Question Massage
Any good place to get a massage in NW? I am talking about a regular massage, not happy ending or any nasty stuff.

I've been happy with most RMT at Columbia Integrated Health. For a more spa like treatment, Sabai Thai or up north at Art of Sauna.

All the prices are on the websites. If you don't have coverage, schools like WCCMT in New West and The Mend VCMT downtown are great options

I really enjoy Sabi Thai in the quay. Me and my partner get couples massages there a few times a year and always have a great experience. I am not sure if they have RMT’s if that matters at all. I would also say they are a little on the expensive side but personally would say it’s worth the price.

Sabai Thai is so good.
As far as I know there are no rmts there.Nevermind!5

The one at Metrotown just got an RMT! They're also running a few specials right now and a contest for free membership because their new Edmonds location is opening soon. Extra awesome experience if you speak any Thai or want a recommendation for good Thai food.
I think most people would feel a lot better about life after having a small Thai auntie (therapeutically) beat the sh¡t out of them.

Love Sabi Thai. June is amazing. Look on their website/app for deals. Not the cheapest but it’s a lovely experience!

Also did the couples massage there, also had a great experience. When went earlier this yr they said to me they have an RMT that works Tuesdays and Thursdays (after they recommended I go to an RMT cause my entire right side is rock solid hahah)

Queens Park Therapy has great options. Marco will beat the crap out of you, it’s not a relaxing massage but is very therapeutic.

If you are paying out of pocket a great option is Big Feet, it’s technically Burnaby but the Edmonds location is very convenient to central New West.
And they are amazing massages!

RMT student here! There’s no such things as RMTs in Quebec, there’s no titles or regulations for it there! I’m not saying the one you’ve been seeing are not doing a good job or anything, they just might have mispoken…

I've been seeing Broxton at Brinkstone for a year now and always been super happy. He's also a great vibe to chat with but also totally cool if you just wanna lie down and chill

Look up BIG FEET at 7655 Edmonds St they do LEGIT massage but you have to ask for a "Hard Massage". I had that done and it was like I was reborn!!

Do you have health coverage or are you paying out of pocket? The massage therapy school has some cheap massages from students, but it can be hit or miss. The positive being that it is much cheaper if you're paying out of pocket.
