Pooja is expert in massage therapy. She will patiently understand the queries, answer based on your requirements. She is very professional and organized. The best part is she is also certified in pediatric therapy. My 5 YO and 8 YO enjoyed their sessions and liked it so much. I definitely recommend Healastic( Pooja). I got a lot of relief from my lower back pain and stiffness.

I had such an amazing experience. I came in with pain in my leg, and the care and attention she gave to that area was incredible she really took the time to understand what was going on and treated it so thoughtfully. By the end of the session, the pain had completely eased. What stood out the most was how comfortable she made me feel throughout. Her energy is calm, professional, and genuinely caring. You can tell she truly wants her clients to feel better, not just physically but overall. I’m so grateful for the experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a massage that’s both healing and relaxing.

Pooja is amazing at what she does. My back had been tight and sore for months, and after just one session I felt relief. She is extremely skilled, attentive, and knew exactly how to find and release all the knots and tension. I can't wait for my next massage. Thank you!
Pooja is an incredible massage therapist! I’ve received several massages from her and her touch is sublime—great deep tissue work when called upon but she has the skill to ease up when necessary as well. Her kind demeanor is also an incredible plus! A true 10/10 🙂

We’re looking forward to treating you

Services
Treatments shaped around what your body needs
Every treatment is given by a Registered Massage Therapist, and hot stones are used in every massage.
Prenatal & Lymphatic
Supportive care during pregnancy with safe positioning, plus manual lymphatic drainage for swelling, post-surgical recovery, and immune support.
Jaw, Head & Targeted Work
Buccal facial massage for TMJ and jaw clenching, head and scalp work for tension headaches, along with abdominal and hand-and-foot treatments.
Hot Stone Therapy
Heated stones are part of every massage — they warm the tissue so the work can go deeper at lower pressure, and most clients find the results last longer.
Our story
Massage that treats the person, not only the muscle
Healastic is my registered massage therapy practice in Manotick, inside Aesthé Medical Aesthetics on Manotick Main Street. The name brings together two ideas I keep coming back to — healing and elasticity — because restoring flexibility in the tissue and balance in daily life usually go hand in hand.
I trained at the International Academy of Massage in Ottawa and have been practising since 2020. I also worked as a psychotherapist before moving into massage therapy, and that background still shapes how I assess: persistent headaches, night-time jaw clenching, and chronically raised shoulders often have more behind them than one tight muscle.
Appointments last 60 minutes and include intake and assessment when it is needed. I will ask about your work, your sleep, and what you have already tried; then we agree on a treatment plan and adjust it as you progress.

You do not need to wait. Pay at your appointment and I’ll email you a receipt with my CMTO registration number.
