An RMT is a professional massage therapist registered with the province’s regulating body and has performed 2200 hours of education. While massage therapy may be relaxing, it also helps to promote overall well-being, reducing stress, improving mobility, and alleviating pain through various massage techniques.
Massage therapists target specific issues and areas of the body in order to alleviate pain and tension. They also develop customized treatment plans tailored to each specific case. Spa massages are geared toward relaxation and rejuvenation rather than addressing specific ailments.
This depends on the type of massage, the area you want to target, and your overall goals. The answer can also vary based on the issue or injury, but in general for maintenance, once every 4-8 weeks is recommended. Individual treatment plans will vary. Consult your massage therapist for a customized answer.
A massage therapy session affects the production of certain hormones. It reduces the amount of cortisol – which is produced when the body is under stress. It also releases serotonin, the so-called “happy chemical,” while also increasing the glucose levels in the blood. This combination amplifies your ability to stave off anxiety and sadness.
