Marcel comes to Geometry with over 25 years of sport medicine and health care experience. Marcel is a Registered Massage Therapist and an Athletic Therapist giving him a unique approach to healthcare; his approach to wellness is movement based combining traditional therapy with strength training strategies. As a massage therapist his approach is a myofascial release base combined with postural alignment strategies including joint mobilization, muscle energy and tissue release techniques. As an Athletic Therapist Marcel incorporates applied neurology as part of his treatment protocol. Applied neurology involves techniques that calm the brain which quite often is the main limiting factor in returning to optimal health. Whether you are looking for treatment for an acute sport injury, rehab from a surgical procedure, recovery from a hard workout or just a relaxation massage, Marcel has you covered. The end goal is always to help clients become more robust and to continue to live a healthy active life. While Marcel has worked his entire career with elite athletes at World championships and Olympic games his motto has always been “you don’t have to be a world class athlete to receive world class treatment!” When not in the clinic you can find Marcel in Vancouver’s alpine, on his road bike or camping in the backcountry. If you have time to spare, ask Marcel about his never-ending quest to brew the perfect espresso.
