Daren Falconer, Massage Student Graduate
Meet our newest Massage Therapist, Daren! What makes Daren unique is his interest in how the body responds to exercise. He is passionate about helping clients not only recover from their workouts but also prevent injuries. Through personalized massage plans, he focuses on reducing muscle soreness, improving circulation, and increasing range of motion so clients can perform their best, recover faster, and stay injury-free.
What drew Daren to massage therapy was the opportunity to combine his love for fitness with his desire to help others live healthier, pain-free lives. He wanted to become someone who could support people through the challenges of physical activity, offering them relief, recovery, and the tools to maintain long-term health. Daren finds it incredibly rewarding to help individuals feel better, get back to their workouts, and achieve their fitness goals in a safe and effective way.
For fun, Daren enjoys a mix of creative and active pursuits. He is an avid reader, a fan of both video and board games, and he loves making digital and physical art. Staying fit is also important to him, with a focus on strength training and cardio to stay energized and balanced.
Daren graduated from Robertson College in August of 2025, and is looking forward to treating you at Massage Addict-St Vital!
