Priya Venkataraman
Registered Massage Therapist
Priya checks in about pressure throughout, and is a good fit if you have never had a massage and feel unsure about it.
What to expect on your first visit
No referral needed. Wear something you can move in, and bring your benefits card.
Arrive ten minutes early
A short form on a tablet, and we sort out your direct billing at the desk.
Talk it through
Your practitioner asks what brought you in, what you have tried, and what you want to get back to.
Assessment and treatment
They explain what they are checking before they check it, and ask before any hands-on work.
Leave with a plan
A clear next step, a few exercises if they suit you, and no pressure to prebook a package.
What patients tell us
“Maren explained what she was looking for before she touched anything. No physio had ever done that with me.”
“They handled the insurance at the front desk. I did not fill in a single claim form.”
“Ninety minutes with Priya and I never once felt rushed toward the door.”
