"I am writing this review as a colleague of Matt's partly because I've had so many patients who've shared stellar feedback about him. Consistently, femme folks will say, "you know, I never thought I'd feel comfortable booking with a male RMT, but so-and-so insisted Matt is great, and they were right!" Matt's self-awareness, keen ability to read people, and wealth of knowledge and experience make him approachable and empowering to work with."

About Matt: Matt (he/him) has been involved in athletics, coaching, and health throughout his entire life. He grew up playing team sports like soccer and rugby, later pursuing mountain biking and rock climbing in his teens and early twenties. Matt has spent the last decade competing in powerlifting at a provincial level and coaching world record holders, professional athletes, and people who just want to move better, feel better, and be pain free.
Matt combines his years of coaching experience with his clinical knowledge as a massage therapist to tailor his approach to the specific needs and goals of his patients. He uses a combination of traditional Swedish massage, orthopaedic techniques, joint mobilizations, and pain management through patient education in stretching and exercise.
Your session with Matt will be focused on your goals, whether they are just to relax from a long day of work or if they are more specific and related to performance or a recent injury. Aside from the massage you may be guided through some simple stretching, exercise, or self massage that will allow you to manage your symptoms between appointments and empower you to better care for yourself in the future.

I recently had the pleasure of receiving massages from Matt and Liz, and I have to say they are both exceptional massage therapists. Matt and Liz have a wonderful ability to find and address problem areas with ease, using a variety of techniques to alleviate tension and discomfort. They are always mindful of my comfort and relaxation during the massage. Overall, I highly recommend them as massage therapists. They are both professional, knowledgeable, and truly gifted at what they do. I always leave their sessions feeling relaxed and revitalized.

Matt at the Parker street location is amazing. He is a very skilled practitioner who makes sure you are comfortable during the entire session. I really liked his attention to details. The ambience is great. I look forward to continuing my treatments here in the future.
