Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to see a massage therapist in Ottawa?
No referral is needed to book with a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) in Canada. However, some insurance plans may require a doctor's referral for reimbursement.
How much does massage therapy cost in Ottawa?
A typical 60-minute RMT session costs $90-$140 depending on the city and clinic. Most employer health benefit plans cover massage therapy, often $500-$1,000 per year.
What's the difference between an RMT and a spa massage?
Registered Massage Therapists complete 2,200-3,000 hours of training and are regulated health professionals. They can treat injuries, chronic conditions, and issue insurance receipts. Spa massages focus on relaxation and may not be covered by insurance.
How often should I get a massage?
For chronic conditions: every 1-2 weeks initially, then monthly for maintenance. For general wellness: monthly is common. For athletic training: weekly during heavy training periods. Your RMT will recommend a frequency based on your needs.
Is massage therapy covered by provincial health insurance?
Most provinces do not cover massage therapy under their public health plan. Coverage typically comes through employer health benefits or private insurance. Check your plan details for coverage amounts and whether a referral is required.
