The regulation of the massage therapy in Canada is not uniform. In fact, in most of the provinces and territories, this profession is not regulated. The Massage Therapy is indeed recognized only in three Canadian provinces, in Newfoundland-and-Labrador, Ontario and British Columbia. The massage therapy to Newfoundland and Labrador : In Newfoundland and Labrador, massage therapists must be members of the College of Massage Therapists of Newfoundland and Labrador and the Newfoundland and Labrador Massage Therapists' association to be able to exercise their profession.
I could successfully operate one of the four franchises without having experience owning a business because a franchise “is generally a proven business model … [and] reduces your risk” (Stricker, 2015, P. 74). Figure 5 demonstrates the four franchises’ market share, revenue, and net worth. Furthermore, I could successfully operate Massage Envy without experience, since Massage Envy has the highest market share and a net worth of $500,000. Although I have no experience in operating a business, “franchisors offer extensive hand-holding” that will allow me to succeed” (“Buying a Business off the Rack”, 2013). Moreover, “name recognition” will allow me to succeed and reduce my risk (Stricker, 2015, P. 74). Also, gaining knowledge by experience and from other franchisors will allow me to succeed.

Canadian health care differs quite drastically from any other country. To begin with Canada’s health care system is built upon the Canada Health Act. The Canada Health Act is federal legislation that puts in place conditions by which individual provinces and territories in Canada may receive funding and get health care services.(Canadian Health Care, 2004) This act was put into place in order to obtain the primary objectives of the Canadian health care policy which is to protect, promote and restore physical and mental well-being of residents of Canada and to facilitate reasonable access to health services without financial or other barriers.(Health Canada, 2010) There are five key features that every province must meet in order to receive
Stretched tendons, torn muscles, and sprained joints are all things that can be healed by vets or even better equine massage therapists. Equine massage therapy is a unique industry within the horse world. Massage therapists are hired to relax horses after hard performance, and help them recover from any various injury they may acquire. Equine injuries are inevitable; recovering from an injury can be very complicated and costly; however there is an alternative. Massage therapy used as a rehabilitation technique can strengthen the injury to heal correctly without future complications, keep the horses muscles relaxed and operating correctly, and assisting the horse to recover in a natural state with no medications. Healing an injury can take many weeks or even months to accomplish, but with massage therapy the healing can be done very efficiently.
Many people pass this concrete stucco looking office on the strip mall. Most people who pass by may go to the bar next door to Dr. Mason’s chiropractic office. No one pays much attention to a place where all the windows are low tinted dark with a door that has the word doctor on it. People only look for doctors when they are injured or sick. I’m sure the lighted Budlight sign flashing and smell of food attract more people.
Individuals with sports-related injuries as well as those who have been injured in an automobile accident frequently find relief through chiropractic care, physical therapy and massage therapy. At Icon Medical Centers in Miami, near Doral we offer these services, and more.

The theme of the course, “Building a Better World”, could not be more relevant at this very moment. With the constantly changing political climate and the evolution of society, it is important to discuss the future of work and the different careers and jobs that are subject to change. Due to the very nature of change, certain industries and job sectors are affected more than others. In this case, the service sector is the talk of the town. With every ongoing year, the service sector is employing 1% more than the previous year. (Stats. Canada, 2016) While this may not be much, there is an equal decrease in the goods-producing sector, as most those jobs are taken up by baby boomers who are either retiring or nearing their retirement age. It is important to note that several of these jobs in the service sector are being
As an old, famous traditional Chinese saying puts it, 30% of an individual’s overall wellness comes from disease treatment, while the remaining 70% is a result of a healthy life style. Disease prevention depends on our social lifestyle, nutrition, exercise and ability to de-stress. As a professional Registered Massage therapist, I can help increase my clients’ awareness of their own responsibility for health lifestyle and of the importance of regular exercises, de-stress, and prevention of disease and dysfunction. By doing so, we not only help our clients and serve our society, but also reduce the burden to the health care system.
Physiotherapy in Canada Physiotherapy is a degree-based health profession that’s anchored in movement sciences. With client-focus practices, physiotherapists aim to maximise quality of life. This means to help clients find the most efficient ways to use their bodies in regards to maximising strengths, eliminating bad habits, and reducing strain on weaker areas. They have the knowledge and skills to improve a range of conditions associated with, but not limited to, neurological systems, neuromusculoskeletal systems, cardiovascular systems, and respiratory systems. Physiotherapists are trained with a “whole person” approach to health and are able to do preventative and maintenance work, in addition to rehabilitative work.
Canada 's health care framework is intended to verify that all Canadians subjects have admittance to primary and other fundamental health administrations. It is basically a publicly financed protection framework regulated on a provincial or regional level. The Canada Health Act set by the national government guarantees a high caliber of consideration and denies doctors from charging patients for services officially administered by the legislature. Lately, the Canadian Health Industry has been anticipated as the most noticeably awful run industry in Canada. Canada’s healthcare system, Medicare, is in a crisis which is boosted by high costs, inconsistent quality, and inaccessibility to essential services. By 2011, 50% of all government spending was expected to be spent on healthcare in Ontario. Canada is ranked 5th internationally, for its per capita spending on healthcare (OECD, 2009). While the financial burden of providing healthcare to Canadians has increased 5.5% from 2008 to 2009, so do have the challenges associated with providing timely access to services for those in need . Unfortunately high waiting times have become a significant factor in restricting access to care for Canadians, especially in the emergency departments (CIHI, 2007).
I myself want to act as a healing intermediary, offering massage clients improved mobility, increased flexibility, and new perspectives, in order to enable clients to be more successful in all aspects of their personal, professional, physical and mental lives. I plan to achieve this career vision by delivering highly customized care featuring innovative approaches to recovery based on knowledge of pain management, human anatomy and nutrition. Implementing one-on-one learning situations (educating and coaching) for clients. Also, harmoniously generating a team of motivated individuals, committed to treating and training clients at all levels.
I see a trend in many, many Massage Therapists who struggle with their practice. When I say struggle I am not talking about whether or not the MT has a full or empty schedule, I am talking about the one thing that keeps a person going for 5, 10, 20 plus years.
