Davison Massage - Relaxing down in Evergreen

It has not been a common thing for me to return to see the same therapist twice, but I allowed myself this luxury with Kalin at Davison Massage, located down in Evergreen (SW Calgary). Luckily, I was able book in with Kalin on both occasions, although she is only onsite one day a week (Wednesdays).

Davison Massage is a recent fixture in the community of Evergreen, having just opened in January 2013. The location is definitely unique. It does not look like a clinic, at first glance, but once you enter one of the treatment rooms, it doesn't seem to matter. Located in a professional portion of a residential/office style building (I have never seen these type of buildings before anywhere in Calgary), you walk into a long hallway, and almost every room is either the reception office or a treatment room.  Each massage room is individually decorated and styled to maximize relaxation and minimize any feeling of an office space. Each room is carpeted, has beautiful windows and stylish furniture. To add to the coziness of the treatment spaces, each massage table is heated and has added blankets to ensure warmth.  Individualized playlists of customized music really add a unique touch.

I was first greeted by Kalin at the reception office, where I filled out a health history form, and then was escorted back to her room for an interview and then to get ready for my massage.

To review Kalin's massage would be difficult. I think I fell asleep once or twice. What I did like is that the tone for the whole massage started as soon as she began the treatment. There was some initial conversation, but it did not distract from the focus of the massage, but rather allowed for some chatting, and then it died off, and into a deep relaxation I fell. I did have some muscles and areas that needed more work, but those were definitely addressed without needing to engage in accentuated deep breathing or even holding my breath. I felt totally rejeuvenated and refreshed at the end of the session (and this happened at both massages that I enjoyed with Kalin!).  Kalin did not have a very deep style of massage, however, she was able to achieve the relief in my muscles without needing the depth. Anyone who might like a deeper session might feel like the session is too superficial, but this was not so in my case.

I am very glad to find a therapist in the deep south who can provide a complete, all around successful treatment, as I have had great difficulty in finding such a spot up to date.

Kalin Ulsh, RMT is a 2200 hour therapist having trained here in Calgary at MH Vicars School of Massage Therapy.  She practices at Davison Massage on Wednesdays and also in the city's NW throughout the rest of the week.
