Massage

Massage therapy in Ottawa has a wide variety of uses and benefits, ranging from enjoying a relaxing day of pampering to helping you recover from athletics and promoting pain relief. At Merivale Chiropractic and Massage Clinic, we have licensed massage therapists on staff that are trained in a variety of techniques, so if you have aches and pains, schedule an appointment today.

How Massage Helps with Aches and Pains

Massage therapy has been studied for decades, especially for relieving back pain and neck pain. Both hard pressure and light pressure massages can be beneficial. What massage does is coax your muscles to relax and release tension, which can provide immediate pain relief. Researchers also believe massage stimulates nerves, helping quell pain signals.

Types of Massage We Offer

Our licensed massage therapy team offers several types of massage, each with their own specialized benefits. All our massages are customized to match your health needs and goals, and pressure can be adjusted to match your pain tolerance.

  • Deep Tissue Massage: Excellent for chronic pain, athletic recovery, injury recovery, and those with physically demanding jobs/hobbies
  • Myofascial release: Excellent for relaxing muscles, boosting circulation, and improving range of motion
  • Sports Massage: Excellent for athletes looking to optimize blood flow, reduce pain, speed up recovery, trigger point release, and increased range of motion
  • Swedish Massage: Excellent for pain reduction, loosening up stiff joints, combating poor circulation, and providing pain relief for osteoarthritis

Since massage isn’t always for everyone, we will evaluate you before providing care. Massage is contraindicated in those with infection, certain skin conditions, and several health conditions. We want you to be safe when you step through our doors.
