Injury rehabilitation has motivated him to pursue a career that allows athletes and the general population to take control over their health through client education and manual therapy.

Martin enjoys working with different types of athletes from a collegiate level to weekend warriors and also the general public. In his treatment, he likes to use a variety of massage techniques such as myofascial release, trigger point release, joint mobilization, muscle stripping and active stretching. ​

Martin finished the Registered Massage Therapy program at Vancouver Career College. He started his education at Douglas College in Sports Science where his fascination about human anatomy and kinetics began. Here he learned different biomechanics in sports such as volleyball, softball, gymnastics and basketball and also designing recreational activities for children.

In his spare time, he loves to workout at the gym, competes in men’s basketball leagues, enjoys watching pro wrestling and sports entertainment. He also loves to indulge himself in different types of foods and wishes to travel the world to expand his palate in the near future.
