Bart has had an innate interest in healing for years, which has evolved
in its expression over time. A BSc in biology and physics has provided
a scientific foundation for other health related practices that he has
pursued including hatha yoga, mediation, breathwork, whole foods diet,
among other approaches that appreciate the interconnectedness of mind
and body.
His study of bodywork began in Thailand studying Thai massage. Bart
completed massage therapy training in 2004, and has since completed
year 2 of a 5-year part-time program of osteopathy, which has informed
his massage therapy practice significantly.
Osteopathy is a comprehensive form of bodywork that views the body as
an interconnected, integrated whole with the understanding that a
dysfunction in one part of the body can affect the entire body. It
utilizes a number of treatment approaches that are typically gentle and
pain-free.
Treatments informed by his study of osteopathy and remedial exercises
involving therapeutic applications of hatha yoga make Bart’s approach
to Massage Therapy unique and highly effective.
