James is a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), Registered Manual Osteopath (RMO), Registered Canadian Reflexology Therapist (RCRT). In addition to providing regular treatment for various conditions, James offers specialized RMT sessions for Osteopathy, Foot Massage, Head & Face Massage, and Visceral Manipulation.

James’s interest in massage therapy began in childhood, when he discovered he had an instinct for helping family members with their aches and pains after long hours at work. Born and raised in China, a country where massage is prevalent, he has gradually become familiar with various styles of massage treatment since he was a teenager. His interest in massage therapy was reinvigorated after experiencing the treatment of RMT in Vancouver, which inspired him to undergo formal education to become a massage therapist himself.

James devotes himself to global comparative studies of manual therapy education, the practice of various modalities of manual therapy for effective treatment, and the optimal portfolio of manual therapy techniques to treat patients. He is proficient in manual therapy education and practice in North America, Europe, Oceania, and Asia. His contributions to the manual therapy industry are as follows:

• 《Taxonomy of Massage Therapy and Manual Osteopathy Techniques》by consolidating the latest research, practicing the related techniques, and re-categorizing all the common massage therapy and manual osteopathy techniques using a systematic taxonomy method recognized by industry-leading professionals.

• 《TUINA VS RMT Essential Techniques Comparison》by intensively researching and comparing the syllabus between China’s four-year Bachelor’s Degree in Acupuncture & Tuina Massage and Canada’s two-year Diploma in Massage Therapy. This is the first time such differences in techniques between the two globally dominant massage/manual therapy systems have been reviewed.
