In green, progressive cities, such as Toronto, Ontario, cycling is a dominant mode of transportation – as a result, cycling-related injuries are extremely common. Luckily, problems such as muscle tightness, fatigue, neck strain, lower back tension, and knee pain can all be treated with registered massage therapy (RMT).

Precisely because of the high number of bike-enthusiasts, finding the right RMT is a relatively effortless endeavor, especially in the sprawling area of downtown Toronto; one easily could locate, for instance, a massage therapist on the Danforth – but not just any RMT, but rather, one with the skills and experience needed to deal specifically with cycling-induced pain. While many people in the Toronto area enjoy cycling as a form of stress relief, roadside accidents or simply the wear-and-tear of the body can quickly become the source of one’s stress; no longer is the joy of the open road enough to keep one going.

Indeed, stress can impact people in radically different ways. Be it the dread of a heavy workload or the physical tension resulting from the repetitive motion of cycling, these discomforts will invariably lead to a bodily deterioration requiring some kind of intervention. In vast, hectic cities – where thousands of cyclists are in a rush, traveling to and fro jobs. In the unfortunate case that one does receive or develop a cycling-related injury, it’s almost always best to deal with this kind of pain through the near-magic of registered massage therapy, which is useful not only as a means of relaxing after a long day of commuting across the hot pavement, but as a mode of healing.

If you have chronic pain, for example, a deep tissue massage can be precisely the procedure required to feel better. A deep tissue massage will help relax the deepest, hard to access muscles, as well as the softest and most vulnerable tissues of your body – especially the ones used while cycling. The massage therapist will use just the right amount of pressure to offer a personalized massage that will give you the best results.

People with jobs that incite stressful mental fatigue, such as accounting, or physically demanding jobs like warehouse or factory work, certainly benefit from visits to a registered massage therapist. Many employee insurance plans cover massage therapy and it is estimated that nearly 75% of patients use workplace benefits to fully or partially cover massage therapy. But even without paid benefits, it’s likely that a visit or two could provide exactly what your body needs, so you won’t have to excessively invest in RMT. For those able to make regular visits, regular relaxation massages tense muscles and promote good sleeping habits. More than that, massage therapy can boost one’s immune system, easing the worry of taking time off from work because one is sick.

No doubt, massage therapy has many benefits; whatever your need may be, the hands-on expertise of registered massage therapists will have your back – pun intended – and you’ll be able to cycle again in no time at all.
