Chris's journey in the fitness industry began in 1998 in downtown Toronto, where he started as a personal trainer and boxing coach. His passion for strength and conditioning, as well as rehabilitation, led him to pursue higher education to better serve individuals with physical training and rehabilitation needs.
After commencing his studies at the University of Toronto, Chris transitioned to Sheridan College's Athletic Therapy Program, where he graduated in 2007 with a Bachelor of Applied Health Science Degree, specializing in Athletic Therapy. He furthered his expertise by obtaining National Athletic Therapy Certification with the Canadian Athletic Therapist Association and later pursued Massage Therapy at Sutherland-Chan School in Toronto, earning his diploma and registration with the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario.

His clinical expertise encompasses therapeutic modalities such as ultra-sound, TENS, IFC, neuromuscular stimulation, low-level laser, cryo-therapy, thermal therapy, athletic taping and bracing, and kinesio-taping, all tailored to optimize healing and recovery based on individual conditions.
In his private practice in downtown Toronto, Chris employs a unique combination of manual and exercise therapy grounded in osteopathic and sports medicine philosophies. With a focus on resolving injuries, improving function, and enhancing performance, Chris creates an environment that supports lifelong progression in any chosen hobby, leisure activity, or sport.
