Ryks (He/Him) came to Victoria to pursue his diploma from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in 2023. After graduating in 2025, he grew to love this upbeat, outdoorsy community to which he now proudly belongs. Having experienced chronic pain and injury growing up, Ryks aims to use every tool at his disposal to help people move better, and to inspire newfound confidence in their bodies.

In practice, Ryks employs a comprehensive approach that combines manual therapy with movement, stretching, and prescribed exercise. More importantly, when in his office, you can expect a therapist who will listen closely to your concerns, and work together with you to create a treatment plan that’s tailored to your needs. When it comes to his work, Ryks believes in the philosophy that a therapist’s ego should be left at the door. He considers himself fortunate to be integrated into a multidisciplinary team full of experts in their fields so that he can be sure his patients are always getting the answers they deserve. No routine, no overprescription, just quality care with you at the center.

In his free time, Ryks enjoys indoor bouldering and training to hone his skills therein, but he finds outdoor sport climbing to be the most exciting. He has also dabbled in cycling, swimming, and marathon running, leading to his interest in working with other athletes. If he’s not training, Ryks spends his time reading, writing, and playing video games.

Shelby is a Registered Acupuncturist with a passion for movement science and holistic care. Her path to acupuncture started with an interest in movement. She graduated from the University of British Columbia Okanagan in 2019 with a Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Human Kinetics, where she developed a strong foundation of understanding biomechanics, rehabilitation, and human performance. In 2025, Shelby graduated Cum Laude from the Acupuncture program at Pacific Rim College, where she further refined her understanding for the body’s innate ability to heal when properly supported. Shelby brings a nuanced understanding of biomechanics, nervous system regulation, and the mind–body connection into her clinical practice. This integrated perspective allows her to approach treatment with both clinical precision and intuitive, patient-centred care. Shelby’s approach blends Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern movement principles to support pain relief, recovery, nervous system regulation, and overall performance. She is especially passionate about helping active individuals and athletes feel more connected, resilient, and confident in their bodies, on and off the treatment table. Outside of the clinic, you’ll find Shelby running around Beacon Hill Park, attending yoga classes, lifting weights, or experimenting in the kitchen with new recipes.
