Erwin was a competitive volleyball player growing up, and is no stranger to pain and injuries. He was first introduced to the health field after being involved in a rear end vehicle collision en route to a tournament. With the help of an RMT and physical therapist, Erwin was able to minimize the recovery time and get back on the court.
He found passion in being an active part of his rehabilitation. This led him to pursue a career in Massage Therapy to provide knowledge and experience to help others regain confidence in their bodies, and empower them to be an integral part of their own recovery.
Outside of work, you can find Erwin at the gym or hiking the many beautiful mountains of Vancouver!
