Registered Massage Therapist
James is a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), Registered Manual Osteopath (RMO), Registered Canadian Reflexology Therapist (RCRT). In addition to providing professional treatment for various conditions, James offers Foot Massage, Head and Face Massage sessions as an RMT treatment.
James’s interest in massage therapy started in childhood when he discovered he had an instinct for wanting to help 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 been gradually 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/manual therapist himself.
James devotes himself to global comparative studies of manual therapy education, the practice of different modalities of manual therapy for effective treatment, the optimal portfolio of techniques to treat patients, etc. He is an expert in manual therapy education and practice in North America, Europe, Oceania and Asia. His contributions to the manual therapy industry are as follows:
- Developed a concise summary of the 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.
- Developed 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.
- Developed China Standard Foot Reflexology Routine in English & Chinese by enthusiastically researching and comparing famous reflexology literature and videos, highlighting the manual of Reflexology Association Canada and China Reflexology Association to successfully demystify this world’s most widely used reflexology treatment routine to the Western World.
James graduated from Vancouver College of Massage Therapy (VCMT) with a Diploma in Massage Therapy (DMT) and from National Academy of Osteopathy (NAO) with a Diploma in Osteopathic Manual Practice (DOMP).
