Services
Deep Tissue Massage
Targeting deeper muscle layers, this service alleviates chronic pain and stiffness from repetitive strain or sedentary lifestyles. Using precise pressure techniques, it improves flexibility, reduces inflammation, and addresses postural imbalances. Ideal for desk workers, athletes, and injury recovery patients seeking long-term relief.
Myofascial Release
This technique gently stretches connective tissue to relieve pain caused by fascial restrictions. By restoring normal alignment, it enhances mobility, reduces nerve compression, and improves circulation. Particularly effective for fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and post-surgical scar tissue rehabilitation.
Sports Massage
Customized for active individuals, this service combines Swedish and deep tissue methods to prevent injuries, enhance performance, and accelerate recovery. Pre-event sessions boost circulation, while post-event treatments reduce muscle soreness and metabolic waste buildup through targeted manipulation.
Wellness Guidance
Personalized lifestyle programs integrate nutrition advice, exercise routines, and stress management techniques. This service empowers clients to maintain treatment benefits through sustainable habits, addressing root causes of chronic conditions rather than just symptoms.
Relaxation Massage
Gentle rhythmic strokes promote mental calmness and physical rejuvenation. This service reduces cortisol levels, improves sleep quality, and boosts immune function through parasympathetic nervous system activation, ideal for stress-related conditions.

I have a lot of pain and immobility issues with my shoulder and knee and Todd has an amazing way of choosing the right technique to alleviate both. His years of experience and education are evident and I always leave a session in a euphoric mood. I certainly recommend Todd to anyone looking for meaningful and effective treatment.

Todds casual yet deliberate and thoughtful approach to his practice is evident. He brings the required knowledge of an RMT to the table coupled with his extensive athletic background and way of life. He cares about his clients. Todd also practices what he says which is a sign of his integrity. Get ready for some good atmospheric playlists too!

Todd has been my RMT For over10 years. He is a great RMT with good level if knowledge about the body and understanding how to use sports massage techniques to relieve and heal my back pain caused by sitting too long in front of a computer and exercising. He is also very professional RMT who is personable, friendly and listens to his patients.

I have been going to Todd for many years. I am a landscaper so quite often get back related injuries...and Todd always has me fixed up and back to work in no time. I have tried going to physiotherapy, but it is always Todd who gets me back up on my feet. Todd is kind and professional and always makes you feel at ease. I would recommend Todd to anyone who has a muscle related injury. Ps..it is probably going to hurt. Lol But in a good way.

Todd is the BEST massage therapist I've ever been treated by. He is an excellent RMT and able to thoroughly assess and address my therapeutic needs. He's been doing so for nearly two decades.

Todd was recommended by my daughter in 2013, and he has been my RMT ever since. His service is professional and yet personal, and after each visit - which is now scheduled at regular intervals - I leave feeling restored in both body and spirit. Todd's care after a total hip replacement was excellent, and my speedy recovery was definitely due to the easing of muscle spasms I experienced post surgery. I highly recommend Todd Smith as I believe his massage therapy and genuine care for his patients is THE BEST !
