Massage Therapy for Children & Teens

Massage therapy can be very beneficial for children and adolescents, particularly those involved in sports or experiencing rapid growth.

 

Children’s bodies are constantly developing. During periods of growth and activity, muscles can become tight, fatigued, or imbalanced. Massage therapy helps support the body by:

 

• relieving muscle tension

• improving flexibility and mobility

• supporting recovery after sports or physical activity

• helping with common growing pains

• encouraging body awareness and relaxation

 

Many extended health benefits plans cover massage therapy for children when provided by a Registered Massage Therapist.

 

Treatments for children are always adapted to their comfort level and developmental stage, and a parent or guardian is present when appropriate.
