RMT treatment for muscle tension, stress, headaches and recovery — covered by most benefit plans.
Who it’s for
People with tight, aching muscles, tension headaches, stress, or athletes and workers who need to recover faster between efforts.
What your care includes
- Deep tissue and therapeutic massage
- Sports massage and pre/post-event care
- Relaxation and stress-reduction treatment
- Trigger point and myofascial release
- Home care and stretching guidance
Benefits
Real relief for tension and ache
Targeted work on tight, overworked muscles eases the neck, shoulder and back ache that builds up from desks, driving and physical jobs.
Fewer tension headaches
Much head pain is driven by neck, jaw and shoulder tension. Treating those muscles often reduces how often headaches hit and how hard.
Better sleep and lower stress
Therapeutic massage down-regulates a revved-up nervous system — many patients sleep noticeably better the night after treatment.
Faster recovery between efforts
For athletes and physical workers, regular treatment helps clear post-effort soreness and keeps small tight spots from becoming injuries.
Conditions it treats
- Neck & shoulder tension
- Tension headaches
- Back ache & muscle spasm
- Stress & poor sleep
- Sports recovery
- Whiplash (with ICBC claim)
What a typical appointment looks like
- A short health intake — Your RMT asks about your history, injuries, medications and what you want from the session — pressure preferences included. Anything relevant to safety (pregnancy, recent surgery, blood thinners) matters here.
- Privacy and draping, explained — You'll be given privacy to get on the table, and only the area being treated is undraped at any time. You can ask to adjust pressure, position or focus areas at any point — during the session too.
- The treatment itself — Sessions are typically 30, 45 or 60 minutes. Your therapist works through the agreed areas, checks in on pressure, and may include stretching or joint movement.
- Aftercare before you leave — Expect simple guidance: move gently, hydrate, and which stretches help hold the result. If your issue needs a series, your RMT will say so honestly — and when physio or chiro would serve you better.
Appointment lengths are typical ranges — the clinic confirms yours at booking.
Your part
- Arrive hydrated and avoid a heavy meal right before your session
- Communicate — say if pressure is too much or too little, or if anything feels sharp or wrong
- Mention new injuries, medications, pregnancy or health changes since your last visit
- Expect mild soreness for a day after deeper work; tell your clinic if it lasts longer
- Between sessions, use the stretches and posture breaks suggested — they stretch the benefit further
What to bring
Your extended-health details if you're claiming (RMT treatment is covered by most plans), and a note of any medications or recent injuries.
