MORE THAN RELAXATION
Massage Therapy Built Around What Your Body Needs
Registered Massage Therapy is more than simply working on tight muscles. Your care begins with understanding where you feel discomfort, what movements or activities aggravate it and whether soft tissues or joints may be contributing to the problem.
Treatment is then adapted to your needs, whether you are managing ongoing muscle tension, recovering from an injury or trying to move more comfortably through work, exercise and everyday activities.
UNDERSTANDING YOUR CARE
How Registered Massage Therapy Can Help
RMT care uses hands-on treatment to address muscles, connective tissues and related joint restrictions that may contribute to pain, tightness or difficulty moving comfortably. Treatment is selected after considering your symptoms, health history and treatment goals.
Registered Massage Therapy can be used on its own or alongside physiotherapy when both services are appropriate for your rehabilitation needs.
Personalized Assessment
Your Registered Massage Therapist reviews your symptoms, relevant health history and movement concerns before deciding which areas should be addressed during treatment.
Hands-On Treatment
Treatment may include soft-tissue techniques, joint mobilization and other manual approaches selected according to your assessment findings and comfort.
Practical Follow-Up
Your RMT may provide movement, stretching or self-management guidance to help you manage symptoms and support progress between appointments.
COMMON REASONS TO BOOK
When Registered Massage Therapy May Be Helpful
People book massage therapy for different reasons, from persistent muscle tightness to discomfort that develops after work, training or an injury. Your treatment is adapted to the areas involved and how your symptoms affect everyday movement.

FAQs
Common questions about Sports Physiotherapy
Does Cold Laser Therapy hurt?
Not at all. Most patients feel a gentle warmth on the skin — some feel nothing at all. There's no heat damage, no cutting and no needles, so you can go right back to your day afterward.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on what we're treating. Some patients notice a difference after the first cold laser session, while stubborn injuries or arthritis often need a handful of visits. Your physiotherapist will map out a realistic plan on day one.
Do I need a doctor's referral to book?
Nope — no referral needed. You can book Cold Laser Therapy in Coquitlam directly with ActiLife online or over the phone, and get in as early as this week.
Is Cold Laser Therapy covered by insurance?
In most cases, yes. Because it's delivered as part of a physiotherapy visit, most extended health plans cover it. We direct bill most major insurers and accept ICBC claims to keep the paperwork off your plate.
