Salzmann Claudia & Associates

I went in to see Claudia after a weekend of driving with a very sore neck. She asked all the right questions to assess the problem and her calm demeanour put me at ease. I was able to walk out feeling relaxed and better than I had in days. The pain in my neck had diminished and by the next morning I was starting to feel like myself again.
Her space is lovely, set on one of the prettiest streets in Cabbagetown and you feel like you are truly escaping the busy world when you step inside. She and her team of RMTs are all able to treat you (they share files) so you don’t need to wait for a spot with the person who saw you last when making appointments. This flexibility in scheduling is something I haven’t seen anywhere else and will keep me coming back.
I whole-​heartedly recommend Salzmann and Associates!

I’ve been a client of Claudia’s for over 20 years and can trust iffy to the excellent treatment and professionalism at her clinic. Swedish massage, hot stone, and the absolutely amazing water massage. Who knew I could doze off while being massaged in a warm pool?

I highly recommend Claudia Salzmann & Associates for therapeutic massage in Toronto. Although I know that the clinic offers a variety of techniques and procedures (they even have a body temperature pool in the back room!), I visited with one purpose in mind: to de-​stress.
I work as an event photographer, which means that my days are frequently long and my shoulders are burdened by the heft of two cameras hanging from them for hours – hours! My upper-​back is mostly a wreck afterwards, and that’s when massage helps. Claudia and her associates are knowledgeable and skilled practitioners. Enter through the unassuming black doors and you’re greeted by friendly faces, and, sometimes, by the sleepy face of Claudia’s golden retriever. There are coat hangers, comfortable armchairs, and massive windows allowing for an abundance of natural light to flood the reception area.
Right at about this time, you’ll discover another long-​lost pleasantry: your appointed time is the time you’re appointed. I’ve never had to wait for my turn, as is often the case at doctors’ and dentists’ offices. You walk in, remove your shoes and jacket, and you’re directed to your room. The rooms are well appointed, spacious, and kept meticulously clean. The therapist walks in after you’re well and relaxed on the heated table, and proceeds with the therapy after having a quick chat to discuss what, if any, ailment is responsible for your visit.
I almost fell asleep on the table at one point; the music playing at an ever-​so-​subtle volume must have contributed to this. The calming selection contributes well to an atmosphere of extreme relaxation.
At the end of the day, massage isn’t going to cure the core issue plaguing by back – supporting heavy equipment on my shoulders for hours at a time – but it sure-​as-​hell helps treat the stress and pain on the days following a long event. Bottom line: the service is impeccable, the staff is professional, and I’m coming back for more.

This clinic is amazing and Claudia is the best!!! I’m an avid runner and saw her to manage my chronic running-​related muscle tension, achilles tendonitis and IT band issues. From the second I walked through the door (actually, I ran from Davisville to get down there!) she was fully attentive to my needs and made sure I was relaxed and comfortable. When she noticed I was sweaty from my run down she even offered to let me use the clinic’s shower before my massage… something I never even considered and was grateful to have access to!
The massage itself was extremely thorough, intuitive, and hit up all of my tender spots without sending me home in agony. Claudia has an easy way of finding your tight spots and working them out with ease. As a Naturopathic Doctor who has worked with and sought treatment from numerous RMT’s, Claudia’s experience and natural touch makes her stand out above the rest.
On top of that, the clinic itself has an amazing energy and easy flow. Everything seems to be so organized and well thought-​out, from the décor and the design, to the energy of the patients coming and going from their appointments. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this place, anyone who discovers it is lucky to have the full experience that Claudia has to offer!
