What is Massage?

The College of Massage Therapists of Ontario (CMTO) states that Massage therapy is the assessment of the soft tissue and joints of body and treatment or prevention of physical dysfunction and pain of these areas by manipulation to develop, maintain, rehabilitate or augment physical function or relieve pain. Bassist Swedish massage is the most common form of massage.

Swedish Massage

The most well-known massage. It deals with the soft-tissue structure of the human body by means of a variety of strokes. Strokes are generally applied by hand with oil to lessen friction. Swedish massage can help the body remove toxins, deliver nutrients to tissues and cells more efficiently, and recover from strains and trauma more quickly. (see our fee schedule)

Prenatal

Prenatal massage incorporates basic Swedish Massage geared to meet the unique needs of the maternal body. It promotes overall relaxation while addressing the muscular tension and discomforts associated with pregnancy. (see our fee schedule)

Hot Stone

Hot Stone Massage utilizes smooth basalt river stones. When applied to the body, the stones create a deep penetrating heat to aid in enhancing circulation, reducing muscular tension, soreness and stress, and promoting relaxation. (see our fee schedule)

Reflexology

Reflexology is a focused pressure technique, usually directed at the feet or hands. It is based on the premise that there are zones and reflexes on different parts of the body which correspond to and are relative to all parts, glands and organs. (see our fee schedule)

Reflexology is beneficial for:

  • Back Pain
  • Migraines and Headaches
  • Arthritis
  • Hormonal Imbalances
  • Digestive Disorders
  • Stress-related Conditions

Reflexology does not claim to cure, diagnose or prescribe.

OSTEOPATHIC MANUAL THERAPY

Osteopathy works on the premise that all parts of the body are integrated and work together.

It is the highest form of holistic, drug free medicine.

It uses non-invasive, manual techniques on the joints, muscles and spine to restore balance and function.  Manual techniques include a combination of moving the joints through all ranges of motion, gentle rocking motions and stretching.

It restores proper movement and improves structural stability.  Each osteopathic manual therapy treatment is tailored specifically to the needs of the individual based on a complete structural evaluation.           

It helps the circulation and nervous system to work more effectively by removing stresses, strains and compressions within the body. This frees the flow of the nerves, veins, arteries, and lymphatics.

Osteopathic Manual Therapy can treat a variety of conditions such as:

            • pain 
            • headaches
            • repetitive strain injuries
            • constipation
            • infertility
            • neuralgia
            • carpal tunnel
Osteopathic Manuel Therapy Client Testimonials:  

Over the last 25 years I have suffered from numerous episodes of chronic back and nerve pain. After spending countless $ on various treatments, I was still left with a continuous reduction in daily activities. I knew from my episodes that even though the pain was intermitted, the real causes remained a problem. 

The best thing about Osteopathic treatments is how it addresses the entire body and not just the symptoms. It proved to be the most cost effective treatment I ever tried in my life and nothing has ever helped me more!

Rebecca from Heritage Health offers the perfect balance between a caring therapist and a Dr. who not only understands how the body is meant to move and function together but also knows how to gently restore balance.

I have hope again; and have made tremendous gains in my daily activities. I can even play and wrestle with my children again! I can’t thank you enough Rebecca!

Rob

Dear Rebecca,

Words can not express how grateful I am to you and the services you provide.  After two years of infertility, having osteopathy treatments enabled me to become pregnant.  Continued treatments throughout my pregnancy helped to ease lower back pain and to prepare my body for labour and nursing.  I was amazed at how great I felt during my pregnancy and how quickly my body healed afterward.  You have a true gift and talent for what you do and I know you will help many more people in the years to come.  Here is a picture of my sweet McKenna.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart, 

Karen
