Welcome
Medi Massage was established in 1996 and has been treating clients since then. We are currently located in the Northeast end of Edmonton and have convenient FREE parking for our clients all the way around the building.
Alida Chapman graduated from Continuing Education Services (CES, later renamed Metro Community College) in June 1996. She has worked closely with physiotherapists and chiropractors in order to gain a much higher level of knowledge which she now passes on to clients.
For many years she had visualized a massage clinic that would serve her community in a soothing and quiet environment. Alida wanted to bring together a team of professional massage therapists to achieve this goal. In June 2009, this goal was achieved. Alida will be retiring mid-2024 and Cassie Bischoff, the new owner, will maintain the clinic’s well-being.

To support the massage profession in becoming an alternative therapy to health care by maintaining a skilled and caring team that the public and other healthcare providers trust.
