What is an RMT? 

A Registered Massage Therapist is an individual who is registered with the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario (CMTO) in accordance with the Regulated Health Professionals Act and the Massage Therapy Act. 

​

RMTs assess and treat physical dysfunction and pain of the soft tissue and joints of the body, mostly by hands-­on manipulation.

Assessment and treatment can include orthopaedic and neurological testing, soft tissue manipulation (Swedish massage is the most commonly used technique), hydrotherapy, remedial exercise programs and client education programs.  Our RMT here at Bayview North Family Chiropractic practices various techniques to customize your care and ensure treatments are safe and appropriate for you.  

​

Some techniques our RMT uses are : 

• Deep Tissue​

• Trigger Point Therapy

• Sports Massage
