Lymphatic Massage
Lymphatic drainage massage is a specialized, gentle technique that uses light rhythmic strokes to stimulate lymph flow. It reduces swelling, encourages detoxification and boosts immune function by removing excess fluid toward lymph nodes
Light pressure is used to prevent the collapsing of the delicate lymph vessels.
Rhythmic motion like stationary circles, pumping and scooping mimic the body’s natural lymph contraction through the muscle tissue to remove waste.
The benefits of lymphatic drainage are to improve symptoms of swelling in the arms, legs and feet caused by conditions like Lymphoma,diabetes or even just being on your feet all day.
Lymphatic drainage can also help calm the parasympathetic nervous system, providing deep and calming relaxation.
Ellen Brakel, RMT has been practicing Massage, Lymphatic drainage and Cranial Sacral Therapy for over 30 years.

Just had another amazing massage by Aaron Kaus. Aaron listens to what you want and delivers. Overall, I’ve had a great experience at Mountain Chiropractic Collingwood. Can’t wait for my next visit.

I was reminded again today that I should book and go see Dr. Shelley Adams as soon as something gets sore rather than waiting a few weeks and suffering 😉 Amazing insights and remarkable knowledge... highly recommend!

I had my first visit at Mountain Chiropractic and Natural Health and everything was amazing. The staff were friendly and timely and the care was second to none. My appointment was with Jennifer. She was genuine and real. The whole appointment felt centered around my care and the treatment felt purposeful and targeted. I would 100% recommend MCNH and would recommend Jennifer as well.

Went for my 1st massage with Irina 45mins… she was amazing.
She is very thoughtful, talented and clearly well-versed in her technique. I was extremely impressed with this massage and I have already booked in for the next month. Such a relief finally finding a great RMT in the area.
Well done Irina & thank you!

Where to begin? Firstly, I love that they auto-bill my insurance. Makes things so easy! Now the people - front desk staff are always lovely, Shelley is a fantastic chiropractor, and Aaron a master masseuse!
I've been seeing Shelley on and off for a few years now (for a chronic issue that requires regular maintenance), and she has helped me effectively manage pain flare-ups and improve my range of motion. She's an attentive listener and uses every tool in her toolkit to address each issue and treat it appropriately (not just spinal adjustments). She's friendly, efficient, knowledgeable, and a true professional! I also really appreciate the take-home tips for continuing to manage pain and movement between appointments. Thanks Shelley!
When Aaron came onboard at Mountain Chiropractic, it was just happenstance that I was scheduled in with him, as my previous masseuse at this location had moved on. And boy am I glad I got in to see him! I've seen many great masseuses over the years, but Aaron's approach is unique. He's obviously dedicated to his craft and his technique is highly individualized and adaptive to each issue at hand. He clearly cares about your progress and works to address the cause of pain and movement restriction. This isn't your average massage! My most recent visit was especially helpful, where Aaron was able to release a long held and exceptionally tight trigger point! I am decidedly un-"woo" but what he was able to do was serious magic! Highly highly recommend Aaron!

I started seeing Aaron Kaus RMT and have had more results in a few months with him than the past 5 years with many other RMTs! His approach is very holistic, educational and personalized. I appreciate his focus towards actually SOLVING my muscle issues rather than just treating symptoms. Every session is effective and PAINLESS. No more achy muscles after deep tissue massage, he resets everything and I walk out feeling great. He even worked on my TMJ issues and the relief was instant after suffering for as long as I can remember. I no longer have to go to physio for strain injuries, because nothing is getting strained anymore! I could go on and on. I recommend him to everyone.

I have seen Aaron for massage over the years and he is absolutely the best! I went recently after a car accident with hip and shoulder issues and he helped me out big time. He really knows his stuff. I also love how Aaron educated me on what going on with your body so you can really understand the issues. He sent me home with some small stretches and exercises to do, this also was a big help with my injuries. Thanks Aaron!!

This was the easiest 5 star I have ever given. Shelley Adam's and her staff are all such wonderful people. Shelley truly goes above and beyond for her clients. I was just raving about her today to a friend, when I thought, "I suppose I should write a review." Thank you Mountain Chiropractic!!!

I never give 5 stars. No one is perfect and there is always room for improvement. However, when it comes to the services and care I have received, I am not finding ways they could improve. For me, my experience with chiropractic care, and more recently massage care, has be positive. I was losing quality of life, unable to do activities I love. They heard me and helped me roll on. We’re still working on paddling on but I’m definitely going in the right direction with spine and muscle care. Highly recommend their services.

Such a great and friendly atmosphere. Always accommodating and able to find an appointment when needed.
Irina Neacsu is the best masseuse. My whole family goes there frequently for our health and self care needs.

My whole family receives monthly massages from Irina and we couldn’t be happier. She is especially great with my two small children who can’t wait for their treatments. She remembers all the little details about each of us and we always leave feeling lighter and more relaxed. Her later appointments are perfect for our busy schedules and there is nothing like a massage at 7pm and immediately putting on PJs for the ride home!

I had my first visit with Irina today and it was an amazing experience. She is a skilled massage therapist and truly knows how to get to the root of the problem. I was suffering from back and neck pain and she was able to relieve it better than anyone I've ever seen. Irina is also a warm and friendly person, making the whole experience very pleasant. The pressure she used was just right, leaving me feeling renewed and refreshed. I highly recommend Irina for anyone looking for an excellent massage therapist. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Wonderful team!! I was referred to by a friend and I am so thankful she did! Aaron is amazing at his practice, he is very thorough and wants to fix all of your problem spots. He makes you feel very comfortable and relaxed, he also explains how and why the problem spots are there. I would highly recommend Aaron to anyone who was in need of a massage!!!!!

Shelley is the ABSOLUTE best! I was so lucky when a friend referred me to her. She is both caring and competent. Two wonderful traits for medical practitioner! I had a bad experience many years ago and would not see a Chiro since. She has made me a believer now and she has relieved so much of my back pain.

Aaron has been helping me realign my back shoulders and neck ( which were a mess) working with me to correct old injuries from years of abuse snowboarding and surgeries. These injuries are now interfering with my golf game and daily life ….I am really impressed with the work Aaron has done so far and can’t wait to see the continuous improvements. I highly recommend Aaron if your body needs relief from massage as well if your looking to improve overall mobility.
