TREATMENTS

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.
