Massage Therapy Awareness Week
October 23-29, 2022
This week, from October 23-29, we're helping to celebrate the diverse ways that massage therapy can help people get back to doing what they love!
Massage therapy for back pain:
80% of people will experience back pain in their lifetime, and back pain is a common reason for work absence. Massage therapy can help people with back pain relieve their pain and improve their function, ultimately helping them return to work to the job they love.
Massage therapy for chronic pain:
Chronic pain can prevent people from participating in their activities of daily living, which can include: personal hygiene, dressing, or just walking around at home. Massage therapy can help reduce chronic pain and improve physical function.
Massage therapy for recovering from sports injuries:
Whether you’re a professional athlete or just like to enjoy your favourite sport on weekends, to everything in between, sports can lead to musculoskeletal pain or injury that can take you out of the game you love. Massage therapy can help treat sports-related pain and injury and get you back in the game.
Massage therapy for keeping up with the kids:
If you have kids, grandkids, or other important children in your life, you’ll want to be able to keep up with them! However, active play can often put a strain on your body. Massage therapy can help relieve that pain and help you keep up with the active kids in your life.
Massage therapy for keeping up with chores:
Whether it’s raking the leaves, dusting, or organizing, many chores involve repetitive motions and can leave you feeling sore for days afterwards. Massage therapy can help relieve the back pain and other types of musculoskeletal pain that can come from overdoing it with chores, and help you do what you need to do around the house pain-free.
Massage therapy for age-related pain:
Muscle and joint pain, especially persistent pain, is common in seniors. It can be caused by osteoarthritis or other chronic conditions, but also can be caused by injury or overuse, or may have no known cause. If you’re experiencing aches and pains as you age, your RMT can help you find relief and get you back to activities you enjoyed when you were younger.
Massage therapy for stress:
Stress can have a variety of physical symptoms including musculoskeletal pain. This can include, but is not limited to: low back pain, shoulder pain, neck pain, as well as chronic pain in general. Massage therapy can relieve the physical pain associated with stress as well as help get you back to living a life less impacted by stress.
Let's all make a commitment to our bodies and minds. We're here to help and get you to the best version of yourself! If you're experiencing aches, pain, stress or recovering from injury, we've got your back today and everyday!
