Option A
If Your Goal Is Wellness & Stress Relief
Swedish Massage
The best universal starting point. Full-body, gentle to moderate pressure, appropriate for virtually every client. Start here if unsure
Relaxation Massage
Similar to Swedish but more freeform. Ideal when pure comfort and restoration is the goal — no clinical complexity.
Hot Stone Massage
Adds therapeutic heat to the session. Deeply relaxing. Best for poor circulation, burnout, and those who want depth without intense pressure.
Aromatherapy Massage
Essential oil blends added to the session for mood, sleep, and stress-specific effects alongside the physical massage benefit.
For special occasions, gifting, or shared experiences at home.
Option B
If Your Goal Is Pain Relief or Recovery
Therapeutic Massage
The most versatile clinical modality. Full assessment included. Best first choice for any specific complaint, injury, or recurring pain pattern
Deep Tissue Massage
For chronic structural tension, adhesions, and pain that hasn't responded to lighter technique. Firm, sustained pressure.
Myofascial Therapy
For fascial restrictions and chronic pain unresponsive to standard massage. Slow, sustained approach.
Trigger Point Massage
For specific muscle knots and their referred pain patterns. Precise and targeted.
For athletes and active individuals — performance, recovery, and injury prevention focused.
Transparent, fair pricing
No hidden fees. All sessions include RMT travel, equipment, assessment, and insurance receipt.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
There is no truly wrong choice — a skilled RMT adapts within any service framework. If you book Swedish and mention lower back pain at intake, your therapist will include targeted work on that area. If you need more clinical depth than the service provides, they'll recommend the right service for your next session. Your session is always adaptable based on your actual needs on the day.
Yes — always. Tell your therapist to increase or decrease pressure, focus on a different area, or change the pace at any point. Your comfort and goals drive the session. A good RMT is continuously adapting to your feedback throughout the appointment.
Yes — Swedish massage. It is the universal starting point for first-time clients, those unsure of what they need, and anyone whose goal is general wellbeing rather than treating a specific complaint. If you genuinely don't know where to start, book a 90-minute Swedish massage and discuss your goals with your therapist at intake.
In most cases, yes — when performed by an RMT, all service types (Swedish, deep tissue, therapeutic, hot stone, etc.) qualify for the same extended health benefits coverage. The key is the therapist's RMT credential, not the specific service type. Always check your plan documents for any service-specific exclusions.
