Sports massage at W11 Therapy is a targeted therapeutic appointment for athletes and active individuals. Our CCHPBC-licensed RMTs may combine deep tissue techniques, stretching, trigger point therapy, and neuromuscular work based on your assessment, sport, training load, and goals. People commonly book for training-related soreness, injury-related concerns, mobility limits, or event preparation. W11 Therapy is at 1520 W 11th Ave, two blocks from Broadway and Granville.
There is no separate sports massage booking: book a massage session for the length you want (30 to 90 minutes; 60 is suggested for a first visit) and tell your RMT about your sport, training and any event dates at the start.
Sports massage is built around your sport, training phase and event dates - lighter and quicker before events, deeper between training blocks - and often includes stretching and trigger point work. Deep tissue massage uses slow, sustained, firmer pressure on long-standing tension. In practice the two overlap, and your RMT can combine them in one session.
Sports massage at W11 Therapy is performed by RMTs and may be eligible under extended health benefit plans (Sun Life, Manulife, Pacific Blue Cross, Green Shield, Canada Life) and ICBC. We direct-bill when the plan or claim allows it.
