Brandon Lewis graduated from First College Massage Therapy program in Kelowna in August 2022. Brandon previously worked in construction management in both commercial and residential projects in Kelowna. His decision to re-educate and pursue massage therapy was motivated by a passion for sports and more specifically the human expression of movement.

For Brandon, massage therapy offers a hands-on, movement-based approach to healing and recovery. He takes a blended approach to massage that focuses on evidenced-based results while honoring traditional and contemporary massage styles to create a holistic healing experience. His current methodology contains a mix of Swedish, Myofascial, and Functional Release Therapy techniques. Brandon’s goals are to create a safe environment where the patient experiences a sense of health and wellness, and to team up with the patient to create a collaborative path back to doing what they love and mitigating re-injury.

Brandon enjoys spending time with his wife and 4 children outside of work, including camping, adventuring, and watching/coaching his children’s sports. He enjoys biking, running, basketball, ultimate frisbee, and skiing.

A little about me…

Prior to moving permanently from England to Kelowna I spent 6 years chasing winters between Canada and New Zealand pursuing my passion of teaching skiing and snowboarding. During this time I suffered various injuries and truly discovered the many benefits massage therapy has to offer (along with the frustrations involved with long rehabilitation periods!).

In my practice I strive to help my patients overcome their own physical set backs and get them back to living life to the fullest. Whether that’s being able to play with your kids pain free, get through a day of work without a headache or achieving a personal best in your sport, I can help.

Where possible I aim to identify and treat the cause of your concerns and to do this I will always carry out a full assessment and implement a personally tailored treatment plan to suit your needs. I also like to engage my patients in their wellness journey so don’t be surprised to receive a little homecare advice before you leave! Don’t worry though, this will usually be a simple stretch or a gentle strengthening exercise to help you reach your goals faster.
