We often store tension in the muscles of the back, neck, and shoulders, often without realizing it.

Massage therapy can help reduce stress by releasing tension from those areas. At Action Physiotherapy, our massage therapists use a wide range of techniques to positively support the circulatory, musculoskeletal, nervous, and respiratory systems.

People of all ages can improve with the healing touch of massage therapy, delivered in a professional, relaxing environment.

What To Expect When Visiting A Massage Therapist

When you arrive for your appointment, your massage therapist will start by reviewing your history.

Understanding how the issue began and how you have responded to past physical treatments helps the massage therapist choose the best approach, methods, and pressure.

You can prioritize multiple problem areas and request where you want more attention. During the session, your massage therapist will seek your feedback to maximize healing while preventing pain.

A massage therapist provides a safe, respectful, and relaxing atmosphere where you can expect clear communication and a methodical approach.

Duration Of  Treatment

You and your massage therapist will determine the frequency of appointments based on the type and severity of injury/health issue. Most health insurance plans cover sessions.
