As a Registered Massage Therapist and Registered Acupuncturist I hold memberships in good standing with the Massage Therapy Association of Nova Scotia (MTANS) and the Maritime Association of Registered Acupuncturists (MARA).
I am currently enrolled in a 4 year part-time program to become an Osteopath through the College of Osteopathic Studies in Halifax and will be finished with my studies in 2026.
About me
For the last 18 years I have helped clients with various acute and chronic pain conditions. I established my clinic in Cheticamp in 2007 and it has been really great to become part of this wonderful community. Helping people experience more health through a multi-disciplinary approach is important to me I and often refer clients to other practitioners, when I think it can be beneficial. Working with your Medical Doctor, Physiotherapist, Occupational Therapist and other health care professionals is important to me. I want to get to the root of the cause rather than just treat the symptoms.
Playing sports has always been a passion of mine and I have had several injuries that have prevented me from being active. I know how difficult it is when you cannot enjoy the activities you love and I want to get my clients back on track as soon as possible.
In my spare time I enjoy playing soccer, badminton, cross country skiing, working out, surfing and photography. My partner Cecilia and I are avid hikers and we enjoy healthy eating. I am committed to continuing my education and I truly hope I can help you on your way back to moving freely and living a better life.
Yours in health,
Roman
