It's not often you get to work at something you love - but our team are living proof you can! Read our personal journeys and see what brought us here and why we can't wait to massage all those aches, pains and troubles away. We have Senior Practitioners, Practitioners and Apprentices who are licensed by the City of Toronto as well as RMTs (CMTO Registered) who can fulfill your Healthcare requirements.
Our Registered Massage Therapists (RMTs) have completed 2200 in the study of anatomy, physiology, sports medicine, pregnancy massage, as well as Swedish and a host of other techniques. They hold an active membership with CMTO (Find Your RMT at CMTO) and have been trained in the art of Traditional Thai massage by our very own teachers. All massage services are covered under your Health Insurance by our RMTs who look forward to addressing your health concerns and pampering you in the process!
At Bahn Thai Spa we are equally as passionate about learning as we are about making Thai massage an affordable experience for everyone. We are able to do this through a variety of different prices and services available. Should you not have Healthcare benefits, you can select a service with a Senior Practitioner, Practitioner or Apprentice, all with varying levels and hours of practical experience. We continue to provide internal workshops to enhance their skills and move them forward. You can read the requirements for each provider category below.
Our Senior Practitioners have a minimum of 2 years of consistent practice and guidance under our ITM CAPT trained teachers and their skills have progressed to a level that they can now provide a more targeted approach. They have a minimum of 2000 hours of training and practice, having taken many advanced Workshops. Some have been practicing since they were children, as is customary in Thai households.
Practitioners have completed the requirements of ITM TORONTO school training and in addition, attended further internal Workshops or and worked directly with our teachers. Though not as experienced as our Senior Practitioners, our Practitioners have completed at least 600 hours of training/supervised practice. As well as for relaxation, their level of training allows for a more intense experience where they can now focus in on specific areas of concern. We rate them as "top notch" and hope you will too!
At Bahn Thai School, we take pride in the caliber of training we offer. Our Apprentices fulfill rigorous requirements, including completing a set number of case studies, undergoing over 150 hours of supervised training and practice, and obtaining a Holistic Practitioner License from the City of Toronto.
Once they join us on staff, they engage in further practice under the guidance of our teachers and alongside their peers, gaining invaluable experience working with the public. Upon reaching the Practitioner level, they will have amassed a minimum of 400 hours of training and supervised practice.
Keep an eye on our schedule, as we regularly host courses throughout the year and welcome new apprentices into our program.
