💆♂️ Why Massage Therapy?
Massage therapy offers a wide range of physical, emotional, and medical benefits. Some of the most common include:
✅ Pain Relief
Massage helps reduce muscle tension, joint stiffness, and nerve compression. It's highly effective for:
-
Lower back pain
-
Neck and shoulder tension

Sports and overuse injuries
✅ Injury Recovery
Our massage therapists work in coordination with Physiotherapy and Kinesiology care to support:
-
Soft tissue healing

✅ Stress Reduction
Massage helps calm the nervous system, reducing cortisol (the stress hormone) and increasing serotonin and dopamine for a better mood and better sleep.

By targeting tight or imbalanced muscles, massage therapy enhances flexibility and alignment—especially helpful for people with desk jobs or active lifestyles.
