  • Face Massage Therapy

    A relaxing yet stimulating treatment of the face, neck and décolletage aiming to decrease face tension, increase blood flow, lymphatic drainage and improve overall tissue health. Face massage therapy helps create awareness of how emotions contribute to stress and changes in our appearance. The intra-oral component benefits relaxation, tense mimic muscles, and jaw tension contributing to headaches.

  • Therapeutic Massage

    A therapeutic massage assists function and movement and alleviates pain using hands-on techniques, assessment and homecare to achieve specific health goals. Modalities include Swedish massage, stretching, deeper therapeutic techniques, assisting instruments and more to manipulate muscles, connective tissues, tendons and ligaments.

  • Relaxation Massage

    A relaxation massage has similar therapeutic goals to a traditional massage but also focuses on helping you reach a state where you can breathe deeply, reconnect with your body, and unwind from stressful thoughts. This technique involves longer and slower massage strokes, sometimes including touch to the hands, feet, scalp and face.

Questions & Answers


  • How early should I arrive before my appointment?

    Please aim to arrive 5 to 10 minutes before your scheduled appointment to ensure you have time to unwind, use the washroom, or enjoy a cup of tea. If you find no one at the front desk upon arrival, simply take a seat, and someone will be with you shortly to welcome you. If the front door is locked, it may be due to a temporary absence from the reception area. Rest assured, either a colleague or myself will promptly assist you upon your arrival.

  • Do you offer pregnancy massage?

    Yes, I do treat pregnant clients using side-lying and supine positions to ensure comfort and safety during the massage session.

  • Am I expected to talk during the massage?

    It's entirely your choice whether you'd like to bask in silence or engage in conversation to further your relaxation. If you're feeling anxious, stressed, or down, please know that creating a safe and non-judgmental space for you is important to me. Rest assured, I'll adapt to your preferences to ensure you feel comfortable and at ease. Additionally, before each massage, we'll discuss your goals and preferences to ensure a personalized experience that caters to your specific needs.

  • What are proprioceptors and why are they important?

    Proprioceptors are like little sensors inside our muscles, tendons, and joints that help our brains understand where our body is and what it's doing. They're kind of like our body's internal GPS!

    These proprioceptors, including muscle spindles, Golgi tendon organs, and joint receptors, work together to tell our brain about things like muscle length, tension, and joint position. Think of muscle spindles as the stretch detectors, Golgi tendon organs as the tension monitors, and joint receptors as the movement trackers. They're all there to help keep us balanced, coordinated, and safe from injury while we move around.

    So, muscle proprioceptors are super important because they help us move smoothly, stay balanced, and prevent us from overstretching or using too much force.

  • Do you offer incisional wound drainage?

    No, I don't offer incisional wound drainage. As a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) in Canada, I’m not permitted to open incisions to manually drain fluid from the body.

  • Is the center wheelchair accessible?

    The front door can accommodate most small wheelchairs and scooters. After passing through a couple of doors and one corner, you can park your ambulatory aid outside the treatment room due to limited space inside. Feel free to drop by and see if our centre meets your needs.
