Registered Massage Therapy
Registered Massage Therapy at Noble Naturopathic
Registered massage therapy is the assessment and treatment of soft tissues (muscles, tendons, connective tissue, ligaments) and joints to ameliorate and prevent physical dysfunction, injury and pain.
It can help to increase circulation to tissues, improve mobility of muscle and connective tissue, improve joint mobility, flexibility and overall musculoskeletal function.
Massage therapy is effective and beneficial for a wide array of conditions. Examples include but are not limited to:
- Back and neck pain
- Pre and postnatal care
- Post motor vehicle accident (MVA) injuries and pain
- Sports injuries
- Temporomandibular (TMJ) joint dysfunction
- Repetitive strains/sprains
- Tendonitis and impingement
- Headaches
- Muscle spasm and tension
With each client the RMT will provide an assessment, design a treatment plan and advise homecare unique to the patient.
A Note from Dr. Ming Mei Zhang ND RMT (our massage therapist):
“Massage therapy is a centuries-old practice that involves manipulating soft tissues to promote relaxation, relieve tension, and enhance overall well-being.
Through techniques like kneading and rubbing, massage therapists help reduce stress, alleviate pain, and improve circulation. Recognized for its holistic benefits, massage therapy is increasingly integrated into medical care to complement traditional treatments.
Ultimately, it offers a healing experience that nurtures both the body and the mind, fostering balance and vitality.” – Dr. Zhang
