Youth Massage in Edmonton

Gentle, Supportive Massage Therapy for Growing Bodies

Youth Massage at Massage Renewal is a safe, age-appropriate form of massage therapy designed specifically for children and teens under the age of 16. As young bodies grow, develop, and adapt to physical activity, school demands, and sports, gentle massage therapy can play an important role in supporting comfort, movement, and overall well-being.

Our Registered Massage Therapists provide youth treatments with a calm, respectful, and professional approach—always prioritizing safety, consent, and comfort.

What Is Youth Massage?

Youth Massage uses lighter pressure and modified techniques tailored to a child or teenager’s stage of physical development. Treatments are adapted to address:

  • Muscle soreness from sports or activity

  • Growth-related tension and discomfort

  • Postural strain from school and device use

  • Stress, anxiety, and difficulty relaxing

  • Minor aches related to overuse

A parent or legal guardian must provide consent, and in many cases may be present during the appointment, depending on age and comfort level.
