Brian is newly arrived to Atlantic Canada and excited to begin his life in Saint John! His career has seen him practice as a Registered Massage Therapist in Ontario, British Columbia, and now to new shores in New Brunswick. A graduate of Centennial College's Massage Therapy Program in Toronto, Brian has seven years experience of treating a variety of conditions from motor vehicle accidents, carpal tunnel, dislocations, muscle tears, joint sprains, tennis elbow, thoracic outlet syndrome, fibromyalgia, post surgical recovery, shin splints, TMJ, plantar fascitis, whiplash, migraine headaches and more! Over time Brian's treatment style has developed to be anatomy and function focused. In treatment you can expect a detailed interview and assessment with the intention of discovering the root causes of dysfunction. Treatment will proceed in kind, with a focus on eliminating any compensation for injury and then direct treatment of the affected area. Brian's treatments often focus on releasing trigger points, deep myofascial work, and lengthening of the muscles through passive and active stretching to help promote optimal muscle function. Treatment with Brian also focuses on home care. Massage can help to bring you back to neutral, but retraining movement patterns and creating strength and stability must happen in order to resolve issues for the long term. Expect to be given a progressive program of stretches and strengthening exercises that will increase joint stability and muscle health so that you remain healthy and stable for all of your future activities!
