Massage Treatments We Offer:
Therapeutic Massage Edmonton:
A therapeutic massage is a type of massage therapy that focuses on addressing specific health concerns or conditions of the recipient. Unlike a relaxation massage, which primarily aims to induce relaxation and reduce stress, therapeutic massage targets areas of discomfort, tension, or injury to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall well-being. Therapists may use various techniques such as deep tissue massage, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, or Swedish massage, depending on the individual’s needs and goals. Therapeutic massage can be beneficial for managing chronic pain, recovering from injuries, reducing muscle tension, improving circulation, and promoting relaxation.
Relaxation Massage:
A relaxation massage, also known as a Swedish massage, is a gentle and soothing type of massage therapy primarily designed to induce relaxation and reduce stress. It involves long, flowing strokes, kneading, and circular motions applied with light to medium pressure. The goal of a relaxation massage is to promote a sense of calmness, alleviate muscle tension, and improve overall well-being. This type of massage typically covers the whole body, including the back, neck, shoulders, arms, legs, and feet, and may incorporate techniques such as effleurage, petrissage, and gentle stretching. Relaxation massages are often sought for their therapeutic benefits in reducing anxiety, promoting better sleep, increasing circulation, and enhancing mental and physical relaxation.
TMJ Massage:
TMJ massage refers to a specialized type of massage therapy aimed at addressing temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction and related issues. The temporomandibular joint is the joint that connects your jaw to your skull, and dysfunction in this joint can lead to symptoms such as jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds, difficulty chewing, headaches, and neck or shoulder pain. During a TMJ massage session, our trained therapist will typically use a variety of techniques to address tension, stiffness, or misalignment in the muscles and tissues surrounding the jaw, face, and neck. These techniques may include gentle manipulation of the jaw joint, myofascial release techniques, trigger point therapy, and massage of the muscles involved in jaw movement. The goals of TMJ massage are to alleviate pain and discomfort, improve range of motion in the jaw, reduce muscle tension, and promote relaxation.
Sports Massage Edmonton:
Sports massage is beneficial for individuals of all activity levels, ranging from casual athletes to professionals. By focusing on specific areas of concern, it enhances performance, boosts flexibility, and mitigates the risk of injury. Sports massage serves as an effective remedy for various conditions including tendonitis, strains, sprains, and muscle/fascial adhesions. When integrated into training regimens and conditioning programs, it optimizes performance, facilitates post-competition recovery, and minimizes the likelihood of injuries.
Myofascial Cupping in Edmonton:
Myofascial cupping is a therapeutic technique that combines elements of traditional Chinese cupping therapy with principles of myofascial release. In myofascial cupping, specialized cups are applied to the skin using suction, creating a vacuum effect. This suction lifts and separates the layers of fascia, the connective tissue that surrounds muscles and other structures in the body. During a myofascial cupping session, the cups are typically placed on specific areas of the body where there is tension, restriction, or pain. The suction creates a gentle pulling sensation, which can help to release tightness and adhesions within the fascia, improve blood flow to the area, and promote relaxation. Myofascial cupping is often used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for musculoskeletal conditions such as muscle tightness, trigger points, and fascial restrictions. It can be particularly effective for addressing issues such as back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and stiffness in the muscles and connective tissues.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage:
Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a gentle massage technique designed to stimulate the lymphatic system and encourage the natural drainage of lymph fluid from the tissues back into the bloodstream. The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in the body’s immune response, fluid balance, and waste removal. During a manual lymphatic drainage session, a trained therapist uses light, rhythmic strokes and gentle pressure to move lymph fluid through the lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes. The specific movements and sequences used in MLD are designed to promote the contraction of lymphatic vessels and facilitate the drainage of excess fluid, toxins, and waste products from the body. MLD is often used to alleviate swelling and edema (fluid retention) caused by conditions such as lymphedema, post-surgical swelling, or chronic inflammatory conditions. It can also be beneficial for promoting relaxation, reducing pain, and supporting the body’s natural detoxification processes.
Prenatal/Postnatal Massage in Edmonton:
Prenatal and postnatal massage are specialized forms of massage therapy designed to address the unique needs and concerns of individuals during pregnancy and in the postpartum period. Prenatal massage is tailored to the needs of pregnant individuals and is typically performed by therapists who are trained and experienced in working with pregnant clients. The massage techniques used during prenatal massage are modified to ensure the safety and comfort of both the mother and the baby. Common modifications include positioning the client in a side-lying or semi-reclined position to avoid putting pressure on the abdomen, using lighter pressure on certain areas of the body, and avoiding certain massage techniques or pressure points that may stimulate uterine contractions. Prenatal massage can offer numerous benefits for pregnant individuals, including relief from common pregnancy-related discomforts such as back pain, hip pain, sciatic nerve pain, swelling, and fatigue. It can also help to reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep quality, and promote relaxation.
Postnatal massage, on the other hand, is focused on supporting the body’s recovery after childbirth and addressing the physical and emotional changes that occur during the postpartum period. Postnatal massage can help to relieve muscle tension and soreness, promote healing of the perineum and abdominal muscles, improve circulation, and alleviate stress and anxiety. It can also provide a nurturing and supportive environment for new mothers as they adjust to the demands of caring for a newborn.
Pediatric Massage in Edmonton:
Pediatric massage, tailored for children and teens, offers various benefits such as relaxation, pain relief, improved sleep, body awareness, emotional support, stress reduction, and enhanced bonding. Therapists are trained to use gentle techniques adjusted to each child’s age and comfort level. This specialized form of therapy helps young individuals with physical and emotional well-being, promoting a positive sense of self and fostering healthy relationships.

Hot Stone Massage:
Hot stone massage is a type of massage therapy that involves the use of smooth, heated stones placed on specific points of the body and/or used by the massage therapist to massage the body. The stones are typically made of basalt, a type of volcanic rock known for its heat retention properties. During a hot stone massage, the stones are heated to a comfortable temperature and then placed strategically along the body, such as along the spine, on the palms of the hands, or between the toes. The heat from the stones helps to relax muscles and tissues, allowing the massage therapist to apply deeper pressure if desired. In addition to placement, the therapist may also use the hot stones to perform massage strokes on the body, incorporating techniques such as Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, or even gentle stretching. The combination of heat and massage can help to relieve muscle tension, promote relaxation, increase circulation, and reduce stress.
