Massage therapy and chiro...where to?

[G-ZUS]

The massage therapist I used to go to at Panther moved back to Montreal, so Im on the look out for a new RMT. I want someone who will use their fists/elbows/knees not a weak ass normal massage. Also looking for a good chiropractor. Want something in the NE area.

Anyone?

Still looking for a decent massage therapist. My last one sucked a fat one

If you went to Panther Sports Med before, why not continue going to them?

The owners are physiotherapists, and while I can't comment on their massages/chiro, the physio I got for a busted knee was great.

Call up their other locations and ask to speak to their RMT's, ask them how they massage, and if it sounds aggressive enough for you, book an apt.

There's one on Country Village Rd, and another on Marlboro Way

Otherwise, Google search for RMT's gives a ton of results.

Personally I really like Chinook Chiropractic and Massage. I have been going there for a while. The deep tissue massage is pretty intense the first time, but after, you grow to like a good massage.

I went to Total Wellness or some shit its in Lifemark Physiotherapy in the NE, garbage massage. I asked for deep tissue and their version of deep tissue is poking you, then she said I couldn't handle it. So I went to hitman massage in whitehorn, older afghani gentleman owns and runs it. He does give a good deep tissue massage that doesn't involve poking you till you squirm.

LOL Chinook gives a massage that you might not be able to handle. Not a place to go for relaxation massages.

Whatever you do just avoid Riverside Sports Therapy, in Parkdale... not gonna attack a specific doc but all I'm gonna say is, got a whole lot worse after a few sessions... I'd say avoid chiropractors altogether, their meal tickets are based on repeat business, so really, what do they gain by getting it right the first time?:dunno:

rome wasn't built in a day.. what makes you think that posture or joint pain or whatever it is can be fixed by a chiropractor in a single visit?

I had over a dozen visits... to no avail. I gave it a fair shot. I'm getting an MRI on Tuesday and that will decide my next course of action for treatment.
