Amazing massage place in all of gta. Anna and Linda are such great massage therapists, really experienced and have helped me with my migraine pains and after delivery back pains! Got my whole family coming here!

Linda was really good. I’ve been dealing with a stiff neck from work lately, and I felt a lot better after the massage. She was friendly, professional, and didn’t rush through the session. Definitely worth it, and I’ll come back next time.👍

A huge thank you to Annie—an exceptional massage therapist and a true professional at what she does. As a competitive bikini bodybuilder and the 2025 Overall Canada Champion in Bikini Division, taking care of my body is absolutely essential. By the way, I'm 43 years young athlete. Any has been a huge part of my success throughout my competition prep. She helped keep my muscles healthy, released stubborn trigger points, and improved my mobility—especially through my upper back and between my shoulder blades, which helped me open up my lats for posing. That made a real difference on stage. Whenever I had tight glutes or sore legs from intense training, Annie always knew exactly what my body needed. Her deep tissue massage combined with cupping therapy helped relieve muscle tension, speed up recovery, and keep me performing at my best. I’m incredibly grateful for her knowledge, professionalism, and genuine care. Every session left me feeling better, moving better, and ready for my next workout. Thank you, Annie, for being such an important part of my journey to becoming the 2025 Overall Canada Champion. I truly appreciate everything you’ve done for me and highly recommend you to anyone looking for an exceptional massage therapist! Julia Kau. Instagram: @juliakau_official

I’ve been dealing with severe neck and shoulder pain for over 7 years, with constant tightness that no treatment truly relieved. After my session with Anni, I finally experienced genuine relief. She immediately understood the source of the tension and worked with incredible skill and care to release it safely and effectively. I left feeling lighter, deeply relaxed, and more comfortable than I have in years. Anni is truly exceptional at what she does highly recommended!

I have chronic pain on my left shoulder that goes up my neck. Literally randomly came in here as a walk-in cause of Google reviews, and now I know why. As someone who is picky and wants hard deep tissue massage this is one of the rarest gems I found that knows what they're doing. I dont remember the lady that serviced me unfortunately but was 10/10. If im not sore when I done my session, then its no good. I came out like a jelly. AMAZING! 04/29/2026 11:30am walk-in appt.

I had a massage done here today for the first time at 7pm. I believe it was Lily. Very much deep tissue, the techniques she did I've never experienced. They hurt in the best way? I'm super tense with a lot of knots all over so it was nice to feel some relief. Looking forward to trying others and bringing my husband. So glad to find this place.

I had a disappointing experience here due to unclear and changing information about receipts and insurance. Before booking a last minute appointment, I called and asked specifically about insurance because I’m covered through Manulife. I was told the clinic doesn’t deal with Manulife directly because they’ve had issues with it in the past. I felt this wasnt completely unreasonable at the time, so I asked if they could give me a receipt and I would submit the claim myself. I was told that would be fine. I was originally quoted $110 and was advised to bring cash for a discount. When I arrived, the price was $70, which I assumed was the discounted cash price. I again asked if I could submit the receipt to my insurance myself and was told yes. After the appointment when I asked for the receipt, I was then told they could not provide one because the reduced price was only for people not using insurance. I had already paid and completed the appointment. I left without any receipt or documentation that I was even treated there, which means I cannot submit anything to my insurance or provide proof of treatment to my doctor. This is very inconvenient for me because I’m currently dealing with injuries from a recent car accident and I’m already tight on funds while trying to get the treatment I need. I completely understand that the clinic may have had poor experiences billing Manulife directly, but I had already offered to handle the claim myself. Being told twice that I could receive a receipt and then being refused one afterward felt misleading and left me in a difficult situation. The massage itself was fine, and it is a pretty good price if I wasn't tight on cash right now. but the lack of clear communication about receipts and insurance created an inconvenience. They had me in within the hour that I called which was convenient as I was experiencing a lot of soreness, and I felt that I was treated nicely there, but I feel misled with their practices.

I wanted to share my appreciation for Annie at Hickory Wellness Center. First of all, the center is a good one and clean. They accommodated me right after their closure, which I really appreciated. I’ve seen several massage therapists there, and I have to say Annie is the best. The others were good, but Annie stands out. She has a real talent for identifying muscle tightness and patiently working them out. I had previously spent multiple sessions in physiotherapy for my shoulders and arms, including dry needling, but I can honestly say that this one session helped me as much as three or four physio sessions.
