What Is Registered Massage Therapy?
Massage therapy in general is a form of health care in which the soft tissue of the patient – muscles, tendon, ligaments and joints – are manipulated in order to provide relief of pain, muscle tension, stress, and associated ailments.
To provide registered massage therapy Kanata, a practitioner (RMT: Registered Massage Therapist) must have:
- graduated from an accredited post-secondary institution
- surpassed at least 2,200 hours of training
- passed the provincial certification examination
- be a member of the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario
All RMTs at Ottawa Physiotherapy and Sports Clinics fulfill these standards. No matter what you are coming in for, from injury rehabilitation to stress relief: you are in good hands.
Stress Relief At Massage Therapy Clinic Kanata
While our modern lives are convenient in many ways, those same conveniences can be problematic. One side effect they have brought is prolonged periods of sitting, common especially in office environments. Sitting for long periods of time is detrimental to our health: it is bad for our posture, can increase blood pressure and blood sugar, create muscle tensions, and lead to cardiovascular issues. All these can additionally be exacerbated by high levels of stress and lead to other symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety and irregular sleep patterns.
Massage therapy in Kanata can help you reduce stress and muscle tension and reduce the detrimental effects of prolonged sitting. But the benefits of massage therapy in Kanata reach even further. Here are just some of the benefits associated with massage therapy Kanata Lakes.

Physical Benefits of Massage Therapy Kanata
Massage therapy improves blood circulation by loosening muscle tension and stimulating the flow of blood in those areas. Positive side effects of this are increased tissue nutrition, an accelerated metabolism and lower blood pressure. At the same time, looser muscles are more flexible. Increased motion range can prevent injuries, reduce spasms and cramping, and lead to more comfort and quicker recovery (after exercising, for example).
But those are just the muscle-related benefits. A lymphatic massage, for example, can boost your immune system. Lymph nodes essentially function as filters throughout our bodies. They filter as many toxins, inflammation, and disease as possible out of our bloodstream. But as with all filters, lymph nodes need occasional drainage to function properly. A lymphatic massage can provide that drainage, leading to increased white blood cell count and draining your lymph build-up.
Finally, there is another form of physical benefit from massage therapy in Kanata that are related to stress. Sometimes, stress and tense muscles can lead to other, seemingly unrelated ailments such as headaches/migraine. Massage therapy can play a role in improving these symptoms. By loosening muscles and stimulating the nervous system, a visit to our massage therapy clinic Kanata can lead to improvements in your sleep pattern, reduce insomnia and increase your overall physical well-being.
Psychological Benefits of Massage Therapy Kanata
Massage therapy not only contributes to your physical well-being. It can also improve your psychological well-being and mental health.
Symptoms of stress often manifest in physical forms, such as muscle tension or insomnia. But it can also show in psychological patterns, such as restlessness or difficulties concentrating. By reducing stress, massage therapy can improve your mood, as well as your ability to focus and concentrate.
For more information on how massage therapy may be able to help you with your own personal ailments, consult with your massage therapist Kanata before treatment and set the goals you want to achieve through your treatment.
Things To Know Before Massage Therapy Kanata Lakes
Please note that massage therapy is unfortunately not covered by OHIP. However, it may be included in your personal insurance or benefits plan.

Before your first treatment, your massage therapist Kanata Lakes will ask you about your health history, including previous injuries, allergies, and underlying health conditions (both physical and mental). Your therapist will also assess your overall health and ask you about your goals in seeking massage therapy (stress relief, injury rehabilitation, etc).
