Ryan graduated from the University of Prince Edward Island in 2001 (BSc), Sutherland-Chan School and Teaching Clinic in 2002 (RMT), and the Canadian College of Osteopathy in 2024 (DOMP). He completed his thesis titled “The effect of global osteopathic treatment on patients undergoing PTSD rehabilitation as measured by HRV” in 2024 (DScO). Ryan has been a sessional instructor at the Sutherland-Chan massage therapy school for over three years. During this time Ryan taught neurology and MSK theory. He has also supervised general public clinic, stroke clinic, multiple sclerosis clinic, arthritis and joint pain clinic, and the gastrointestinal and gynecological post-surgical onsite clinic at Toronto General Hospital. Ryan was the lone RMT at Bellwood Health Services for over six years. Bellwood is a private mental health facility catering to Canadian civilians, first responders, and military personnel arriving from coast to coast. This establishment helps individuals suffering from various types of mood, trauma, and anxiety disorders, PTSD, addictions, eating disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (in tandem with Sunnybrook Hospital). Ryan brings a wealth of knowledge and experience from his almost 25 years of practice. His philosophy of treatment reflects practice history: a healthy individual is a fragile balance of good mental health and good physical health. The aim of Ryan’s treatments is to harmonize and optimize these aspects of the individual so that people can live more easily in their bodies and in their minds.
