MASSAGE THERAPY SERVICES

Ancestral Therapeutics provides therapeutic massages, also known as deep tissue massage to our clients in Edmonton.  The deep tissue massage goes below superficial connective tissue with the intent of breaking up old structural patterns,  allowing the free flow of nutrients and oxygen in the blood. Deep tissue massage is used to treat muscle and tendon injuries, pain, and stiffness in your muscle groups and joints.

A relaxation massage is the perfect way to treat yourself when you are feeling stressed out. Think long, smooth,  gliding strokes that are flowing and rhythmic. Here at Ancestral Therapeutics, your relaxation massage is designed to soothe and unwind both your body and your mind.

A complementary form of healing which emphasizes the interralationship between structure and function of the body. Using a subtle, hands on technique, it aims to restore function in the body by treating the root causes of pain and imbalance.
