Benefits of Massage
Everyone
Massage therapy offers numerous benefits to the entire body. It helps ease joint and muscle pain,
and can help with natural pain control, blood pressure issues, boost your immune system, flush
toxins, and assist in injury healing.
Athletes
Involved in sports? Specific treatments tailored to improving and maintaining a healthy body. Focussing on
stretching and strengthening is key to a healthy athlete. Maintenance treatments will keep you active and
happy!
Seniors
The massage techniques utilized for seniors include lighter, gentle stroking and kneading as well as
application of pressure to specific points on the body. Even the most gentle massage has proven effects
on the nervous system and blood circulation, two of the most vulnerable systems of the body that feel
the effects of aging. A typical massage for a senior usually involves a short session lasting around
thirty minutes.

About
My interest in massage therapy
began nearly 20 years ago after two motor vehicle accidents.
With massage therapy, physiotherapy and other modalities, I was able to return to a healthy me.
Since then massage has always been important to me, both physically and mentally. As an RMT I
look forward to working with my clients in a relaxing, calm and welcoming environment. Our lives
today can be overwhelming, and massage gives us that chance to unwind, focus on what our bodies
are telling us, and allow us to heal and relax.
As a husband, father of 5, and grandfather, I know how busy and stressful life can be. It’s important to look after ourselves, so we can feel our best to take on what life offers with enthusiasm!
I graduated with honours from Westervelt College Massage Therapy Program in 2019. I enjoy working with clients of all ages to assist in promoting a healthier life, providing relaxation and treating various issues. In my spare time I enjoy being outdoors, gardening and fishing, and hikes with my wife!
"The practice of Massage Therapy is the assessment of the soft tissue and joints of the body and the treatment and prevention of physical dysfunction and pain of the soft tissue and joints by manipulation to develop, maintain, rehabilitate or augment physical function, or relieve pain." (Massage Therapy Act, 1991)
"Massage therapy consists primarily of hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body, specifically, the muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints for the purpose of optimizing health. Massage therapy treatment has a therapeutic effect on the body and optimizes health and well-being by acting on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems. Physical function can be developed, maintained and improved; and physical dysfunction and pain and the effects of stress can be relieved or prevented through the use of Massage Therapy. Various specialized movements of the hands, over the skin or clothes, make up the Massage Therapy treatment. The Massage Therapist will work with your level of pain tolerance during the treatment, and the treatment can be stopped at any time should the treatment become uncomfortable." (www.cmto.com)
