Marley grew up in Whistler with a passion for the outdoors. His early love for skiing naturally extended to other sports offered by the region, including mountain biking, hiking, kayaking and surfing in Tofino. Like many young athletes, Marley faced multiple bike/ski-related injuries, leading to frustration with chronic shoulder pain and immobility.

To pursue his interest in sports and rehabilitation, Marley moved to Vancouver and earned a Bachelor of Kinesiology from the University of British Columbia. He furthered his studies by obtaining his certification in Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST) in Phoenix, Arizona under the guidance of FST founders Ann and Chris Frederick. Marley continued his education with a four year Diploma in Osteopathic Manual Practice (D.O.M.P.) from the  Canadian School of Osteopathy, where he explored the complex biomechanics and interconnections of the body. Driven by a passion for helping others return to their athletic pursuits, Marley combines corrective osteopathic techniques with fascial stretching t enhance mobility, stabilize joints, and alleviate chronic pain.
