Many people regard massage as a luxurious treat, when, in fact, it is a powerful therapeutic tool. Therapy and luxury become one during a massage as the physiological effects, the relaxation response and the human touch combine to influence healing at many levels. Hands On health care has operated out of the Leslie St. plaza in Newmarket since May of 1994.

Services
Pregnancy massage helps focus on the special needs of the mother-to-be as her body goes through the dramatic changes of the child-bearing experience. Massage during pregnancy helps to provide emotional support and nurturing touch and can provide much needed relaxation. It relieves stress on the weight-bearing joints (low back, pelvis, hips and ankles) and reduces neck and back pain caused by muscle imbalance and weakness.
Massage therapy is not paid for by OHIP, but is covered by many Extended Health Care Insurance programs (check at your place of employment). Doctors often prescribe massage therapy, but since Massage Therapists are primary practitioners, it is not necessary to have a referral unless required by your insurance policy.

I have been going here for years. Great, friendly staff. Very clean. Cassandra listens to your concerns about your aches and pains and then customizes a plan with you. I have gone through arthritis pains and 3 joint replacements and Cassandra has helped me through all the discomfort. You are not just a number to them. They personally care about your well being.

Nancy Hewitt has been my massage therapist for many years and has been a life saver! She listens to my concerns and helps to alleviate my back pain as well as show me techniques to work on at home. She is also very accommodating with her appointments. I am very thankful for the ongoing care that Nancy provides.
