What Is Registered Massage Therapy?

Our Vancouver Registered Massage Therapists at West End Wellness, also seen as RMT, are highly trained and registered with the Massage Therapists Association of British Columbia. RMT specializes in relaxation, reflexology, sports and deep tissue massage. We pride ourselves on our versatile treatments to suit you with aftercare and advice to improve your general health and support your journey towards well-being.

Registered Massage Therapy RMT is the manual manipulation of soft tissues to enhance a person’s health and well-being. Massage Therapy can range from a deep tissue massage for rotator cuff, a massage for sciatica pain to pregnancy massages. Massage Therapy can decrease stress and help control pain. Massage therapy is very effective in treating deeper structures of the body, which is why it can help create positive change following physical trauma, accident or surgery.

What Else Should I Know About Registered Massage Therapy?

With the appropriate pressure, massage can directly affect the circulatory system, which helps reduce inflammation and helps relieve pain. You are encouraged to communicate with your Registered Massage Therapist about your pain/comfort level at any time during your massage.

One massage per month would be ideal depending on your preventative and support needs. If your specific circumstance or needs demand it, your Registered Massage Therapist will be on hand to design a customized treatment plan which may involve more or less frequent massages.

It’s not unusual to feel a level of muscle soreness after a massage. This is because, at times, a massage triggers a release of lactic acid stored in tense muscles, creating a brief feeling of soreness. The good news? Countless people enjoy post-massage heightened energy levels and an increased range of motion.

  • Massage shouldn't be painful! You might feel some temporary soreness afterward, which is a sign that tight muscles are loosening up. Some areas may feel a bit sensitive during the massage, especially if you have pain.

    Our therapists are trained to use gentle pressure and will always check in with you about your comfort level. If anything feels uncomfortable, just let them know, and they'll adjust their pressure. Our goal is for you to leave feeling relaxed and rejuvenated!

  • Your comfort is our priority! You can undress to whatever level feels best for you. Many people choose to wear underwear or a sports bra and shorts.

    We'll provide towels and blankets to keep you draped throughout the massage. Therapists will always leave the room while you get comfortable and return when you're ready.

    We also offer certain massages where you can stay clothed - talk to us when you book to find the best option for you!
