  • Craig is an experienced Remedial Therapist currently furthering his studies in Myotherapy.

    He combines his knowledge of Remedial Massage and Myotherapy to provide effective, results-driven treatments tailored to each client's individual needs. Using a quick initial assessment to identify the underlying causes of pain, tension, or fatigue, Craig's treatments are primarily Remedial Massage-based, with additional modalities including dry needling, cupping, stretching techniques, and Myotherapy corrective exercise.

    Craig is also passionate about educating his clients — helping them understand the reasons behind their pain and dysfunctional movement patterns, and what they can do to achieve long-term improvements. The positive feedback from his clients reflects his commitment to delivering lasting results.

    Myotherapy represents the highest level of education in the Remedial Massage Therapy industry. Building on the foundation of Remedial Massage, it focuses on restoring movement, addressing muscular imbalances, and identifying the root causes of pain and dysfunction through functional movement assessment and corrective exercise prescription. This approach goes beyond symptom relief, helping clients rebuild, restore, and maintain their physical wellbeing long-term.
