If you are looking for a registered massage therapist in order to get medical insurance coverage…read moreand reimbursement Oceana has limited options. Of their 7 therapists, only 1 is an RMT. Their certified bodyworkers charge the same rates as register massage therapist - $150 for 75 mins, $125 for 60 min massage. Normally certified bodyworkers at other establishments charge $80-$100 an hour. Example: Barefoot Oasis Spa 1 block away only charges $80 an hour. So while they are clean and professional, my qualm is that they are way over priced for bodywork service they provide. Tip: Make sure you shop around on price and quality.

First time visiting this place, during COVID, so they implement extra safety protocols, such as…read morefilling out a 3-question COVID related questionnaire, and everyone wear masks in the clinic at all time. When I reserved my time online, I typed in my email address incorrectly, so they called and let me know. I appreciated the reminder. When I met my therapist the first time, Michelle, she asked which part of my body needs attention, then had me stood up to check on my posture and providing feedback. The evaluation was very short, so she could start working on me. Once I was on the massage table, Michelle started working, her voice was calm while guiding me to take deep breathes. She made very little conversation during the session so I can relax, but she did point out on the major issue on my body that is causing problems, so I can notice. Michelle's massage technic was exceptional, very solidly strong but gentle, not the kind that dig into the muscles causing pain, her pressure was very consistent throughout the session. She used forearm pressure instead of the elbow to apply more pressure, I appreciated that because the pressure from the forearm is more gentle comparing to sharp pressure from elbow. Michelle used very little oil so I wasn't all greased up at the end. She had a good playlist with more loungey Jazz lo-beat music than those water running zen music makes me wana go pee all the time. It's best to call the clinic to make reservation if you like to book with Michelle, since her schedule changes. The receptionist was very helpful when booking my next appointment. I look forward to my next session.

When speaking with her I noticed she seemed a bit out of her body as though she maybe had had too much coffee or something, she was not grounded and present. We spoke for a bit then as instructed I laid face down on the table and she went to my right lower leg to move it and pulled it sideways in the opposite direction it naturally goes - I felt a warm sensation and knew in that moment something was wrong. For two months after that my right knee was in pain whenever I would walk anywhere. That was a few years ago, and I still at times upon walking too much (not often but it still happens) I feel there is a pocket of air in my right knee or very extremely subtle discomfort. I'm very grateful it's so very subtle, but it's still there when it wasn't at all before I went to see this practitioner. I didn't even go in for my legs or knees, it was for my spine. It just felt like it was sloppy service which has resulted in some sort of permanent injury. A reminder to anyone who reads this - if you notice any practitioner you meet does not seem present and in their body, cancel the appointment. Even if you're in the room. That is your right and okay to do. Not in a mean way, be kind about it but do what you feel you need to do.

Kevin has been a tremendous help with overcoming a nagging sports injury, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for massage therapy. Highly recommended!

They were able to fit me in right away and after a year's worth of massages to solve my soft tissue damage issue, I remain a loyal client. The office is very clean, the staff is extremely friendly, and they are never running behind. The prices they charge are no more than the recommended fees set out my their regulatory body which means you are getting great value. The therapists are professional and really listen to your needs and concerns. I am still a monthly client of Lionel's 3.5 years later and I would recommend him to everyone.

All the staff here are really sweet, and the space has a relaxing vibe. I've had massages by a few practitioners here, all of which had very different styles of massage. So if you find someone you like, make sure you request them again. I would definitely stay away from certain ones next time, as their massage style didn't work for me. Overall I would recommend Healing Tree. I should also mention they have a great online booking system, it makes booking a massage so easy and quick!

When I asked why they didn't contact me to clarify before charging they said they had my credit card on file (which was the only way to book the apt). What? Very poor customer service. Do not recommend. EDIT: management says issues were addressed? All they said before was that the second insurance needed the ID - of which was clearly on the info provided and which was only after charges without notification were done. Sorry no. Review is as it actually happened.

On Dec.16, my partner received a cancellation email and voice message just ONE hour before the…read moreappointment saying the massage therapist was sick. The receptionist proposed a rescheduled date, but it didn't work for my partner. Rather than try to find a solution that would work, she opted to forego any attempt at customer service and simply said "there is nothing we can do." When my partner again tried to find a reasonable solution, the receptionist lacked the training or ability to deal with situation in a mature way, and chose to hang up mid-call. To call such action unprofessional would be an understatement. The reason to cancel the appoint is totally understandable, but a qualified receptionist with even the most basic customer service skills would attempt to come up with a feasible alternative to suit the customer, especially since there would have been an $80+GST cancelling fee if my partner would have been the one who had cancelled. Any professional organization that has high standards for their customers should also have high standards for themselves, but sadly, those standards seemed nonexistent. So one star for the unprofessional customer service, and hopefully the staff will receive the basic training required to engage with customers in a professional manner in the future. I have a coming appointment on 18th, hopefully they won't cancel it before the last minute. I will leave another comment after that. ---------------------------------------------------- Dec.17 update Yesterday I confirmed my booking politely through the phone, and this morning I also received the confirmation email. However, I received the cancellation email later afternoon, 24 hours before the appointment. I was expecting they may prove themselves by providing great service this time. But in fact, they just proved how unprofessional they are instead AGAIN.

He addresses the issues I raised and made sure he spend a lot of time on the issue. I recommended it to my spouse and he had a good experience as well. I can highly recommend Shem! I also had a massage with Woo and he is also good. I will also recommend Woo. I booked Joanne for my acupuncture and again she is the best acupuncture I had. She started understanding my health condition with a lot of good question and check my pulse and everything. Then she started my treatment with deep pressure points that was the best part of my treatment and then use the needles. I never had an acupuncture that takes time to really understand your body and never rush the treatment like Joanne. I felt really good instantly after and have booked her again and again. I highly recommend Joanne for your acupuncture needs!

I thought the RMT was great, with good technique, concentrating on my shoulders and neck as requested. It was a great swedish style massage with good pressure. He was very chatty, but in a pleasant way and I enjoyed hearing about his entrepreneur story. The clinic was new and was clean and tidy and I liked the convenient online booking process which sent me a reminder text the day before. The only reason for a 3 star review (otherwise would have been 4 stars) is that my time was cut short a little over 5 mins I did get there early but the massage still started a bit late, and ended a bit early. Not a huge deal but sometimes with massages, just getting the exact time you're allotted is a bit of a minimum expectation. A good place to have on the roster and I would definitely consider returning!
