Massage therapy is a holistic and therapeutic treatment essential to establishing and maintaining a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Due to the hectic yet stationary environment in today's workplace, muscle fibres tend to contract and shorten leading to acute and/or chronic pain and stiffening in joints, back and major muscle groups.
Prior to treatment, one of our professionally trained and accredited massage therapists will review your health history and perform a short assessment in order to determine the most beneficial treatment for your individual needs. Hands On Massage Therapy's registered massage therapists are trained to ensure an atmosphere of safety and privacy during every session.
We are located in a beautiful character building in the inner city community of Victoria Park. We are within easy walking distance of Calgary's downtown core and the facilities at Calgary Stampede Park. The location provides easy access to major traffic corridors and light rail transit. Conveniently located 3 blocks south of the City Hall C-train stop, and 4 blocks northwest of the Victoria Park / Stampede stop.
You are encouraged to undress to your level of comfort. It is much more beneficial to apply massage techniques directly to the skin and massage therapists are required to drape you with a sheet so they only expose the portion of your body on which you are receiving treatment.
It is possible to work on a client who is partially/ fully dressed; although this will limit the type of techniques the therapist can use and the depth of treatment you may receive.Your choice will always be respected and you will never be made to feel uncomfortable.

Our Registered Massage Therapists are all members of a national, accredited massage therapy association and have passed all competency tests to qualify for insurance claims. RMTs have high educational standards. All of our therapists have completed extensive training in pathology, neurology, anatomy, remedial exercises, kinesiology, physiology, and clinical sciences.

I've tested out a lot of massage locations in Calgary and I found Hands On Massage to be the best! Their owner Tammy is one of the nicest people you will ever meet! Their price is very reasonable and their staff is courteous and professional. Even during covid times, I always felt safe to get a massage from Hands On.
Both my wife and I have been seeing Lisa Chepil as our therapist for a few years now. She is friendly, professional, and most importantly, an expert in her field. I get a lot of neck/shoulder pain from computer work but Lisa always fixes me right up! She's a lifesaver! Thank You Lisa

Clean, quaint and quality! I have REALLY tight shoulder muscles from sitting all day at work. Ashley has been very helpful at releasing tension and asking what I need. This is not an overly fancy location, so if you are down to earth and looking for a relaxing massage by a professional, this is a great option! It is central and easy to get to, it is clean and the service is top notch!

Tammy was so kind and supportive. This was my first ever massage, and usually I don't really like people touching my body, however, after a car accident I knew I had to go in. Tammy made me feel so safe and relaxed, I've been so anxious following this accident and after leaving the massage I feel the best I've felt in over two weeks. Highly recommend. The clinic is small, but is still a very clean and relaxing environment.

I went to Andrew to have my first ever massage. I was very anxious and quite uncomfortable before we started. Well, Andrew was great! He made me feel comfortable and welcome. Plus, the massage was awesome! I feel great and I'm definitely going back. I highly recommend!

As an active young person, I've been ignoring my body for years until I had too many aches and sores impacting my day to day.
Found hands on massage therapy and its great reviews! So I went to see Andrew and he did not disappoint. I saw a noticeable difference after just the first session. He is very knowledgeable and showed me at home or in the gym habits to start to help my body even more.
I recently had my second visit and he is a very down to earth gentlemen and anyone whose having body aches or issues, I would highly reccomend Andrew to anyone as I'm sure he can most likely help!
