What we do
A registered massage therapist (RMT) works on the muscles and soft tissue driving your pain and tension, easing tightness and improving how the area moves. At Azalea it most often runs alongside physiotherapy in one plan, so the massage and the hands-on rehabilitation reinforce each other instead of pulling in different directions.
Treatment is tailored to what your assessment finds, not a fixed routine. Your therapist works on the areas actually holding tension and restriction, and where a problem needs more than massage to resolve, the physiotherapy and rehabilitation team is already in the same building, working from the same notes.
Is this you?
- Tight, aching muscles that will not settle on their own.
- Tension headaches, a stiff neck, or a tight back from desk work or training.
- You want massage that works with your recovery, not separately from it.
- You are managing a long-standing issue and want to ease the tension between treatment sessions.
Your first visit
Most patients leave knowing exactly what is wrong, what is going to fix it, and roughly how long it should take.
A short assessment
Your therapist asks what is bothering you and where, and checks the areas of tension and restriction before treatment begins.
A plan for the session
You agree on what to focus on and the pressure that suits you, so the treatment matches what your body needs that day.
Treatment
Hands-on massage targets the muscles and soft tissue driving your pain and tension, at a pace and pressure that works for you.
Coordinated with your care
If physiotherapy or another discipline would help the result hold, your therapist flags it and the team builds it into one plan.

Have another question? Call (604) 281-3345- What does a registered massage therapist treat?
- An RMT treats muscle tension, soft-tissue pain, and the tightness that builds up from injury, training, or daily strain. At Azalea it is often used alongside physiotherapy, so the massage eases the tension while the rehabilitation rebuilds strength and movement.
- Do I need a referral for massage therapy?
- No. You can book massage therapy directly in BC. Some extended health plans ask for a physician referral before they reimburse, so it is worth checking your own policy first.
- Do you direct-bill massage therapy?
- Yes, to most major extended health plans that include registered massage therapy. You pay only the portion your plan does not cover, and our insurance page lists the providers we bill.
- How long is a massage session?
- Sessions run 30, 45, or 60 minutes. Your therapist can help you choose based on the area being treated and what you are dealing with.
