Therapeutic care, delivered at home

Comfort and Relief
Gentle techniques ease muscle pain, stiffness, and tension, and support better circulation and sleep, in the client's own space.
Nurse-Led Coordination
Our nursing team reviews each client's health history and coordinates the massage plan with the broader care team.
No Clinic Travel
The registered massage therapist comes to the client's home, retirement residence, or long-term care setting, on a schedule that works.

Part of a complete care plan
In-home massage therapy works alongside the wider support our team provides. Our nursing staff review the client's health history before sessions begin and stay involved as needs change. If a client also receives physiotherapy services, the two disciplines are coordinated so treatment goals align.
To arrange a session, start with a free in-home assessment. A member of our team will visit, learn about the client's goals and health history, and build a plan that fits.

Frequently asked questions
What does in-home massage therapy for seniors help with?
In-home massage therapy can help seniors manage chronic muscle pain and stiffness, reduce anxiety, improve circulation, support better sleep, ease arthritis-related joint discomfort, and aid recovery after surgery or a period of reduced activity. The therapist adapts techniques to each client's health history and comfort level.
Is massage therapy safe for frail or elderly clients?
Yes, with proper assessment. Before sessions begin, our care team reviews the client's health history, medications, and any conditions that require a modified approach. Therapists use lighter pressure and adapted techniques for clients who are frail, have osteoporosis, or have other health considerations. The nursing team remains available throughout.
Do you bring the table and equipment to the home?
Yes. The registered massage therapist arrives with a portable massage table and all necessary supplies. Clients do not need to provide any equipment or travel anywhere.
How long is a massage therapy session?
Sessions are typically 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the client's goals and tolerance. Shorter sessions can be arranged for clients who fatigue quickly. Duration is reviewed and adjusted as the care plan evolves.
Can massage therapy help with arthritis or poor circulation?
Yes. Gentle massage can reduce stiffness and pain around arthritic joints and support circulation in clients with reduced mobility. Techniques are selected to avoid aggravating inflamed joints and are always tailored to the client's current condition.
