About me

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 five year part-time program for a diploma in Osteopathic Manual Practice from CCMH in Halifax. My studies will be completed in 2027.

Other recent continuing education courses I completed are: “Myofascial techniques with Thomas Myers”, “Acupuncture in sports medicine with Whitfield Reaves” and “TMJ dysfunction with Stuart Hinds”.

I always played competitive soccer and several injuries prevented me from competing at times. Treatments from Physiotherapists and Massage Therapists helped me get back on the field. This created a curiosity in anatomy and health and sparked an interest in this career. I know how difficult it is when you cannot enjoy the activities you love, and I want to get you back on track as soon as possible.

Some of my favorite activities are running, cross country skiing, surfing and photography. My wife Cecilia and I are avid hikers and we enjoy gardening and healthy eating.

Please reach out to me if you have any specific questions or would like to schedule your appointment.

Be well,

Roman
