Welcome! My name is Jessica Marsh. I'm a Registered Massage Therapist in Halifax, Nova Scotia and this is a blog about my massage therapy practice. My treatment space is located in the Halifax Professional Centre, on the corner of Spring Garden Road and Robie Street.
If you want to book a massage therapy appointment, it's important to know you'll feel comfortable during your treatment and part of this involves feeling comfortable with your massage therapist as a person, not just as a practitioner. So have a look around my site to get a feel for who I am and what I do.
I have been a registered massage therapist (RMT) since 2000. My massage treatments give relief from pain due to specific injuries - like whiplash, tendinitis, headaches, low back or neck spasms - or my massage treatments can be for pure relaxation purposes, or a bit of both. I work with a combination of myofascial release, trigger point release, neuromuscular techniques and traditional Swedish massage. In 2000, I graduated from Northumberland College’s massage therapy program where I went on to teach for three years. I have worked at The Halifax Osteopathic Health Centre and at Eastwind Health Associates. I am registered with the Massage Therapists' Association of Nova Scotia (MTANS) and the Canadian Massage Therapist Alliance (CMTA). I am also First Aid/CPR certified. In addition to being a Massage Therapist, I am also an ex-Canada World Youth participant and the founder of (and a volunteer for) a public clinic that provides free alternative health care for people living on low incomes. I play recreational soccer and write short fiction and screenplays.
