Mark Bentz

Mark Bentz is the owner and founder of Vancouver Physiotherapy Hub, Everest Therapeutics and Electra Health. Mark has been in the industry for over 25 years. He received his massage therapy certification in 1995 and founded Everest Therapeutics in 2001. In 2007, he opened Electra Health - one of the largest multidisciplinary clinics in Canada. Mark has taught at Westcoast College of Massage Therapy (WCCMT), served as VP for the Canadian Massage Therapy Alliance and provides mentorship and coaching to therapists and clinic owners across Canada and the US. Mark was diagnosed with a degenerative eye disease at the age of 9. By the age of 19, he had lost virtually all of his eyesight. Yet, he has never allowed the loss of his sight stop him from achieving his goals: Mark started out as a competitive alpine skier, making headlines in 1984 when he won 2 gold medals at the Winter Paralympic Games in Innsbruck, Austria. This athletic path took him from alpine skiing to hockey, where he is an active member of the Canadian Blind Hockey Association, and spends his spare time teaching visually impaired youth and young adults to build resilience through hockey. As a massage therapist and a former pro-athlete, Mark’s mission is to bring together a group of passionate, dedicated and talented health practitioners to provide exceptional therapy to the downtown Vancouver community. At Vancouver Physiotherapy Hub, our approach to physiotherapy is unique: we know a multidisciplinary approach to treatment will bring about the best outcome for our patients and as such, we incorporate a variety of different techniques and modalities into treatment. At Vancouver Physiotherapy Hub, you can trust that you are in the best hands!
