Billy’s approach to treatment is to assess each individual condition with; knowledge, compassion, empathy and a smile.

He has provided treatments for the dancers of the Arts Umbrella School of Dance and continues to provide treatments with Ballet BC.

Billy understands we live in a world of constant go, people are constantly on the move with always something to do and very little time for themselves. For many people, health and well-being does not make the priority list. The human body and mind are an incredible machine with incredible capabilities of performance and healing. Billy believes that massage therapy is a significant and integral component in achieving optimal human performance.

Billy’s journey to massage began when he experienced the benefits of seeing an RMT during the rehabilitation of his own injuries. Without the help of a massage therapist he would not have been able to return to his passions of physical fitness activities.

When Billy is not practicing he enjoys small adventures, weight training and a love for food. He is an avid animal lover and you might just see him at the local parks with his wife and dog. Bill has an intimate connection with the water and enjoys the many activities it has to offer.
