Massage Therapy
Massage Therapy is a manual manipulation of the soft tissues of the body to alleviate pain and discomfort, relieve tension, reduce stress, and improve overall health. The soft tissues of your body include your muscles, connective tissues, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and joints. Massage Therapy is provided by a credentialed massage therapist who is registered with the Remedial Massage Therapist Association (Canada) in accordance with the Regulated Health Professionals Act and the Massage Therapy Act.
The massage therapists at The Clinic YYC have completed certified training with at least 2,200 hours of practice and meet the requirements for extended health benefit providers. Our massage therapists specialize in deep tissue and therapeutic massage, trigger point therapy, relaxation massage, and prenatal massage.
