Massage Therapy:
Registered Massage THerapists (RMTs) are trained in the assessment, treatment and prevention of soft tissue injury and dysfunction.
Massage Therapy uses a multitude of techniques, along with exercise prescription to effectively treat the muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nervous system, allowing the body to operate at its greatest potential. Any individual can benefit from Massage Therapy as it is proven to be effective at managing both acute and chronic musculoskeletal and neurological pain.
RMTs are effective in treating and providing relief for a wide range of conditions such as:
migraine headaches
tendonitis
arthritis
osteoporosis
fibromyalgia
stress
sports injuries
many other conditions related to soft tissue and joint dysfunction.
Relaxation is another one of the beneficial outcomes of Massage Therapy. Many people schedule regular Massage Therapy treatments to ease the stress and strain that repetitive occupational demands or recreational pursuits place on their bodies.
In addition, Massage Therapy compliments other forms of therapy including Physiotherapy, Chiropractic care and Acupuncture by speeding up the recovery process and preventing future re-injury.
