James is a Registered Massage Therapist who practices in Vancouver, B.C. Following the cliché route of most practitioners in the industry, James (unintentionally) sustained several serious injuries that led him to finding therapy as an effective way to rehab himself back to his status as a national-level athlete (as well as relate to his clients).

James has a background in Kinesiology and Psychology, as well as many years as a National level Olympic Weightlifter. This experience has provided him with a greater understanding of the movement, mobility, and strength of the human body.

James also has a huge passion for teaching others, as he also has a combination of coaching the sport, being an instructor at VCMT, and a mentor at Myodetox.
