FAQs

  • Your 60-minute appointment begins with a brief health history review and a focused assessment to better understand your concerns and goals. This helps guide a treatment plan that is safe and specific to your needs.

    Whenever possible, the majority of the session is dedicated to hands-on treatment. However, depending on your presentation, time may also be spent on assessment and movement testing to ensure the treatment is appropriate and effective.

    Homecare recommendations may also be provided to support your progress between sessions, such as exercises, stretches, or self-management strategies.

  • Yes, I bill to Pacific Blue Cross, Greenshield, Medavie Blue Cross, Sunlife, Canada Life, and most major insurers. Feel free to email me if you want to confirm I can bill to your provider at kimthermt@gmail.com.

  • At this time, I do not provide treatment under ICBC claims. If you've been involved in a motor vehicle accident, you may wish to contact a clinic that offers ICBC-approved treatment.

  • No, you do not have to fully undress. You should only remove clothing to your level of comfort. You will always be properly draped with sheets and only the area being treated will be uncovered. Treatments can also be done through clothing if preferred. Your comfort and privacy are always respected.

  • Massage therapy may help with muscle tension, pain, movement restrictions, headaches, and injuries. This can include overuse and postural strain, sports and gym-related injuries, and discomfort related to daily activities or work.

    Common examples include sprains and strains, post-surgical recovery, shoulder conditions such as frozen shoulder, knee-related issues, nerve irritation such as carpal tunnel or sciatic symptoms, and general muscle tightness associated with movement or posture.

  • Effective treatment does not require high levels of pain. Pressure is adjusted based on your comfort, symptoms, and treatment goals. While some areas may be tender, especially with injury or chronic tension, treatment should remain within a tolerable range and be guided by ongoing feedback.

  • The fee is $140 for a 60 minute session.

    Kim is amazing! She really thinks outside the box, focusing on areas I’d never have connected to my pain. She specializes in deep tissue massage and uses techniques I haven’t experienced with other RMTs. Kim has been a huge part of my recovery after an accident, and before that, she helped me manage tension and strain from sports and long hours at a desk. I can’t recommend her enough!

    I can’t recommend Kim Taylor highly enough! She is truly an excellent massage therapist. She always applies the right amount of pressure and has an incredible ability to target the muscles that need the most attention. She listens to your needs and checks in to make sure you’re comfortable throughout the session. Her communication is clear and caring, and I always leave feeling rejuvenated.

    I highly recommend Kim. Long hours at a desk left me tense and tight, and she made a real difference. She is knowledgeable, professional, and takes the time to understand your needs. Her approach and attention to detail relieved much of my muscle tension. I left feeling lighter, more mobile, and relaxed. If you want an RMT who cares and delivers results, Kim is the one to see.

    I just had my second massage session with Kim, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From the moment I arrived, she made me feel completely at ease. The experience was both relaxing and therapeutic. I came in with some lingering tension in my shoulders and lower back, and Kim was very attentive to my needs, focusing on the areas that needed the most attention. I could feel the difference immediately after the session, and I’ve been much more mobile and pain-free since then.

    Kim is hands down(!) the best massage therapist I've ever had. Lovely relaxing ambiance in the room and she has that perfect mix of welcoming friendliness and savvy to read when you prefer a chat or quiet. Her skill is second to none and getting a treatment from Kim is like an oasis in my day. 5 stars+
