Massage Therapy

Your St. Catharines Registered Massage Therapists

What is Massage Therapy?
Massage therapy is an increasingly popular treatment option for a wide range of medical conditions, involving the manipulation of soft tissues in your body concentrating on muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments, and joints. A massage therapist will use varying amounts of pressure and movements on the muscular, nervous, and circulatory systems to optimize your health and well-being. There are many benefits in including massage therapy in your treatment plan, such as stress reduction, decreased blood pressure, muscle relaxation and circulation, and strengthened immunity. At Dalhousie Health and Wellness we offer therapeutic and hot stone massage.

Special Interests In...

Deep Tissue & Therapeutic 

Deep tissue and therapeutic massage  target the deeper layers of muscles and fascia.  It will release knots and trigger points, increase blood flow and circulation,  as well as improving the range of motion in joints and muscles.  This is a great technique for sports injuries and daily aches and pains.

 Hot Stone & Relaxation Massage

A hot stone massage has all the benefits of a therapeutic massage.  Warm stones are placed on specific pressure points to warm up muscles for a deeper and more efficient massage that will also improve circulation. Additional benefits include reduced anxiety and stress, promotes sleep, and improves your immune system.

Prenatal Massage

There are many benefits to adding pregnancy massage to your prenatal care. It is a soothing and safe treatment for mom-to-be and baby that relieves pressure on weight-bearing joints.  It helps with upper and lower back problems, sciatica, and tired achy muscles.  

Postpartum Care

Massage therapy can be extremely helpful for the pains associated  with delivery and during the postpartum period. Abdominal massage, scar-tissue release post c-section and blocked breast ducts are common reasons for massage therapy visits during the postpartum period.  Massage therapy can be incredibly relaxing and help ease the aches associated with being a new mom. 

Infant & Paediatric Massage

Massage for your baby can be helpful for a variety of reasons; teething, colic, muscle development and boosting the immune system. Children of all ages can benefit from massage therapy. Children often experience aches and pains as they grow. Massage can ease your child's growing pains, sports related muscle pain and postural strains. 

Reiki

Reiki is a type of energy work. Our bodies are made of energy centres called chakras. It is a calming form of touch that helps clear energy blockages that may have developed from stress, illness, injury or trauma. It is a very relaxing form of treatment that can be enjoyed on its own or as a part of a massage therapy treatment.
