Massage Matters

This place is amazing. They have an incredible promo deal for your first massage, which I strongly recommend checking out ($ 71 for a 90-​minute massage). Andre did an insane deep tissue attack all over me and worked out my trigger points (I’ve been on crutches for a long time with a hip injury and my whole body is a mess). I’ve had a tension headache nonstop for over a week that was gone by the time I left. And, maybe the sweetest part of all was that he gave me a few extra minutes because it was the end of his day and it took him so long to get through the trigger points in my back, neck, and legs. I’ve honestly never had treatment this good. I’ve been to a LOT of different therapists (physio, chiropractics, massage therapists galore, acupuncture), and Andre has done the most for my pain.

Very friendly place. My headaches are tough, treatments here helped to reduce the pain.

Just finished my first massage there today. Overall reviews:
— great addition to the neighborhood (I was looking for something nearby)
— both the introductory rate and membership rate is a deal, especially if you have massage benefits from work
— good customer service experience (I had Chelsea as my RMT)
Interesting note:
— You get to put in your own music if you want

It was by far one of the best deep tissue massage I have ever had! Ciara was excellent and worked on all my back issues. The atmosphere was great, but a little noisy, however the RMTs are great and will definitely go back and get their membership!

It is my 4^th time here and I have been to quite a few other places and have worked with quite a few RMTs in the past.
Pros: the RMTs are very good. I have pretty tense romboids traps and pec minors that need work, and I need the rmt to go deep into tissue. I highly recommend Nathan, he has great pressure: it absolutely hurts in a good way but of course you can tell him to use less pressure if you want, but usually my problem is the rmt cant generate enough pressure and just scratch the surface. And somehow I almost fell asleep during the massage, it was amazing. Ive worked with much more experienced RMTs at from resorts to goodlife, he is so far the best. Michael here is also very very good.
Cons:
A. front desk staff lack training, the contract they let you sign for membership is kind of weird: they have a bi monthly membership but they dont evem have a contract version for that. I refused to sign it until they corrected the terms on mine. Read what you have to sign. The lady that day was like oh it is OK we know what it means. Ummm, no, it is not OK to give me a wrong contract and tell me it is OK. It is unprofessional to even suggest that to me. A contract is a contract, either respect it or dont let me sign.
B. Price is on the higher end unless you agree to come every month, the price is 70 an hour which is good but not a lot of ppl have 840 dollars a year rmt coverage on their insurance. A lot of places in Toronto offer cheaper rate with no obligations needed.
All in all it is good but I am only here because of the great RMTs they have. No need to over hype.

A few weeks ago I had a particularly stressful week at work. my shoulders were all bunched up and tight, my wrists were strained and my shoulder started this new clicking action. I badly needed a massage.
I didn’t have an RMT in Toronto, so I just picked the highest rated massage clinic in my area, which happened to be Masage Matters and I gave them a call. They were so accomodating! I was calling mid– morning hoping against reason for an appointment that evening. The very friendly lady who picked up, said she would check with one of the therapists and call me back. Which she did and I was very happy to hear that one of their RMTs (Brittany) had agreed to sqeeze me in.
My first visit was great. They had a very affordable introductory offer, which included a complimentary add on. I chose the cold stone face massage, which was delightful. It kind of felt like Brittany was smoothing away my worries with small cool stones. I also got to select an aromatherapy concoction, which was lovely AND Brittany was all over the hot towels. no greasy massage oil residue to mess up my clothes. FYI: hot towels were super relaxing.
So the clinic is awesome! And Brittany is just the best. She is friendly, professional and down to earth. Totally made me feel comfortable and well cared for. She listened to my concerns and had me move around a bit so she could assess me. She found all my knots and worked them out like a pro. She has a really good sense of how much pressure to apply to be effective, while still keeping it pleasurable and relaxing. She checked in a few times to make sure the pressure was okay, which I think is so important.
I’ve had two treatments now and both times I left Massage Matters with a general sense of wellbeing. And I’m happy to report that my shoulders have returned to their natural position.
Looking forward to my next appointment :)

From the moment I walked in the doors I instantly felt like I would totally love the place. I believe the massage experience shouldn’t just all be about the time on the table but from the moment you walk in the door till you’re out the door should be the best experience ever. The receptionist was the most friendliest person ever and made you feel very welcome.
For my actual massage experience I booked a 60 minute session with Chelsea and it was the best massage I’ve ever had. She was super friendly too and did a great job on my lower back which has been bugging me for months.
Definitely will come back and they have a great membership deal if you commit to a year for only $ 69 for 1 hr once a month. Can’t find that price anywhere else.
Keep on smiling guys, customer service and the quality of the massage is the most important thing and you guys delivered!
Ps. Hope to have flavoured water when I come back ;)

I love being a member. $ 69 per hour is a great rate and the service is just priceless.
I can add special ad-​ons for a cheaper price. Foot scrubs are amazing when you are getting a massage. The therapists are all very friendly and professional — and good looking lol (clinic offers Botox as well). It is easy to book online and the clinic is a 10 minute walk from my house. The clinic employs critical thinkers who were able to fix an insurance mis-​billing without me having to call the insurer.
I love Taytum!
I look forward to more massages!

I’m so glad I found this place due to the Unilocal reviews. The place is so clean! The staff are amazing and I just had the best massage of my life. $ 45 for 1 hour massage, can’t be beat. I will be a client for life.

