massage therapy

 Massage therapy involves the assessment and treatment of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints. It is used to decrease pain, alleviate discomfort, and prevent injury and dysfunction. Using hands-on Swedish massage techniques, our skilled therapists manipulate the soft tissues to restore function, improve circulation, reduce tension, and increase mobility.

At Ellevate, our registered massage therapists bring years of experience and training in treating a wide range of conditions—from sports injuries and postural imbalances to chronic pain, stress, and prenatal concerns. Whether you're recovering from an injury, dealing with tension from long hours at a desk, or simply in need of some much-deserved relaxation, we tailor each session to meet your individual needs.

Massage therapy can also support overall wellness by calming the nervous system and promoting deep relaxation... zZzZzZ... yes, it really is that good.

 Prenatal massage is designed specifically for pregnant individuals, focusing on addressing the unique needs and discomforts associated with pregnancy and is performed with supportive side-lying positioning.

 ***It may not be recommended for those with high-risk pregnancies, preeclampsia, deep vein thrombosis, severe swelling, or other medical complications. It is of most importance to inform your therapist of any health concerns or conditions prior to your massage. ***

Postpartum massage can aid in recovery and relaxation anytime after childbirth—whether days or weeks later—based on your comfort. Be sure to share any concerns or discomfort with your therapist before your session.

Your safety—and your baby’s—is always our top priority.

Cupping massage is a therapeutic technique that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. Some therapists use fire to create the suction, however, our therapists use an manual pump. 

Considerations: It is common for markings to appear where the cups have been placed. These are not bruises, however they may appear to look like bruises. The colour can range from light red to dark maroon. Be sure to inform your therapist of any health concerns or conditions prior to your massage.
