About Alex

As a registered massage therapist, Alex is committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental environment for patients to relax and heal. His philosophy encompasses providing manual therapy with compassion and high regard for each patient’s relationship with their own body, gender, and culture. Alex has centered his practice in Vancouver's Davie Village and West End since 2021. 

​

Many patients ask Alex what his “style” is, which ultimately stems from working in tandem with each person’s nervous system and understanding that individuals have different treatment needs at various times. Each treatment must be flexible and uniquely tailored – there is no “one size fits all” approach. Alex prefers incorporating myofascial, trigger point therapy, neuromuscular therapy and attachment release, joint mobilizations, and dynamic release/movement with Swedish. He is also trained and certified in providing IASTM therapy (instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization), sports massage, and sports first aid & concussion management.

​

Alex completed his massage therapy education with honours at the Vancouver College of Massage Therapy and holds a bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology and a Minor in Psychology from the University of British Columbia. Prior to his journey in massage therapy, Alex was involved with BC’s high school gymnastics program as a coach and judge. He also started as a gymnast at a late age for the sport and continues to do so recreationally.
