Michael has always had a keen interest in human anatomy, physiology and athletic performance, and has completed his Bachelors of Kinesiology from the University of British Columbia. During his time as a Kinesiologist, he has worked with a wide variety of people from all age ranges with various orthopedic injuries, medical conditions and physical fitness levels. He decided to pursue a career as an RMT as a natural continuation to his exercise science education, leading him to complete the massage therapy diploma program at the West Coast College of Massage Therapy. Michael is a firm believer that patients must take charge of their own recovery. He strives to provide each patient with the confidence and tools necessary to actively participate in the rehab process both inside the clinic and on their own at home. He has an active treatment style that is a blend of his kinesiology and massage therapy training, utilizing a combination of manual therapy techniques and corrective exercise prescription as part of each treatment session. **Techniques**: Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Release, Joint Mobilization, Swedish Massage, Corrective Exercise. **Areas of Focus**: Orthopedic & Sports Injury Rehab, Post Surgical Rehab, ICBC/MVA’s, Repetitive Stress/Overuse Conditions.
