Registered Massage Therapists in Ontario
Accepting New Clients

1 verified registered massage therapist found across Ontario

Registered Massage Therapists (RMTs) in Ontario are regulated by the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario (CMTO). Ontario was the first Canadian province to regulate massage therapy, and its RMTs complete a minimum of 2,200 hours of approved training before registration. CMTO-registered RMTs can provide therapeutic massage for musculoskeletal conditions, pain management, stress relief, injury rehabilitation, and prenatal care.

Massage therapy sessions in Ontario typically run 30, 60, or 90 minutes. Fees range from approximately $80 to $160 per hour. Unlike many health services, RMT treatments are commonly covered by extended health benefit plans — most major insurers (Manulife, Sun Life, Blue Cross, Canada Life) cover a portion of RMT fees annually.

HealIn lists only verified, CMTO-registered massage therapists across Ontario who are currently accepting new clients.
