How well you take care of your self now determines your quality of life in the future.

I started out as a Cardio Kickboxing instructor at a Martial Arts school and quickly moved on to getting my Personal Training Certification. As a trainer I worked with all sorts of fitness levels from children’s fitness program, older adults, to high level amateur and professional athletes.

For the past 20 plus years I have worked in the health and wellness field. I started out as a Cardio Kickboxing instructor at a Martial Arts school and quickly moved on to getting my Personal Training Certification. As a trainer I worked with all sorts of fitness levels from children’s fitness program, older adults, to high level amateur and professional athletes. In 2010 I graduated from Branford Hall Career Institute’s 1080hr Massage Therapy Program. After graduating I used my background in Exercise Science to guide me in my continuing education. I was very lucky to have great mentors right out of school to help guide the direction I wanted to take as a Massage Therapist. I studied Orthopedic Massage/Integrated Manual Therapy/Myofascial Release/Neuromuscular Therapy along with Specializations in Corrective Exercise, Sports Performance, and Conditioning for MMA/Combat Athletes I bring over twenty years of improving health in others into my treatment room and every training session. I look forward to helping others on their health and wellness journey.

Go see Ryan if you have nagging injuries that couldn’t be resolved elsewhere.

Ryan's grasp of the intricate connections between fascia, tissue, muscle, joint and bone helps me from head to toe every session and in the weeks following.

If you’re just looking for something to relax you temporarily, get a massage. But, if you’re looking to actually feel and move better work with Ryan.

Absolutely would tell someone about this type of work and benefits. I walked out with exactly what I was hoping to achieve. For some reason I thought my appt was an hr later than it was and when I showed, Ryan just carried on like a true professional. He definitely enjoys his work and is good at communicating with you thru the process of manipulating your fascia.

Good improvement after one session. Pain decreased and range of motion increased.
