Which Treatment is Best?

Remember that not every person will benefit from the same treatment. While you may find hot stone massages work for you, another person may prefer deep tissue. Every person experiences muscle pain and stiffness differently. At Therapeutic Body Concepts, we want to treat your pain as effectively and comfortably as possible.

Our registered massage therapists are trained to tailor every session to meet your needs. When you book, simply tell us what you need worked on, whether it’s your lower back, shoulders, or legs. From there, we can set you up with the treatment and therapist that will work best for you.Do you suffer from chronic pain or stress? We have a health option to help you get back on track. Our location for massage therapy in west Edmonton is open 7 days a week to help you feel your best.

Deep Tissue Massage

If you find yourself suffering from chronic pain and muscle soreness, you likely need deep tissue work to experience full relief. During the session, your therapist will really work through your muscles, applying firm pressure to reach deep into your muscles and help relieve pain. This sort of deep pressure means you may feel sore or tender for the next day or two, but the end results are pain-free relaxation. Deep tissue is best for people who suffer from:

  • Chronic pains
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Headaches
  • Muscles spasms
  • Back pain
  • Respiratory conditions
  • Pre- and post-natal pregnancy pain
  • Sports injuries

If you find you’re in any pain during your session, be sure to tell your therapist so they can adjust their methods to suit your needs and comfort.

Relaxation / Swedish Massage

When you want to have an afternoon to relax and destress, visit Therapeutic Body Concepts in Edmonton. Our relaxation massage techniques will give you a massage that is deeply calming, thereby increasing your mental health and wellness. When life gets busy, all you need is to take an afternoon to yourself to experience a calming afternoon where you can relax and feel comfortable.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is believed to help relieve pain and treat diseases by restoring the normal flow of energy through the body.

Couples Massage

Are you and your significant other looking for a great way to relax and bond? During a couples massage we focus on providing both people with a total body experience that leaves you feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, and deeply connected to your partner. And, if you don’t want to share this experience with your significant other, you can also share it with any of your loved ones. Feel free to bring a relative or friend out to enjoy some stress-free time spent healing and relaxing.

Sports Massage

If you’re an athlete, you may find that typical, untargeted deep tissue massages are ineffective in helping you heal. That’s why we offer treatments focused specifically on helping athletes. These treatments are essentially deep tissue massages focused on certain areas of the body in order to help:

• Improve performance
• Prevent injury
• Promote healing

When you come in, make sure to speak with your therapist about your specific needs. This way they can focus on the areas you need to help promote your healing and strength.

Hot Stone Massage

Similar to deep tissue, hot stone massages work deeply in the muscle to help alleviate chronic pains. The difference here lies in the use of the hot stones. Smooth, flat stones are heated and placed along your back. The heat and weight of the stones causes your muscles to relax, allowing the therapist to reach even deeper into your muscles without the same pressure as deep tissue. Your therapist may also use the stones as an active part of the massage, moving them up and down your muscles to help you relax even further.

Thai

Unlike the other services we offer, Thai massage uses a form of passive stretching to relax and release pressure in the body. During the process, you’ll lie on a mat while your therapist moves and stretches your body using their own body weight. This helps stimulate the energy lines in your body in order to:

• Promote healing
• Promote balance
• Increase flexibility
• Relieve stiffness

This treatment isn’t typically recommended if you’re new to massages, but if you’re looking for a different experience that has long-lasting results, it comes with many unique benefits.

RAPID

RAPID NeuroFascial Reset (N.R.F.) is a newer movement based therapeutic technique that focuses on the central nervous systems in order to release tension and constraint within muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves.

Pregnancy

Expectant moms experience unique physical and emotional changes that occur as a result of increased weight, shifting posture, and adjusting hormone levels.

Reflexology

Reflexology is an ancient Chinese technique that uses pressure-point massage on the feet to restore the flow of energy throughout the entire body.

Cupping

Cupping is an ancient Chinese form of massage therapy where glass, plastic, or bamboo cups are used to create suction on the skin’s surface. This mobilizes blood flow and allows for a deeper release during the massage.

Jade Stone Massage

Jade stone is a semi-precious stone that is valued most in China. It is ranked above all types of rare gemstones and metals by the Chinese.

There are two types of Jade – Nephrite and Jadeite. Jadeite is the gemstone used in jewelry and Nephrite is the type of Jade used in massage.

Jade has been known to relax the nervous system, and aid in the removal of toxins. Because of this, it is used in various different cultures over thousands of years including the Egyptians and Mayans.

Myofascial Release

“Myo-” means muscle and “fascial” is “a band or sheet of connective tissue, primarily collagen, beneath the skin that attaches, stabilizes, encloses, and separates muscles and other internal organs.” Fascia connects, supports and protects each of your muscles and internal structures. This connective tissue is densely woven around your entire body to connect everything from your head to your toes. Myofascial Release is a treatment to release the tension and stress on your Myofascial tissues.

Lymphatic Drainage

The LDT detects the rhythm, direction, and quality of the lymph then using gentle techniques guides the fluid to the best possible pathway for drainage. An effective treatment after injury or illness.

Tui Na Chinese Massage

Tuina works on the energy channels and points, using the same principles as acupuncture except that the hands and fingers are used instead of needles

Kinesiology Taping

In the past decade Kinesiology Taping has become more prevalent. The original elastic adhesive tape, now known as Kinesio Tape (KT), was developed by Dr. Kenzo Kase in 1979. The tape itself is hypoallergenic, latex-free, and can be worn for days at a time. Kinesio Taping became more popular during the 2008 Summer Olympics. It was donated to over 58 countries and was worn by very well-known athletes.
