Massage Therapy • 188 Spadina
Recovery that goes deeper than the surface.
Registered massage therapy at LYV is a clinical service — integrated with your care, not separate from it.
Not a luxury. A clinical tool.
There is a version of massage therapy that exists purely for relaxation. That is not what LYV offers — though what we offer is deeply restorative.
Registered massage therapy at LYV is coordinated with your physiotherapy progress, your chiropractic care, your kinesiologist's movement program. Your massage therapist knows where you are in your care journey, and what the tissue needs at this moment.
The result is treatment that feels unhurried and intentional — because it is.
Your First Visit
What your first appointment looks like.
Intake and Assessment
Your massage therapist will take a detailed intake before your first session — understanding your history, your goals, and where you are in any concurrent care.
The Treatment
Sessions are adapted to your presentation. Deep tissue work, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, Swedish technique — your therapist selects the approach that serves your body at this visit, not a fixed menu.
Post-Session Guidance
You'll leave with clear guidance on what to do next — hydration, movement, rest, and when to return. Nothing vague.

Meet your Massage Therapist
Priya Nair
Priya Nair, RMT
Massage Therapist
Priya approaches massage therapy the way a good editor approaches a manuscript — she's looking for what doesn't belong, what's been held too long, what the tissue is bracing against. Her sessions are quiet and deliberate. Patients often say they didn't realize how much they were carrying until it wasn't there anymore.
She works primarily in deep tissue and myofascial release, with a strong focus on stress-related holding patterns and the physical cost of how most people spend their days. Before she treats, she asks. What's going on, how long it's been going on, and what you've already tried.
At LYV, Priya works closely with the physiotherapy and chiropractic team — she sees her role as preparing the tissue for the work that comes next, and supporting the recovery that follows it.
