Massage for Lower Back Pain in Edmonton

Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people book a massage. Long hours sitting, heavy lifting, standing jobs and stress can all leave the muscles of the lower back, hips and glutes tight and sore.

How massage therapy can help

A registered massage therapist (RMT) assesses where your pain is coming from and works on the muscles involved, often the lower back, hips, glutes and hamstrings. Many people find massage helps to:

• Ease muscle tightness and spasm
• Improve movement and flexibility
• Reduce stiffness from sitting or standing all day
• Relax the body and reduce stress, which often makes pain worse

Which massage to book

• Therapeutic massage: our most common choice for back pain
• Deep tissue massage: for long-standing tightness
• MVA massage: if your back pain followed a car accident

Not sure? Book a 60-minute therapeutic massage and your RMT will adjust the treatment to you.

Massage therapy is not a replacement for medical care. If your pain is severe, follows an injury, or comes with numbness, weakness, fever or loss of bladder or bowel control, please see a doctor first.