This is a very nice spa that I now visit on a regular basis. The staff and owners are polite and friendly, the masseurs are professional and extremely competent at what they do. The spa itself is located downstairs in an old historic building and is tastefully decorated with a cool colour scheme, contemporary artwork and exposed stone walls. It’s also nice and quiet; very conducive to a relaxing massage. Well recommended if you’re on the lookout for a new place to go to get those knotted muscles sorted out!

Found out about Massage Matters through Unilocal by luck. And boy am I glad that I did. Smooth reception and sweet people. You get awesome packages for first time visit or treatment which is great. Their prices are good compared to the service you get. The place is very clean.
Mike was my therapist. I believe it was one of the best professionl massges I ever got.
You gotta try this place out!

I went to massage matters for my first massage ever. I called in to booked an appointment on Thursday and the receptionist got me in Saturday afternoon.
When I got my confirmation email I found out I was with a guy. I was a little thrown off I wasn’t asked if I had a preference. I thought I may feel awkward and was a little nervous. When I got there the receptionist greater me warmly and I filled out some paper work. I got to choose a free enhancer and went with the face massage. I also really liked the fact that I got to choose my own essential oil sent out of 4. I didn’t have to wait long at all. My massage therapist was very professional and it turned out I didn’t feel awkward at all which was a huge relief.
I left feeling amazing and ended up booking another appointment for next month on the spot. I look forward to going back.
They also have a licensed chiropractor and acupuncturist on site as well.
Prices were very reasonable and that mint cucumber water was on point!

OMG Just had the most amazing massage at Massage Matters!!! I have been coming here since last year and the service has been amazing!
They have the 1 hour RMT massage for $ 45 with complimentary add on and aromatherapy, if you like the intro massage you can join for free (1 massage per month) to get the member price of $ 69per massage, and also they have chiropractor services at the location :)

The building that this business is in is amazing. When you walk into the reception area you are instantly impressed by the wood floors, the décor and the very efficient administrator.
I use the chiropractor services. The doctor spends his entire time working on you. Others seem to be more interested in selling you services and spend more time on that then actually treating you. His methods are very effective for myself.
They are right up to date and you can book on line if you want to. I also receive an email reminder of my appointment.
I highly recommend this business.

I came in with unbearable lower back pain and Dr. Lambrou was very patient with me. He took the time to ease my frustrations and pin point the cause of the pain providing me with chiropractic and acupuncture services. By the time I walked out of the clinic I was relieved and could properly walk again. Thank you so much Dr. Shaun for saving my day!!!

The search is over. This place really impressed me. I’ve been hesitantly trying a few RMTs in the area the last few years, and lucky me that the best one I’ve found is in the new clinic across the street.
Massage Matters is very clearly focussed on providing a warm atmosphere with excellent customer service. All of the staff were friendly and welcoming, you really do feel like a valued customer. The owner Shaun even came out to meet me because I had some questions about the chiropractor treatments.
Christina is absolutely my RMT from now on. Her bedside manner was professional but still warm and bubbly, which I find rare. I get severe headaches from muscle tension, and Christina is one of very few RMTs that has been able to alleviate that pain in one session.
Don’t be fooled by the introductory price of $ 45, this is not a discount service. This promotion is clearly offered so they can show you their very best, and I’m pretty sure you won’t be looking any further after you check this place out.

A lovely experience at Massage Matters — a brand new place in a historical building — that had an amazing $ 45 new customer promotion. I’m not a frequent flyer with massages — but my shoulder muscles were so improved by registered massage therapist Nathan’s work, I might become one! I was very pleased with my experience:
–got a confirmation email, and a reminder of my appointment
–rec’d a friendly welcome and tasty infused water (cucumber? Ginger? Lemon? Maybe I should be reviewing them on urbanspoon!) as I filled out the new customer forms — not too intrusive
–Nathan (RMT) had the best «bed-​side manner» of any of the massage therapists, physiotherapists etc that I’m ever worked with. He had excellent questions about my health and made certain that the massage was as «correcting» as I needed, in addition to being lovely and relaxing. I would definitely ask for him again.
All in all a lovely, therapeutic experience I’m likely to repeat!

Very professional and prices are competitive for the quality of the treatment. The chiropractor Shawn is excellent and I’ve had 2 great massages there as well. Highly recommended.

This place is a hidden gem! I live in the area and heard there was a new massage clinic opening around the corner. I decided to check it out and take advantage of their $ 45 for 60 min promo. I was super impressed and have been back twice since. It’s beautifully decorated and clean. The staff is super friendly and professional and you get a lot of little extras (I had a complimentary foot scrub on my first visit, aromatherapy, a small bag of epson salt as I was leaving, and even a little chocolate after my massage) It’s these little things that really enhance the overall experience. My massage therapist was great. He often checked in to see how I was doing and was very pleasant, professional and friendly! I would definitely recommend this place!

First reviewer woo hoo!
I just came back from Massage Matters and it’s a great place.
Let’s start with their fantastic Intro offer: A 1-​hour RMT massage for 45 bucks. Can’t beat that. You also get a complimentary add on (hot stone, cold towel-​face, peppermint foot) and aromatherapy.
Building is gorgeous. Lots of old brick, nicely decorated, lots of space. Staff were very friendly. Great downtown location at Adelaide and Jarvis. You can also easily book online.
My RMT was very friendly, always asked if everything was okay/​pressure/​heat, etc. Got a little chocolate too :) Good pressure, attentive to the spots I need work on.
What really intrigues me about this place is their membership. You can sign up for 12 massages (1/​mo) for a discounted price. They also have chiropractic memberships as well. Although I may not take advantage of the membership seeing as my benefits don’t cover massage and I can’t justify one massage a month, I would go back here again. If only they did a massage/​2-​month membership — I’d be all over that!
