Reiki Master/Teacher
Iain specializes in treatment-oriented massage therapy, combining integrated manual therapy techniques with focused deep tissue work to address and release tension patterns held in the body. He has been a full-time practicing licensed massage therapist since 2010, and treats a wide range of musculoskelatal conditions through his practice, including back and neck pain, sciatica, tension headaches, migraines, whiplash, shoulder pain, upper cross syndrome, carpal tunnel, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, and more.
Iain takes a holistic, whole body approach to understanding and addressing the underlying tension patterns in the body that lead to pain and dysfunction. Often, pain and tension in the muscles and other soft tissues are the end result of a series of compensations the body is utilizing in response to structural, postural, or physiological dysfunctions. These dysfunctions can be caused by a combination of factors including soft tissue injury, poor posture, improper body mechanics, dehydration, sedentary lifestyle, lack of flexibility, and stress. Iain's approach is to work with each client, respecting the body's innate intelligence and ability to heal itself, and through addressing the root causes of pain and tension help facilitate increased mobility and improved functioning.
Iain is currently working towards earning a Masters of Acupuncture and East Asian Medicine from Middle Way Acupuncture Institute in beautiful Mt Vernon, WA, and will be graduating in September, 2024. He looks forward to being able to add acupuncture and herbal medicine to his practice in the future.
