manual therapy industry due to his love for helping people around him
recover from their discomfort, pain and trauma.
He therefore bagged his 3000 hours as an RMT from Makami College in
2021 and went further to attain his MOT diploma from Manual
Osteopathic College of Canada in 2022, thereby boosting his technique
know-how.
Sam’s ideology is engraved in listening to the body of each potential
client he sees and to therefore be a facilitator for balance in their
body either through therapeutic massage, deep tissue massage or
craniosacral therapy.

solidify his base in this manual therapy industry, which in turn will
be of immense benefit to the community he serves with his hands-on
