Massage and emotional counsel takes place in a safe, therapeutic environment. All our staff are trusted, educated and caring individuals who have personally been through the process of healing from sexual assault

Cynthia at Edmonton Therapeutic Massage gently guided me through their multi-faceted program of healing from sexual assault. It was not a walk in the park as it challenged some very closely held beliefs that I held about myself and my role in the attack. As a transgendered male I have had a hard time finding safe and caring health care providers, and Edmonton Therapeutic Massage took the time and effort to get to know me and heal my scars (both physical holding patterns and learning to trust again)

I never thought I would live through sexual assault. I was a leading realtor and married to a very successful man. Then I was attacked showing a house at work and my world shattered. I couldn’t work full time, I couldn’t show houses, I didn’t want to go into the office because it felt unsafe. Edmonton Therapeutic Massage was referred to me by one of my clients and I went for massage and used all of the referrals that Cynthia suggested to be able to heal. I am now back at the top of the real estate game here in Edmonton and volunteer for teaching self defence classes to other women who are in jobs where they might be alone
with men.

Edmonton Therapeutic Massage helped me to put words to my feelings and physical/emotional holding patterns after ongoing Domestic Violence by my live in boyfriend. Cynthia and her referral partners helped me to leave him and get back to living a safe life free of abuse. I have seen her for over 6 years on a regular basis (monthly) and I’ve seen the progress I’ve made by having a group of people in my corner who are rooting for me to succeed and put my past behind me

Edmonton Therapeutic Massage was a god send in my healing process. I am a refugee that was abused by soldiers in my home country. I didn’t have a lot of resources in terms of who I turn to. Cynthia and her referral partners helped me to build a strong tool box to deal with PTSD from rape and war. I really didn’t like massage at first because I was ticklish all the time but as we started to get to know each other and I started to not have to protect myself, I started to feel better and not have nightmares and flashbacks and sleep through the night for the first time in almost a decade
