Terra Massage Boutique located in Yorkville on Collier St. near Yonge is a RMT-owned massage business offering a variety of treatments (therapeutic, facial, Brazilian lymphatic drainage, and pregnancy). The space, located on the 2nd floor (there are stairs to navigate so it is not fully accessible), has a spa-like feel. The interior has limewashed walls giving it an earthy and relaxing feel. I actually heard about Terra Massage on social media and was curious to try their services as I heard great things about the treatments.
Booking an appointment online is easy and the website is simple to navigate. I opted for a 60 min therapeutic massage. You are able to request for a gender specific RMT as well as a conversation free treatment session. Prior to the massage you also fill in an intake form where you can specify your level of pressure you want (I opted for deep!) as well as any problem areas you want the RMT to work on.
I arrived at Terra Massage Boutique 10 min before my appointment. You do have to take off your shoes at the door but they provide slippers in 3 different sizes for you. There are shoe cubbies and everything is clearly labeled. The waiting room isn't terribly big but it does feel zen-like and relaxing. You check in with staff upon entering where you're offered water. The washroom is also super cute as well with little details throughout. The amazing thing is that the toilet seat is also heated!
In terms of my massage, I had Danica as my RMT. At the beginning we talked about what areas I wanted her to work on (which I also wrote in my intake form). During the massage she mainly worked on those specific problem areas and she did a great job. The deep pressure was spot on and I could feel her working on my deep knots. She definitely relieved some tension in my problem areas and felt more relaxed and looser after the treatment.
Overall, great new massage place near Yorkville! It is easily accessible by car or public transportation. The space is relaxing and spa-like and my massage was great. Pricing for their treatments is on the reasonable side. Will definitely return for more treatments in the future! read more
