our awesome team
Taylor Barnett (she/her), RMT Main Street
Taylor knew she wanted to have a career in healthcare and massage therapy when she was training in elite gymnastics. Her goal is to help patients increase their quality of life, and to give back to the gymnastics community that introduced her to the healthcare profession. Taylor enjoys quiet walks through the forest parks near her home, skiing through the trees up on the mountains of Vancouver, and taking pictures of her cat Memphis in funny costumes.
In 2020 Taylor graduated from San Jose State University with a degree in Kinesiology. During her four years she also competed for the school's gymnastics team. She used this opportunity to learn about the body while performing the sport she loved. She favours General Swedish Massage but is trained in other forms of modalities such as muscle stripping, fascial techniques, trigger point release, and PNF stretching.

Taylor also performs hot stone massage! You can use your benefits toward hot stone massage, provided it is performed by a Registered Massage Therapist.

Robin Martin Seedhouse (he/him), Registered Massage Therapist
Robin has more than 15 years of coaching in gymnastics, circus, strength and conditioning. He is passionate about helping people overcome their physical setbacks and troubleshooting their barriers to progress, which more often than not were injury-related.
His sport training began shortly after walking, when his dad strapped him into skis and pointed him down the bunny run at Cypress. Since then, bouldering, sport climbing and hiking have dominated his free time. His formal training began with gymnastics and trampoline, and over the years has grown to encompass parkour, tricking, breakdancing and martial arts, such as wushu, muay thai, wrestling and jiu jitsu. Robin eventually ran away with the circus, coaching with a focus on ground and partner acrobatics, hand balancing, and teeterboard.
Climbing RMT Robin loves nothing more than helping people come back from puzzling or long term injuries, and seeing the moment when pain free movement is able to click back into place.
