Meet Michael Carlson, RMT
Michael has been a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) for nearly 14 years, working across a wide variety of settings—from multidisciplinary clinics, gyms, and spas, to running his own solo practice. No matter the environment, one thing has never changed: his genuine desire to help people.
A problem solver and educator at heart, Michael has taught massage therapy at two different colleges over the years and was recently invited to join the Program Advisory Committee for Conestoga College’s Massage Therapy program.
By combining his passions for education and patient care, Michael looks beyond short-term relief to find the root cause of pain and discomfort, promoting true healing and lasting improvement. He works individually with each patient to ensure treatment addresses their immediate needs, while providing home exercises and practical lifestyle adjustments to optimize their progress.
Michael believes that patients are the most important part of their own well-being. By educating and engaging his patients, he aims to empower them to take an active role in their journey toward a healthier, happier life.
His core focus is working the body and engaging the mind—combining Swedish massage, advanced manual techniques, and corrective exercise to restore balance and remind patients of their own power and agency.
