At West Henday Physical Therapy, massage therapy isn’t just about relaxing—it’s about helping your body move, heal, and feel better. Whether it’s everyday tension, recovery after an injury, or chronic discomfort, massage therapy in Edmonton at West Henday Physical Therapy is here to support your well-being with care that matches your needs.
If you’ve ever asked yourself:
✔ Why do my neck and back feel tight all the time?
✔ Can massage help with my posture or alignment?
✔ Is it safe to get a massage during pregnancy?
✔ I’ve had surgery or an injury. Can massage support my recovery?
We hear questions like these every day, and the answer is often yes. We’re here to walk you through how massage therapy fits into your recovery, comfort, and health goals—right here in Edmonton.
Every massage therapy session begins with a conversation. We take time to understand your pain points, movement challenges, and physical goals. From there, we tailor your treatment to target what matters most to you whether that’s easing muscle tightness, improving alignment, or simply finding relief after a long week.
Here’s what to expect:
You’ll be welcomed into a private treatment space where you can relax without distractions. We’ll position you comfortably on the massage table and ensure you’re supported throughout the session.
No one-size-fits-all treatment here. We choose techniques based on your needs—whether it’s deeper pressure, gentler strokes, or specific muscle focus. We adjust everything, including the pressure, so you’re always comfortable.
We offer simple guidance after your session—whether it’s hydration tips, gentle movement suggestions, or advice on what to do between visits to keep your progress going.
Ideal for general muscle tension, stress, or recovery, this type of massage helps ease stiffness, improve circulation, and support your overall physical wellness. It’s a great starting point if you're not sure what type of massage you need.
Structured to target deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue, this massage is helpful for long-standing tightness, old injuries, and areas that feel particularly “stuck.” It’s often used for lower back tension, tight shoulders, or sore legs after physical activity.
Fascia is the connective tissue(link) that wraps around your muscles and joints. When it tightens up, you feel restricted and uncomfortable. Myofascial release uses gentle pressure to free up this tissue, improving mobility and easing pain.
This light-touch massage helps move fluid through your lymphatic system, reducing swelling and supporting the body’s natural detox process. We often use this technique after injury, surgery, or illness when swelling is a concern.
Pregnancy can bring all kinds of physical discomfort—from low back pain to sore feet. Our prenatal massage sessions are specifically tailored to support expecting mothers, with safe positioning and gentle techniques that help reduce stress, relieve aches, and support better sleep.
Many people come to us after trying stretches, exercises, or even medications that didn’t quite work. Massage therapy can be helpful if you’re dealing with:
If you’re unsure whether massage therapy is the right fit, we’re happy to talk through your concerns and help you decide.
At West Henday Physical Therapy, massage therapy is more than just a moment of relaxation—it’s a meaningful part of your healing journey.
What sets us apart is how we seamlessly blend massage therapy into your overall care plan. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing daily stress, or simply looking to feel better in your body, we tailor each session to reflect your goals, your lifestyle, and how your body responds over time.
Before we begin any treatment, we take time to understand why you’ve come in—not just what hurts. Whether it’s tension from long workdays, soreness from a past injury, or something deeper like chronic pain or swelling, we ask the right questions and tune in to how your body responds. There’s no one-size-fits-all here.
What makes our approach unique is our integration with physiotherapy. If you’re already seeing one of our physiotherapists, your massage therapist works alongside them to ensure that your sessions complement your treatment plan. This means faster progress, fewer setbacks, and a more complete recovery.
For new clients, we offer stand-alone massage therapy or blend it with movement-based care when needed. Whether it’s helping you loosen up before exercise or calming the muscles down afterward, massage becomes a meaningful part of your physical wellness.
From room setup to pressure levels, your comfort is always a priority. We check in during your session and adjust as needed because your body’s needs might change, even from one visit to the next. You’re always in control of your care.
Our therapists look beyond isolated symptoms. We take into account posture, alignment, stress levels, daily habits, and more—because lasting results come from treating the body as a whole.
Massage therapy at West Henday isn’t a quick fix. It’s thoughtful, personalized, and part of something bigger—your journey to better movement, better comfort, and better quality of life.
