Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) is a physiotherapy technique aimed at alleviating pain and addressing muscle dysfunction. The method involves inserting fine needles into specific points in the muscle tissue, commonly known as trigger points or taut bands, to stimulate a healing response. IMS serves two primary purposes: providing relief from chronic pain, especially when traditional treatments have proven ineffective, and addressing muscle imbalances, tightness, and dysfunction.
The procedure entails inserting a thin needle into the muscle at the site of pain or trigger points. This insertion creates a small, controlled injury that causes the muscle to contract and then relax, which can enhance blood flow, reduce muscle tension, and facilitate healing. Additionally, IMS influences the nervous system by targeting abnormal nerve signals that contribute to pain and dysfunction.
The benefits of IMS include significant pain relief for many patients and improved muscle function and mobility by addressing muscle tightness and trigger points.


Physiotherapy - Laser Therapy Treatments

Laser therapy, also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or cold laser therapy, is a non-invasive treatment used in physiotherapy to promote healing and reduce pain and inflammation. It employs low-intensity lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to target specific tissues and facilitate cellular processes.


Physiotherapy - TMJ Treatments

Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) treatments in physiotherapy aim to address issues related to the TMJ, which connects the jawbone to the skull. Disorders of the TMJ can lead to pain, dysfunction, and limited jaw movement. Physiotherapy can help manage these symptoms and improve jaw function through various techniques.

James is a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) and Registered Canadian Reflexology Therapist (RCRT). Besides providing professional treatment for various conditions, James includes full sessions of China Foot Reflexology, Indian Head Massage, and Facial Massage as an RMT treatment.

James’ interest in massage started in childhood when he discovered he had an instinct for wanting to help family members with their aches and pains after long hours at work. Being born and raised in China, a country where massage is prevalent, he has been gradually familiar with various styles of massage treatment since he was a teenager. His interest in massage therapy was reinvigorated after experiencing the treatment of RMT in Vancouver and inspired him to undergo formal education to become an RMT himself.

• Developed ‘TUINA VS RMT Essential Techniques Comparison’ by intensively researching and comparing the syllabus between China’s four-year Bachelor’s degree in massage and Canada’s two-year diploma in massage therapy. This is the first time such differences in techniques between the two globally dominant massage therapy systems have been reviewed.

• Developed ‘China Standard Foot Reflexology Routine’ in English & Chinese by enthusiastically researching and comparing famous reflexology literature and videos, highlighting the manual of Reflexology Association Canada and China Reflexology Association to successfully demystify this world’s most widely used reflexology treatment routine to the Western World.

James graduated from Vancouver College of Massage Therapy (VCMT) with a Diploma in Massage Therapy (DMT).
