R.M.T., Manual Therapist
Founder of Wellspring Therapy Group
Sean has been practicing manual therapy, therapeutic massage and body / mind energy medicine in Alberta since 1995. He began in Banff as 1 of the first 3 therapists to be hired on at the inception of the spa at the Fairmont Banff Springs but actually began practicing acupressure as a child. He was taught how to do acupressure and reflexology by his physiotherapist mother and grandmother. At age 14, he took his first course in Therapeutic Touch™.
He has worked on over 25,000 clients to date and developed a framework for optimal health around the tools and protocols developed through over two decades of dedicated study and clinical experience.
His educational history includes massage therapy at the [Edgar] Cayce/Reilly School of Massotherapy in Virginia Beach and the Alberta College of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. It was while studying Chinese medicine that Sean realized his true calling was to work with hands and words instead of needles and herbs. He has acquired certificates in over 60 healthcare modality workshops including Jin Shin Do Bodymind Acupressure, and Parama Bodytalk. He has instructed courses in anatomy, physiology, pathology and massage therapy at the Wild Rose College of Natural Healing for several years and currently continues study with the Connecticut School of Integrative Manual Therapy.
