Vincent Lam - Registered Massage Therapist

Location: North Burnaby
Languages: English & Cantonese

After being in the finance world for over a decade, I decided to go back to school in 2004 to become a Registered Massage Therapist. I wanted to do something to help people optimize their health and fitness through activity and sport. Born in Thompson, MB, I discovered my love of sports and outdoor recreational activities. In my youth, I was regularly active in competitive sports such as hockey, soccer, baseball and football where injuries were a common occurrence. When seeking help from health care professionals, I continually searched for better and different ways to rehabilitate and recover from injuries. I believe that working with an integrated team is the best way to maximize recovery and achieve success.

As a part of an integrated team, I have been practicing since 2007 and bring many years of experience in Massage Therapy. I attained my Diploma in Massage Therapy from the West Coast College of Massage Therapy. Throughout my years of experience, I have had the opportunity to work with many organizations and teams, such as the Vancouver Whitecaps (USL and MLS), BC Lions, Canadian National Men’s Field Hockey Team, Vancouver Giants Hockey Club (WHL) and the PGA of BC. More recently, I have had the opportunity to work with Team Canada during the 2019 World Junior Hockey tournament. I was also one of the many practitioners who worked as part of the medical team during the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics.

My professional interests include concussion management and treatment and ongoing research with Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE). I have had many years’ experience treating not only sports related injuries, but repetitive and chronic injuries, with an objective to improving the patient’s quality of life and ability to perform daily activities. In my free time, I enjoy playing ice hockey, travelling, hiking and spending time with my family. I am fluent in English and Cantonese.

POSTS BY Vincent Lam:

Trevor is a very knowledgeable physiotherapist. Would recommend for treatment. Vince is also a great RMT. I recommend both for either treatments.

Vince is a master RMT who helps me stay healthy and active.

Vincent is an excellent RMT - he always goes above and beyond - is polite, friendly, kind and really knows his stuff. You can tell he cares for people and is passionate yet extremely professional at his job! I recommend him whole heartedly!!

I can't say anything but complimentary things about the level of care and professionalism I've received from everyone I've seen here.

I see Vincent Lam for massage on a regular basis, and I've seen Dr. Duriell Bernard for chiropractic care from time to time. I've known both gentlemen for years: They've seen me at my lowest with injuries and at my best for maintenance of my musculoskeletal system to support all my physical activities. Whether for hands-on treatment or education about how the body works and how to take care of it, both Vincent and Duriell have definitely improved the quality of my life over the years.

I also saw Christian Morin, physiotherapist, for a couple of appointments when the area in and around my sesamoid bone in my foot flared up. With his IMS, ultrasound, mobilizations, and exercise recommendations, my foot got better quickly in a matter of weeks.

Overall, the caliber of care and service at this Total Therapy is brilliant. I've trusted my musculoskeletal system to their professionals' expertise regularly, and I've always gotten excellent results!

Best Rehabilitation Centre ever! Vincent is a top notch and effective massage therapist. So happy I go there. Mark helped my knee so much. It’s impossible to think what would have happened if he didn’t assess and treat. Absolutely worth going to Total Therapy.

I have been seeing Vince Lam for massage therapy for 8 years. He is a very knowledgeable, skilled and professional practitioner and has assisted my recovery from a number of injuries and overall wellness. I would highly recommend.
