Bryan Ramer

After completing a postgraduate course a few years ago, Bryan Ramer was inspired to redefine his approach to treatment as a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) — one that incorporates a somewhat lighter touch.

He now assesses for mobility as well as ease of tissues and integrates manual skills through soft tissue mobilization, with additional training in visceral and cranial-fascial mobilization. Bryan focuses on the subtleties of tissue response to guide each treatment, and every session is tailored to the individual goals of the patient.

You are encouraged to wear loose, comfortable clothing to the appointment.

In 2013, Bryan completed the diploma program at the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in New Westminster. When not at work, he enjoys learning both professionally and personally, growing microgreens, and exploring beautiful British Columbia.
