Born and raised in Chilliwack, BC, Antonio’s passion for health and fitness arose from his extensive sport history; competing at high levels for the majority of his life as a soccer goalkeeper. He has also competed in other sports such as traditional Shido-Kan Karate and Rugby to name a few. In 2015 Antonio graduated with a Bachelor’s of Kinesiology degree from the University of the Fraser Valley and has worked ever since as a Kinesiologist in good standing with British Columbia Association of Kinesiologists throughout the Fraser Valley and the Greater Vancouver Area focusing primarily on Active Rehabilitation. Here his focus has been bringing patients back to normal function and improving their quality of life through detailed assessments and individualized program plans.
To be a more effective practitioner for his patients, Antonio graduated from Vancouver College of Massage Therapy completing their rigorous 20 month, 3000 hour program in the top of his class and being recognized on the Dean’s List in December of 2019. Since graduating, Antonio has worked with patients with various injuries and conditions which include but are not limited to those with Alzheimer’s/dementia, spinal trauma, strains/sprains, chronic pain, TOS, and post-MVI injuries.
In his spare time, Antonio can be found with his puppy Juniper outside playing soccer, camping, kayaking, hiking, fishing, or simply exploring the backcountry.
