Massage Therapy in Burlington

Massage therapy is the manual mobilization/manipulation of soft tissue (Muscles, tendons, Ligaments, or fascia) for the purpose of improving health. All of our therapists are Registered Massage Therapists (RMT) with the Canadian Massage Therapist of Ontario.

Massage therapy has therapeutic effects on the musculoskeletal system, the circulatory system, and the nervous system. It can improve on how these systems function and aid in injury recovery, muscle tension relief and general stress management. The benefits can be physical, psychological and emotional in nature.

Many people access massage therapy on a regular basis for maintenance due to the daily physical and mental demands on their bodies. This helps to control the adverse accumulated effects over weeks or months of a stressful work or home life.

If you’re under pressure at work, school or in your family life, you probably know how soothing it can be to have a neck or back massage. Even reaching behind your head and rubbing your own neck can help to relieve tension.

Massage therapy takes that relief to the next level as it is performed by educated, licensed healthcare professionals who understand human anatomy and how these manual techniques can relieve pain and tension, improve circulation and a whole host of other benefits.

Whether you are an athlete who is constantly on the move, or an office worker who sits in front of a computer most of the day, massage therapy can help improve the quality of your life.
