Community outreach

Massage Therapy, brought to you

 

Bring massage therapy directly to your workplace, event or community space.

As part of the Massage Therapy diploma program, our community outreach provides on-site massage therapy treatments in Calgary, delivered by massage therapy students under the supervision of experienced, practicing therapists.

It's a simple way to support wellness in your organization, while helping students gain hands-on experience.

In short: we come to you!

 

What is community outreach?

We partner with local organizations to offer chair massage and table massage treatments in a variety of settings.

Whether you are planning a wellness day or hosting an event, our outreach is flexible and easy to set up.

 

Types of massage therapy treatments available

Chair massage (seated)

  • Performed while seated on a massage chair, typically fully clothed and without oils.
  • Focuses on the neck, shoulders, back, and arms, providing fast, effective relief.

Table massage

Performed on a massage table, this type can be adapted based on preference:

  • Fully clothed: Uses gentle techniques without oils for relaxation and tension relief.
  • Partially undressed with oils/lotions: Allows deeper work on muscles for comprehensive therapeutic relief. Clients are draped for comfort and privacy.

 

Flexible for any workplace or event

Our outreach is designed to fit seamlessly into a wide range of environments, adapting to different spaces and needs. Examples include:

  • Workplace wellness days with 15-30 minute seated massage
  • One-time events like wellness fairs, conferences, or appreciation days
  • Sporting and athletic events
  • Healthcare, rehabilitation, and assisted living settings
  • Prenatal and family-focused care environments
Outreach can be a one-time event or a recurring experience, there’s no ongoing obligation.
