What to expect during your Student Massage appointment:
If you’re dealing with general aches, repetitive strain, or simply want to relax and de-stress, a Student Massage at our Downtown Edmonton clinic near Millennium Place is a great choice.
Your appointment will begin with a brief assessment. Your student therapist will review your health history and discuss any concerns or goals you’d like to address. You’ll then undress to your own comfort level and lie under the linens on the table.
During your massage, the therapist may use a variety of techniques such as light to deep tissue work, soft tissue release, myofascial release, joint mobilization, PNF stretching, muscle energy techniques, hydrotherapy, and more.
It’s normal to feel some tenderness with deeper pressure, especially in areas of tension. Communication is key—let your therapist know how the pressure feels so adjustments can be made. Not every issue requires deep work, and your therapist is trained to identify what approach is best for you.
If your goal is relaxation, your therapist will focus on steady, flowing techniques designed to calm the body and mind. Breathing deeply can enhance the benefits, and your therapist may also include aromatherapy or other relaxation methods.
After your massage, you’ll likely feel relaxed and refreshed. Drink plenty of water to help your body recover. Your therapist may also suggest simple stretches, self-care techniques, or follow-up appointments to support your progress and keep you on track.
Other things you should know about your Student Massage appointment:
Our student massage therapists are licensed and registered but not yet able to issue receipts for direct billing. Because of this, most benefits plans will not cover student treatments. Please check with your provider for details.
If you’re visiting our Downtown Edmonton clinic near Millennium Place for a Student Massage, here are a few things to keep in mind:
Arrive a little early – Plan to come a few minutes before your appointment. This gives you time to complete any paperwork and settle in before your session begins.
Eat light before your massage – A heavy meal can make it harder to relax, while an empty stomach might leave you lightheaded. A light meal an hour or two before your appointment is best.
Stay hydrated – Drink water before and after your massage to help your body recover, flush out toxins, and reduce soreness.
Dress comfortably – Depending on your treatment, you may be asked to undress to your comfort level. Loose, easy-to-move-in clothing is always a good choice.
Communicate openly – Let your therapist know how you’re feeling during the massage. Sharing feedback helps them adjust pressure and techniques so you get the most benefit.
Give yourself recovery time – After your appointment, allow your body to rest. Avoid intense exercise right away and give yourself time to relax.
Follow aftercare advice – Your therapist may suggest stretches, exercises, or self-care tips to support your recovery and keep you feeling your best.

Frequently Asked Question
A student massage is a therapeutic session provided by a massage therapy student who is in training and working toward certification. Sessions follow clear treatment plans, focus on your goals, and are supervised or reviewed by an instructor or registered therapist to ensure quality and safety.
Yes. Students are taught proper assessment, pressure control, and professional draping from day one. They work within their scope, check in about pressure, and adjust techniques to keep you comfortable. If anything feels off, say so and they will modify right away.
Expect a little more time spent on assessment and note taking, and a pace that may be slower as the student practices techniques. The hands-on work is still focused and therapeutic, and you should leave feeling looser and more relaxed. If you need advanced or complex treatment, we can help you choose the best fit.
