Max was trained in Halifax Nova Scotia. He graduated from The Canadian College of Massage and Hydrotherapy in the spring of 2016. It was there that he began to refine his skills with a focus mostly on sports related treatment approaches.

He has since continued his training and learned more subtle yet still effective ways to treat as well. Max does believe that deep pressure is not the answer to every problem and more subtle approaches have proven to be equally as effective in many cases.

Addressing your current physical issues or future ones, whether clear or hidden, it is Max’s job to help you function the best you possibly can. Reading the signs that your body is showing, understanding what it means and implementing a plan to assist in your physical and mental improvement is his goal.

Exercise is vital to his physical, mental and emotional state of mind. From a long pursued practice in martial arts and strength training, he has learned many ways to prevent himself from being sidelined from physical vulnerabilities. He has kept learning in order to help others.

* NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS*

I was raised in the Kootenays, and in my early twenties, moved to Vernon to complete my schooling at the ​Okanagan Valley College of Massage Therapy (OVCMT) in 2010. Right after graduating, I moved to Chilliwack, where I opened my very first clinic.

I spent five successful years living and running my business in Chilliwack, The Healing Oak, but I missed the Okanagan lifestyle. I sold my clinic and moved back to Vernon in 2016.

In January 2018, my dear friend and colleague Josie Teitge, moved to Vernon, and we found the perfect space to open a business together: our beautiful clinic, Okanagan Sage.

I have a son, daughter and a golden retriever that keep me very busy when I am not in the clinic, as well as running my home based clinic from Falkland, BC.

I love to work with a wide variety of people with a tendency to gravitate towards pre and post natal clients as well as infants. I truly love what I do and feel so grateful to be able to work in such great communities.
