Incredible! The sign-in and reception pre massage was smooth and covid friendly-- mainly online. The therapist (male) who saw me was nice and very quickly got into all the nicks and aches all over my body, applying pressure to all the right spots. Especially for those with bad posture, sore legs, back, etc. you owe it to yourself to try and get a massage from Holmestead!

Wonderful experience. Treat yourself to a massage. It is worth every moment. Tanya is exceptional.

I have been going to this clinic for awhile now and it's usually a mediocre experience. Today I met Lisa for a massage. I was pleasantly surprised at her professionalism and massage skills. It was the best massage there so far. She even followed up showing me some exercises that I can do to help. I was impressed.

I attended the school at Thai Massage Toronto and received my certification to practice Thai massage. Prior to choosing to study there, I did my research on other Thai massage schools in Toronto. Their website was easy to navigate, I received a response instantly in terms of questions and I felt they were the most knowledgeable. Currently, I am a practitioner and I still attend additional levels at the school to advance my skill set. Deanna Villa is an excellent teacher. She is totally in her element when she is teaching. They got to give and receive massage from the techniques learnt, so they really understood and felt what was being taught. I would highly recommend anyone thinking of practicing Thai massage to go to Thai Massage Toronto!
Robin Taylor
TMT school is well located, well appointed and very good about answering questions clearly and promptly. And then there is Deanna! Wonderful instructor, well planned Level 1 course and her energy and care makes you want to keep coming back. Just signed up for Level 2.

Sweet Trinidad & Tobago
I am currently enrolled in the Health & Fitness Trainer Diploma at Bryan College. The experience for me so far has been phenomenal. My admissions officer Amanda and all the other staff has been so nice to me. They have a great way of making you feel comfortable and at home, which is important to me because I am an international student. The program thus far has exceeded my expectations. Bryan College is one of the best choices Ive made. I am a proud student of this school.

If you value questioning over obedience, quality over quantity in education, and adaptation over set-sequences, you’re in the right spot.
In choosing navina for your manual therapy education, you will experience more than just the physical shapes of thai massage. Touch becomes more than just a tool – it becomes a language that you step into learning, practicing and refining. It becomes a social value rather than something you keep isolated to treatment times.

In-Person Courses, Online Courses, Virtual Studio

I had a fantastic 90 minute treatment with Drew and highly recommend this business to anyone who is interested in Thai Massage and particularly, the Navina spin on it. The space is calm, clean and beautiful. Drew is professional, kind and extremely good at what he does. There is a reason Navina is so successful and why people want to train and work with it's founder. As an RMT and a fan of all things bodywork-related, I can honestly say that this was the best treat I could have given myself today.

This school is the best school in Toronto. The staff are amazing. They have the answers to any question you may have. The owner is involved in every aspect of the business but above all the teachers are excellent. I audited a few online classes and every teacher was excellent. Not only did they have a phenomenal knowledge base but they were caring and compassionate and truly inspiring
Lisa Greenbaum
I have been coming to this clinic for years. The therapists are all uniquely gifted and incredible at what they do. Front desk staff are lovely and welcoming and they are really going above and beyond to create a safe environment right now. I've also registered for the TCM Theory course this January! So grateful it is online. I have been looking to deepen my knowledge in this field for quite some time and can't wait to dive in.

There was a communication mistake on my part with transaction but she immediately took care of it with calmness and confident. There is such an inviting atmosphere in this space. Over all, my experience from her and the staff have left me recharged, feeling beautiful, and much less tense! i would definitely go here again!

This is a 4.5 (the last major point below will explain why). I did a walk-in 90-minute massage with a senior practitioner - Phil. The front desk was really friendly, all about the details, efficient and accommodating with giving me an appointment right away. The warm tea was also really relaxing

Highly recommend! I was trying to find a masseuse that could help with my migraines, as they were getting quite frequent and painful. I went to Lisa N and she's amazing. My migraines went away after a few visits and she's really helped with my upper back/shoulder pain. She also taught me exercises to help me with my concerns after the session, which I found really helpful. The facility itself is very clean (which I highly appreciate)

Great place for RMT Treatment. Walk ins are available, but they are always great at answering the phone, and extremely quick with emails as well.

I have been visiting Transense to have reiki sessions with Cherokee and my experiences with her blew my mind.I did not see a reiki session could be so powerful and healing,and this is coming from a person who has a done tons of inner work in lots of modalities.She is the real deal,and she opened a lot of way for me to explore in energy work so quickly,I can not be more thankful to her.
Maria Solovieva
Transense is a great place to come. I like the location and the a great atmosphere of comfort here. I come here regularly to visit my chiropractor Derek Cain who is absolutely amazing, with his help I have been able to reduce the pain I have been experiencing for the last 15 years. I thought it was impossible to eliminate this chronic condition but with healing powers of Dr Derek I can move with less pain and I feel understand my body better.
