Moncton's Professional Massage Therapy Team
Registered Massage Therapist (RMT)
In massage therapy, a skilled licensed Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) will assess and manipulate the soft tissues of your body – muscle, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and skin. Your massage therapist uses varying degrees of pressure and movement throughout the session. One of the initial effects of massage is a sensation of deep relaxation and peace. This feeling occurs because massage encourages the release of endorphins - the brain chemicals (neurotransmitters) that produce sensations of wellbeing.

Massage Therapy Facts
- Massage is possibly the most ancient type of medical therapy. Egyptian tomb paintings depict individuals receiving massages. (That is almost 6000 years ago!)
- A 60-minute massage provides your body with the equivalent of 7-8 hours of sleep.
- Bob Hope, who received daily massages as part of his health routine and survived to the age of 100, had daily massages as part of his health regimen.
- Massage and touch both promote the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers.
- Massage therapy promotes lymph flow throughout the body, alleviating aches, pains, and flu-like symptoms.
- Our skin contains roughly 5 million touch receptors, 3000 of which are located on the tip of a finger.
- Any healthy contact slows the pulse rate and may help lower blood pressure.
- Regularly massaged office workers are more attentive, perform better, and are less stressed than non-massaged office workers.
- Your skin is the body's largest organ. Massage helps to nourish and soften your skin, as well as aids in its detoxification.
