Having played sports my entire life, I began seeing an RMT in my early teens. Not only did these treatments provide me with pain relief and improved performance, they helped me understand the direct connection between my physical body and my overall well-being. I graduated from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy, where I gained experience and skills to treat conditions of myofascial, neurological, and orthopaedic origins.

The massage I had was ok. The location is noisy due to the traffic outside on 4th ave.
But what really bothered me was the unprofessionalism from some of the therapists here. Miscommunication about booked online appointments led to me unfortunately missing appointments and being charged the full amount. I won't be returning here.

Tried this place after living nearby for so long, and I wasn't disappointed. It's tough to find a good RMT who has the right amount of strength and skill to treat neck & back pain.
Neck issues are especially tricky, as working in an office environment can really stiffen up your back and neck since you're in the same position for a long time. Susanna is great at her craft, as I found I was able to finally have some relief and get my range of motion back. Will be going back here as long as I need to.
The main con is some RMTs get booked up very fast, or their availability

Been going consistently for 2 months now. I see Susanna Meuling - highly recommend! All therapists work independently and rent a space there. The setting is a little dated but does the job, it is clean and simple. Susanna is approachable and understanding, intuitive and strong hands; and is experienced in active and hard working bodies. Only downside is that they only take cash or credit, no debit.

I really wanted to like this place, because the location is close, and I need massage therapy occasionally for recurring back problems. However, I had a really underwhelming first appointment. The massage therapist (whom I won't name) barely asked me any questions about my pain condition, the massage felt weak and superficial, it didn't provide relief to the problem areas, and I didn't get any advice or consultation about what I could do at home. My previous RMTs would always suggest specific stretches, check on my stretching technique, and follow up with modifications. This time

I showed up for my first appointment at 7:45 am to a locked door and no RMT. When I was able to reach the receptionist she advised me she would page my RMT and had me wait outside on the street until I called back 15 minutes later and re-explained the situation to a different receptionist.
The owner was put on the line and explained all RMTs are independently contracted and that she was unable to help in any way aside from continuing to call him. She was genuinely apologetic but not able to provide any solutions.
I left and am still waiting for any of them to contact me.

I have been coming here for ten months now since I've had my car accident. I was having major back and shoulder problems after my accident and found this clinic on Yelp. I must say, I'm really glad I found this place. Marcia has been my RMT since day one and has really helped me progress through my injury.
She is caring and attentive and really cares about my recovery. We go through a short consultation at the beginning of each visit to ensure she knows which areas may require more attention. I always feel better after each visit. She's really helped me to get to a better place

I've been going here for about 5 months now. Karmyn is simply amazing. I really like that she does a very deep massage. Yes it can be painful when she finds a knot, but you leave feeling so relaxed. The next day you feel like you survived a street fight but I take it as a sign that she really worked the muscles, and my back is recovering to a proper muscle alignment.
She is always on time, very efficient, and always very professional. She also listens to what areas have bothered you since you last saw her and adjusts her approach.

This was my first visit and Jocelyn exceeded my expectations! She is warm, knowledgable and extremely professional. She made me feel comfortable. She listened to my concerns and really worked on my troubled spots. I left feeling incredible. I highly recommend her... although, you need to book ahead as she is quite popular!

This clinic is quite nice and very clean. Appointments made easily online. My therapist was great and she listened to my needs and adjusted pressure when necessary. The price is $100 for an hour which is pretty standard. I've been twice now and have no complaints. I will try more therapists in the future to see how they are as well.

I was treated to going to this wonderful warm place. Coleen was my masseuse and she really takes care of her company that come through the door. She is a very warm hearted person and her energy is brought through in her therapy. I live in calgary but i plan on spending some time here. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting or living in vancouver.

I've decided to return after not going for a long time. I'm lazy and just like the car mechanic, I go for massage when i'm in pain (go to the garage when the car starts to make weird noises) :)
I always have the same therapist, Coleen, and she's great. She's been a massage therapist for 17 years and it shows. The personnel is very professional and courteous, the place is warm and welcoming. I lived in Kitsilano for two years and even if I moved away from that area, I really don't mind commuting to go back.
The prices are "reasonable" if you compare

I went here for a 1/2 hour massage after my back had been acting up from skiing and biking. The staff are very friendly and professional, and the masseuse who worked on me did an excellent job. even though i was the last client of the day, she worked hard on my back and didn't rush any of the treatment. my back feels a whole lot better than it did this morning. i would recommend these guys to anyone.
