Solstice Registered Massage Therapy

Change doesn't always feel all roses and lightness and skipping through a field of sunflowers at golden hour. Ditch what you think you should be feeling. Ditch any narratives that are holding you back.

It's okay for things to feel messy and raw and clunky. It's okay for change to feel scary and hard and exciting and uncomfortable.

You got this. This feeling doesn't last. And maybe, just maybe, after the clunky phase, there'll be sunflowers.

📣 You NEVER have to apologize to me (or anyone) for the state of your body. 📣

Read that again.

I hear it almost every time I treat a women's legs, "I'm so sorry, I forgot to shave!" (Yes, it truly is that common!)

🌿 As a Registered Healthcare provider, it is my job to make sure that you feel safe, comfortable, and supported while you are in my treatment space.

🌿 The last thing I want is for you to spend your precious treatment time worrying about what I think about your body hair (I'll let you in on a secret.. I don't think about it at all! 😌)

🌿 I know it can be hard to fight the urge to apologize (it's a hard habit to break!) But come as you are to my treatment space and you will be met with kindness, respect, and care.

Body hair is normal.✌️

Today marks one month of Solstice RMT 🎉

It's been so lovely to see both new and familiar faces in the clinic as I begin this exciting new chapter.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me in this past month through words of encouragement, referrals, post shares, reviews, and clinic visits. I am so appreciative. Thank you for helping me grow 🌿

Hi there!
I think it's about time I introduced myself!

My name is Samantha Smith and I have been a Registered Massage Therapist in good standing with the CMTO since 2018.

🌿 My clinical interests revolve around stress, anxiety, headache management, and postural tension relief.

🌿 When I'm not at the clinic I love to go camping, fishing, and hiking with my husband.

🌿 It has been my dream to open my own practice and I'm so excited to announce that my new practice space in Guelph Naturopathic Medical Clinic officially opens today!

🌿 Come visit me in my new space by conveniently booking online:

People attending a massage therapy appointment for the first time might not know what to expect. The RMTAO has created an infographic outlining different things patients can expect during a massage therapy appointment from the health history, to assessment, to home care.
