Massage Therapy is a form of health care that treats the body’s soft tissues and joints by performing massage techniques to rehabilitate, develop or maintain physical function. Massage therapy is administered by a professional health care provider called a Massage Therapist who has completed a 2,200 hour program which includes orthopaedic assessments, remedial exercise, anatomy, pathophysiology and hydrotherapy. At Active Wellness our massage therapists’ objective is to have each client feeling better, enjoy a pain-free active lifestyle and maintain a healthy body. We want every treatment you have with us to be beneficial to your health & ultimately feel actively well.

No referral is necessary.

It is recommended that clients see the same therapist at every appointment because:
- therapist knows the clients body well & can assess quickly what is normal to abnormal
- treatment is more efficient, results are more effective
- progress of the treatment is rated more accurately
- therapist learns more about the client every treatment
- client gains more trust of the therapist
- clients can rely on therapist if in need of relief of symptoms or pain
