What is Registered Massage Therapy?
Registered Massage Therapy, or RMT, is a specialized form of massage that is performed by a therapist who has undergone extensive education and training. Unlike regular massages, which may be performed by individuals without formal certification, RMT practitioners are licensed professionals who have completed rigorous coursework in anatomy, physiology, pathology, and hands-on clinical experience. This ensures they possess a comprehensive understanding of the human body and can tailor treatments to address specific health issues or injuries. RMT sessions are often covered by health insurance, given their recognized therapeutic benefits, and they focus on both relaxation and rehabilitation, distinguishing them from general massage techniques that primarily aim at relaxation.
Fees paid for an RMT session is covered by most extended health plans. We always recommend that you check your plan before you book your appointment. We offer direct billing for numerous insurance companies.
