Arthritic Conditions
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
- Fibromyalgia
…. and many other conditions.

Registered Massage Therapy treatments may consist an interview, discussion of the presenting condition, assessment/reassessment, treatment, and any home care instruction within the scheduled time period.
