Looking for a deep tissue massage near St. Albert? Our registered massage therapists (RMTs) in north-west Edmonton use slow, firm pressure to work into deeper layers of muscle, for people who carry a lot of tension or have long-standing tightness that a lighter massage does not reach.
Deep tissue massage should feel strong but not painful. Some areas may feel tender, which many people describe as a “good hurt”. Your RMT will check in with you, and you can ask for more or less pressure at any time. Tensing up against painful pressure actually makes the massage less effective.
It is normal to feel a little sore for a day or two, similar to after a workout. Drinking water, gentle movement, and a warm bath or shower can help.

Deep tissue describes the pressure: slow and firm. Therapeutic massage describes the goal: treating a specific problem. Many treatments use both. If you are not sure which to book, book therapeutic massage and tell your RMT you like firm pressure.
We recommend a prenatal massage instead, where your RMT uses safe positioning and pressure for pregnancy.
Yes, in most cases. All our massages are with registered massage therapists (RMTs), so most extended health plans cover them, and we direct bill most insurers. Some plans need a doctor’s referral, so check your plan first.
