Metta Massage + Wellness

Sending love to all the kids + teens moving through grad + prom season right now 🤍

Watching my own son head into this season has me thinking a lot about young people these days.

Such an exciting time, but also one filled with pressure, expectations + big decisions about the future.

Sometimes we forget how much young people are carrying too.

We really feel for this generation growing up in a world that rarely slows down or gets quiet.

Wishing all the young people moments to be present, soak it all in + just breathe through this exciting season of life.

And if you have a grad you’re celebrating this season, we’d love to hear about them 💐🎉🧑‍🎓

Mother’s Day can hold so many emotions depending on your story.

Today I’m sharing about the woman who came into my life + loved me like her own after the tragic loss of my birth mother when I was a newborn.

I think part of why care, comfort + emotional safety matter so much to me is because I know what it feels like to not always have those things…

And I also know what it feels like to receive them in a way that shaped my life, my heart + eventually the work I do now. 🤍

Kids Massage, we do that! 🤍

A gentle, supportive introduction to care for growing bodies.

We’re always here if you have questions.

Team Metta

After a long, cold winter, your skin deserves a little extra care 💚

Our new body butter recipe is now available when booking the 60, 75 or 90 minute SEASONAL MASSAGE.

🍑 It’s a classic Swedish full-body Massage, elevated with rich plant oils like Shea, Avocado, Peach + Carrot to replenish parched skin.

🍊Fruit essences like Grapefruit, Orange + Lemon help to energize your senses + uplift your mood.

🚿Pro-tip: on massage-day, exfoliate with a DIY sugar scrub in the shower. Then put on your comfiest clothes and 💥you are prepped + ready to receive your nourishing body butter treatment 🫠

🌷This is my idea of Spring Renewel, how about you?

PS DM me if you want my favourite, easy, homemade sugar scrub recipe.

A little team recognition today 🤍

Congrats to Metta’s beloved team members, Chayse + Jackie, who were recognized by their community in the Toronto Star Readers’ Choice Awards.

We don’t do this work for awards or recognition. Most people who choose this path do it because they genuinely care, because they want to help + because making someone feel even a little bit better is reason enough.

That’s why it feels especially meaningful to see these two wonderful humans acknowledged by the very community they show up for every day with so much dedication, skill + heart.

Grateful to have you both at Metta.

We are so happy to share that Metta received top honours in the Toronto Star Readers’ Choice Awards for Best Massage Therapy Clinic in 2025.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote for our small business. We are truly grateful for the support.

This recognition belongs to our whole community. Your trust, your referrals, + your continued support allow us to keep doing this work every day.

I especially want to thank the RMTs at Metta
Chayse, Heather, Dayna, Darlyn, Viktoriia, Yvonne + Andrew

You make me proud every single day. I ask a lot of you in the way you show up with care, professionalism + heart, and you always deliver. We would not be here without you.

This award reflects the trust our clients place in us + the consistent care our team brings to their work. Thank you for choosing us, supporting us, + giving us the opportunity to do work we truly love.

Love,
Jennifer

Metta is a Buddhist word that means loving-kindness.

Many years ago this philosophy became the quiet intention behind my work as a massage therapist.

When it came time to name the clinic, it felt like the only word that truly reflected what I hoped this space would be.

I believe that when a practitioner genuinely cares, that intention can be felt.

That has always been the spirit of Metta.

🤍

Women bring so much love + care into the world.
Today feels like a good day to acknowledge that.
May some of it find its way back to you.

Before there were finished rooms or warm lighting, there was just a feeling of what it could be, and I trusted it.

I remember standing in those empty rooms, excited to transform them into the warm + welcoming home of Metta.

More than a clinic, it would become a healing space where you could feel held + nourished by caring, compassionate providers.

Sometimes we end up creating exactly what we needed, even before we realize it.

Maybe you’ve felt that way too? 🤍

This is Heather, RMT 🤍
One of the wonderful humans behind the care at Metta.
We’re lucky to have her.
