This is Fanshawe's student massage therapy clinic, and I have had nothing but great experiences here!
I had my first massage here a few months back and I was incredibly nervous because I didn't know what to expect, but once I arrived, all the staff were so incredibly nice and welcoming.
My masseuse walked me through everything, and gave me an assessment (free assessment before your first appointment), and it was great learning about my body structure.
The actual massage was 45 minutes and only $12! ($12 for Fanshawe staff, student and alumnae, $25 for general public) - no tax no tip. The clinic is also very professional, and ask for consent for everything.
A few things to recognize:
- Massages are given in one big room with hospital curtains creating separate spaces, and around 10 people can get a massage all at once. In other words, you can hear people walk and talk during your massage (not as relaxing compared to a regular massage clinic)
- The lights are very bright, and since it's 1 large room, there's no way to dim the lights or turn them off
- Their hours of operation are quite short, and sometimes booking can be difficult.
Overall, I love the Mend Massage Clinic and I would recommend this clinic to anyone. The staff are very friendly and professional, it's not the most elegant clinic but it'll leave you feeling relaxed and welcomed. read more
