Do I have to choose a technique before scheduling an appointment?
Not at all. All you need to do is book an appointment with one of our Registered Massage Therapists. During your session, your RMT will create a tailored plan of various techniques designed around your specific needs.
This is my first massage – what can I expect?
Firstly, good for you! Here are some notes about getting started at Knead.
- Please fill out your intake form online prior to your appointment time (it will be emailed to you directly).
- You are welcome to wear relaxed clothing, or come as you are.
- Enter the clinic a few moments early to check in with reception.
- After you check in, your RMT will join you shortly to guide you to the treatment room.
- Your RMT will go over your intake form with you. You will both have time to ask questions and get a clear idea of what will be taking place during your session.
- You and your RMT will discuss what clothing may need to be removed, and how to get on the table.
- Each treatment includes an interview/assessment, hands-on treatment, and there may be a few minutes at the end of the session to go over some homecare exercises.

What happens if I need to cancel an appointment?
We understand that you may sometimes need to cancel your appointment, so we’ve tried to make our cancellation policy simple.
Our policy depends on how much notice you provide:
- Provide 24+ hours notice and there is no charge for cancelling your appointment
- Provide less than 24 hours notice and we charge $30 fee for the missed appointment
- Provide less than 2 hours notice OR don’t show up and we charge 100% of the cost of the missed appointment
We encourage you to use our online booking calendar to book, reschedule, or cancel your appointments.
You cannot cancel or reschedule online if your appointment is less than 24 hours away. Please call the clinic at 250-753-6322 instead.

Is massage therapy covered under my health plan?
