Cloud Nine Couples Treatment Room

Discover ancient massage techniques from around the world performed by our expert therapists.  To create your custom experience, please select one from the following:

 

Shiatsu: A traditional Japanese massage technique based on the theory of energy where manual pressure is applied to specific points on the body to relieve tension and pain.  Shiatsu is ideal to prevent Tension Headaches, Sciatic Nerve Syndrome and other common muscular tension in the body.  This treatment is highly recommended for gym lovers and athletes, does not require oil or lotion, and is performed while in sports clothing.

 

Thai: During this treatment the body is compressed, pulled and stretched, while combined with deep static and rhythmic pressures.  Traditional Thai Massage, often referred to as “passive yoga”, does not require oil or lotion.  To experience this treatment, please wear warm, loose-fitting clothing.  Thai Massage is performed on a firm mattress on the floor of your treatment room. 

 

Reiki: A Japanese healing technique based on the principle that the therapist is able to channel energy into the guest by means of touch.  This energy touch activates the natural healing processes of the body and restores physical and emotional well-being.

 

Craniosacral Therapy: A hands-on manual therapy which eliminates muscular restriction and promotes the release of nervous tension.  Highly effective in treating stress, headaches, teeth grinding/TMJ, migraines, post-pregnancy pelvic discomfort and muscular imbalances.  Unlike a massage treatment which presses and moves tissue, craniosacral therapy requires holding a body part in stillness for extended periods of time.  Contraindications include concussion/whiplash in the last 6 months, diagnosed brain tumor and a heart pacer.  No oils are used during this treatment.

 

Reflexology: This treatment involves the application of pressure to the hands, feet and ears with specific thumb, finger, and hand techniques. It is based on a system of zones and reflex areas that purportedly reflect an image of the body on the feet, hands and ears, with the premise that such work affects a physical change to the body.

 

Lomi Lomi: This massage is a traditional Polynesian technique focused on energy flow.  Hawaiian belief is that Lomi Lomi helps to release blockages in the body giving energy new direction.  Lomi Lomi promotes emotional, mental, spiritual and physical healing, and is very relaxing.

 

West + East: This unique experience features a Swedish Massage with elements of Thai Massage, Shiatsu and Reflexology.

Rogers Centre & Lakeshore
Distance: 6.23km
Climb: 50m

Look for the $5 million Art instillations in and around the Centre. On the northwest and northeast façade is a sculpture by Michael Snow, "The Audience". As well, inside on the north wall is a steel and glass sculpture with over 2000 signature of people involved in the construction of the Centre. It also consists of artifacts found during excavation such as musket balls and pottery.

Union Station marks the beginning of the "PATH", a 27km underground pathway connecting major buildings in the downtown core.

Art Gallery of Ontario & Kensington Market
Distance: 5.6km
Climb: 36m

The new AGO is Toronto-born Frank Gehry’s first building in Canada and marks the very place where he made the initial connection between art and architecture. Hallmarks of his AGO design connect the city and the Gallery in provocative new ways including,dramatic sculptural staircases, the warmth of Douglas fir, and the extensive use of glass which infuses the galleries with natural light. As you will discover, it is an extraordinary new home for extraordinary new art.

A local favourite monument and meeting marker in Kensington Market is the cat on the kitchen chair and is a poignant representation of the unique area. Cats rule supreme in the market.

When passing through China Town, look for the Pole Collonade. An art installation along Spadina Avenue depicting various important figures in Chinese culture such as a rooster, dragon, blossoms and more.

St. Lawrence Market & Distillery District
Distance: 5.66km
Climb: 37m

The Distillery District is the only pedestrian zone in Toronto. It also is home to the largest collection of Victorian-era buildings in North America which contain numerous cafés, restaurants, and shops within them.

The old Bank of Montreal building which is home to the Hockey Hall of Fame, is one of only 12 buildings which survived the Great Fire of 1904. The façade has been restored to its 1850’s charm and occupies its original position on Yonge Street.

University of Toronto & Financial District
Distance: 6.06km
Climb: 46m

Check out the Allan Lambert Galleria. Sometimes referred to as the “Crystal Cathedral of Commerce” is an atrium designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, which connects Bay Street with Heritage Square. The six storey high pedestrian thoroughfare is structured by eight freestanding supports on each side of the Galleria, which branch out into parabolic shapes evoking a forest canopy or a tree-lined avenue because of the presence of building facades along the sides of the structure.

The CN Tower is outfitted with 1,330 super-bright LED lights. They are lit every night from dusk until 2am. Different colours are used to celebrate holidays such as red and white for Canada Day and rainbow colours for Pride.
