Healthy Roots Massage

Author: Healthy Roots Massage

I graduated from Western College of Massage Therapy in 2017 with a certification in sports massage therapy. I strive to meet each client's individual need for massage, whether it be for relaxation and stress relief or for therapeutic reasons to help with tension or injury. Each session begins with a full assessment to ensure the treatment is safely and effectively tailored to meet the client's needs. My main goal is to treat the areas that cause discomfort before treating the symptoms created by them. I follows each treatment by giving either stretches or mobility exercises to help the client maintain the benefits of the massage at home and work. I enjoy using his knowledge of fitness and health to help people achieve and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

What types of treatments do you provide?

I provide massage that targets your reason for the treatment. Relaxation and deep tissue for those times you want to just give your body a tune-up or de-stress and relax. Rehab for any injuries or chronic pains that have been bothering you that you want to feel better from. Always remember that it’s your treatment so you decide what you’ll like and not like.

Do you give receipts that can be claimed for insurance/benefits?

I currently cannot. I am waiting for the registration exam in BC to be available this coming winter/spring. Until then I can only bill as wellness massage. You will need to check with your insurance provider if they cover wellness massage.

Are you able to massage my kids?

The youngest I’ll treat for childen is 12 just because their bodies are ever changing and growing. I do suggest that if booking a treatment for a child under 16 to book either 30min or 45min because they are still growing into an adult.

What do I wear for the massage?

Most clients dress down to their underwear. I always tell my clients however that they should dress to their comfort level. My primary concern is to always make sure that you are comfortable for the entire treatment.
