I have always been interested in health and I am very grateful that through Massage Therapy I am able to contribute to the well being of others.

To do so in a place that has become my home in a new country is even more gratifying.
I moved to Margaree as a teenager, after my family and I immigrated from Germany in search of a different way of life.

In my free time I like to live an active lifestyle. During the summer I play soccer and flyfish on the Margaree.
I started to surf while traveling through Central America. Now I search for waves on Cape Breton's coastline.

I hold a diploma in Massage Therapy from the Canadian College of Massage & Hydrotherapy in Bedford, NS. The level of education in Nova Scotia for Massage Therapy is of highest international standards with a 2 year degree.

I'm registered with the Massage Therapy Association of Nova Scotia and am required to keep educating myself.
I am now in my fourth year of practising Massage Therapy.

Testimonials

After suffering from two major accidents 6 months apart, which included a fractured neck and further soft tissue injury, I knew that a knowledgeable, caring and trusting Massage Therapist would be important in the strengthening and healing of my neck and upper back. I was referred to Roman Buchhofer by my Physiotherapist in July 2006. Since that time I have experienced fewer muscle spasms and headaches, and my neck mobility has improved. Roman always listens to my concerns and needs each session and then uses his knowledge to explain how to proceed. He is thorough, sensitive and very effective. Rhonda Roach, Cheticamp

Recently I received Massage Therapy at East Coast Therapeutics. Roman approached my treatment in a confident and competent manner. The results were very positive. I am delighted that you have chosen to work in our community. We are very fortunate to have your service. I wish you every success. Elizabeth Mac Farlane, Margaree

I have been bothered with a sore neck since over a month now. To this date, I have had three Massage Therapy sessions with Roman and my pain lessened by approximately 75% thus far. I have found that the sessions have indeed been a big help. Stella McDaniel, Margaree

I have Fibromyalgia and when the pain gets extensive, the medical specialists have recommended Massage Therapy as a means of controlling the pain. That being the case, I was a patient at Roman Buchhofer’s Massage Therapy Clinic in Margaree for approximately a year. During that entire period, having massages from Roman greatly helped with my pain management. He was thoroughly professional and keenly interested in ensuring that I was getting positive results from the sessions. I felt great and pain free after every session. He is extremely knowledgeable of his profession and how the human body works and how Massage Therapy can help. I would highly recommend his clinic to anyone in need of a massage.
