Our Massage Therapy Services in Ottawa
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage targets the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue to help relieve chronic pain, muscle tension, and restricted movement.
Using slow, firm pressure, this technique is highly effective for individuals with persistent muscle tightness, postural imbalances, or past injuries.
Sports Massage
Designed for athletes and active individuals, sports massage enhances performance, reduces muscle soreness, and aids in injury prevention and recovery.
This treatment involves a combination of techniques, including stretching, deep tissue work, and trigger point therapy, to keep you moving at your best.
Relaxation Massage
A gentle, soothing massage that promotes overall relaxation, reduces stress, and improves circulation.
Using smooth, flowing strokes, a relaxation massage helps to calm the nervous system, ease muscle tension, and support overall well-being.
TMJ Massage (Jaw-Specific Therapy)
TMJ (temporomandibular joint) massage focuses on relieving pain and tension in the jaw, face, and neck caused by TMJ dysfunction, teeth grinding (bruxism), or stress-related clenching.
This specialized technique can help reduce headaches, improve jaw mobility, and relieve discomfort associated with TMJ issues.
Rolf Method of Structural Integration
A specialized approach to bodywork, the Rolf Method of Structural Integration works to realign and balance the body’s structure by releasing tension in the fascia (connective tissue).
This technique can improve posture, enhance movement efficiency, and relieve chronic pain by addressing imbalances throughout the body.
