He began his healthcare career in physiotherapy in 2014, earning a Bachelor’s degree in Physiotherapy from Daegu University in South Korea.

In addition to his clinical practice, SJ serves as an Instructor in the Registered Massage Therapy program, where he teaches and mentors future massage therapists. His involvement in education allows him to stay current with evidence-informed practice while helping develop the next generation of healthcare professionals.
SJ excels in treating individuals who spend long hours sitting, walking, or standing, as well as those experiencing postural dysfunction, muscle tension, and movement restrictions. Through detailed assessment and skilled palpation, he identifies trigger points and dysfunctional movement patterns to effectively reduce pain and restore function.
He integrates a variety of techniques and modalities, including Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, joint mobilization, and PNF stretching. Drawing on his background in physiotherapy and bodywork, SJ applies appropriate pressure and treatment techniques to maximize therapeutic outcomes while minimizing unnecessary tissue irritation. His goal is to help patients move better, feel better, and improve their overall quality of life.

Buccal Facial Massage is a specialized facial massage that combines external facial techniques with gentle intraoral (inside the cheek) massage to release tension in the facial muscles. This treatment helps improve circulation, reduce facial puffiness, relieve jaw tightness caused by everyday stress, and promote a naturally relaxed appearance. Please note: This treatment is intended for general facial muscle tension and wellness. If you are experiencing significant jaw pain, difficulty opening your mouth, clicking or locking of the jaw, or have been diagnosed with a TMJ disorder, please book our TMJ Massage treatment instead. **Patients seeking treatment for TMJ dysfunction or chronic jaw pain should book the TMJ Massage appointment rather than Buccal Facial Massage.
