Services
Garry has been practicing the assessment and treatment of various musculoskeletal conditions since graduating from the Professional Institute of Massage Therapy in 1997. He was the President of the Massage Therapy Association of Manitoba 2002 - 2008 and has received the Merit Award for Outstanding Contributions to the Profession.
When muscles are inflamed the space between the skin and muscle is compressed decreasing the flow of lymphatic fluid and stimulating pain receptors. Placement of Kinesio Tape on the affected muscle/joint helps lift the skin creating space to improve lymphatic flow above subcutaneous tissues and reducing pain.
Exercise and activities of daily living can be strenuous on the muscle in our body. Using Active Isolated Stretching will help prepare the muscles, joints and fascia of the body in preforming these activities. The more flexible and warmed up the muscles and fascia the more flexible you become with less chance of injury.

I'm a very active guy through sports and my work . I also have chronic back issues. You don't have to look any further Gary is a phenomenal therapist and is the only reason i can stay active. Also very professional and talented. His clinic is clean and well kept and his schedule is very flexible as well. He listens to your issues and also offers suggestion for things you can do on your own that may help those little aches and pains. Thx Gary for a job well done as per usual.

Garry is an excellent Massage Therapist. Was referred to him by my chiropractor and have not been let down. Real down to earth. Listens to your concerns and lets you guide the entire process. Comfortable setting. Always open to having real and genuine conversations about life or whatever you want to talk about. Would definitely recommend to anybody looking for a new massage therapist, or if you're trying one out for the first time.

Garry is hands down the best massage therapist I've ever had. (No pun intended). My back was so bad that after our first session, I was in pain for 2 days from getting so deep into the tissue. After that though, I was loose and comfortable! I see him now around once a month for maintenance and excellent conversation!
