Massage is the art of introducing subtle changes to the body through the application of controlled and sustained pressure. A massage therapist uses various parts of his or her body and/or external devices to elicit relaxation, healing, and relief of stress for his or her patient. At Oncare Wellness Richmond Hill acupuncture and massage clinic, we pride ourselves on offering one of the best in-house massage therapy services to all of our patients in Richmond Hill, Ontario. When performed regularly, this type of therapy has a very wide range of benefits that can be both instantaneous and ongoing.
We have fully registered and licensed massage therapists (RMT) with extensive clinical experience ready to serve. All of our RMTs have undergone extensive training and are in complete compliance with the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991 (RHPA), the Massage Therapy Act, 1991, as well as all other government legislation surrounding the standards of practice for massage therapists. We offer massages to a wide variety of patients from all walks of life. In the past, we have treated athletes, patients with disabilities, and people of various ages and gender backgrounds. We believe in the healing power of massage therapy. When you receive a good massage, it is able to reduce the neuromusculoskeletal stress on your body and prevent gradual reduction in physical performance.
Here at Oncare Wellness Clinic, we offer massage therapy to increase relaxation of tense muscles and Chinese Tui Na to improve the flow of Qi for all of our patients. Typically, a massage can be wet or dry depending on the way it is administered. Unlike chiropractic therapy, massage often uses essential oils and aromatic lotions to accentuate its healing effects, a practice seen in many different parts of the world. We only use the best essential oils and the best equipment for our practice. When done right, a good massage will help increase vasodilation and drainage of lymph in strategic areas. We are also able to improve blood flow in various parts of the body where it’s needed. Damaged muscles, blocked sinuses, impaired circulation, and slow healing can all benefit from a good session of massage therapy. Its calming effect has been widely appreciated, along with its use in combating depression. It improves sleep, reduces headaches, improves immune function, and enhances flexibility. After all, it is non-invasive, conservative and safe. From Muhammad Ali to Arnold Schwarzenegger, everyone has experienced the beauty and simplicity of massage. If you are looking for a massage clinic in Richmond Hill, or if you are simply looking to relax after a long day of work, don’t hesitate to give our Richmond Hill massage clinic a call. We look forward to helping you and your body heal from its stresses.

There are several different styles of moxibustion therapy, ranging from direct moxibustion to indirect moxibustion.

At our clinic, we use tempered glass cups to conduct fire cupping therapy. Similar to our moxibustion therapy, we do not allow the flame to touch our patients. Instead, cupping therapy is conducted only when the cups have cooled significantly, to elicit their desired effects while avoiding any type of burn.
