RMT Stephen Head owns and operates the business and is my favourite RMT in HRM! Stephen is friendly and professional. He has created a comfortable space and curated his staff to meet clients needs. He always makes sure I'm relaxed, warm enough and will even let me choose the music! After massages Stephem always makes recommendations on stretches, water intake and other helpful tips. Frequently they have offers on facebook or for last minute bookings but their prices are competitive, low enough to be below the reasonable customary charge as considered by Blue Cross and Sun Life medical plans. They can direct bill to most medical plans and uses an online booking system that emails reminders and confirmations, which are easy to cancel or reschedule. As an added bonus they offer aromatherapy with essential oils, customizing a scent to the mood you'd like or just using the oil you prefer. Downside for inaccessibility with the stairs to get to this second floor business but it's worth the hike.

I have been going to Massage Addict Spring Garden since the beginning of Covid and they have been…read morean amazing place of healing, connecting and general great, healthy treatments. I love that they are in my neighborhood and super flexible. Martin Morin is an RMT and Reiki practitioner who works with them and I have to give him a special recommendation - I am healing from some illness and his combination of deep tissue massage, Reiki and caring has been a huge part of my healing journey. I would recommend him highly for those of us healing and those of us who are just looking for a kick ass practitioner! He is a GEM!

Was looking for a good place to get a massage that was close to my work. I chose massage addict…read morebecause I'd been told it was a good place to get a cheap massage, but, as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. I didn't find out until after that this is a chain (the McDonalds of massages if you will). The receptionist wasn't very friendly or helpful and the masseuse also showed little to no personality. I felt very much like the next person on the conveyor belt. The masseuse just didn't seem very friendly, the environment was cold. None of the people there seemed to like being there. Just seemed like a bad work environment which was reflected in the attitudes of the staff. The massage was okay. It was a little heavy handed and since I was there for an injury I didn't feel like the masseuse spent the appropriate time assessing the injury itself or talking to me about the pain. Any other massage I've been to they've really assessed what was going on before starting which made me sort of feel like the therapist at massage addict didn't really know what she was doing. I'd recommend going to one of the many locally owned smaller massage businesses in town where the masseuse cares about their work because it's their business.
