JEFFREY COTTAM

 

Jeffrey was born in Manchester, England and trained and certified in Myomassology Massage in the USA. He is also a Doctor of Acupuncture, a Certified Reflexologist and a Certified Cranio Sacral Therapist. He opened his own school of Natural Medicine called Aromatica in June 1997. He was responsible for introducing Myomassology into Canada at this time, along with many other forms of bodywork training such as Tui Na Therapy (Chinese Medical Massage) for the first time. His own studies and private practice formulated a form of therapy for his own clients to combat muscular pain which he named and trademarked called Contraction Release Therapy™ (CRT). Students of Myomassology and Canadian health care consumers, in turn, have benefitted from these therapeutic techniques because of this.

 

In 2002  Jeffrey was presented with the prestigious “Myomassologist of the Year Award” by his US counterparts and peers at the International Myomassethics Federation’s annual conference which included an additional 2 Service Award Medals. This North America-wide award has never honoured a non-US citizen before.

 

Cottam runs a successful private practice as well as teaching Myomassology each year. He has not had a break from teaching his Myomassology program since he first introduced it into Canada, which is a powerful testament to the popularity of Myomassology in Canada and to Cottam’s vision
