Ryan Cole LMT
My Story
My name is Ryan H. Cole. I began my career as a massage therapist after my own battle for health. When I was 23 years old I was in a car accident that broke my neck.
I was misdiagnosed for 5 1/2 years. I suffered from black outs, nausea, vomiting, migraines, irritable bowel, lung problems and heart palpitations. I was mostly bedridden for 3 1/2 years and couldn't hold my head up for more than 45 minutes at a time. I went from 220 lbs to 420 lbs, sometimes gaining 20 lbs in a single day. My body started shutting down and the doctors told my family to take me home and let me die. It was after this that I met a group of specialists that saved my life. Lynn Van Norman LMT, Dr. Diane Monger DC, and Dr. Patrick Wedlake together, combined with my determination and God's grace saved my life.
I went to Lane Community College to start massage therapy certification and passed the state board and national exam in December 2004. I started practicing the following month and have been in business ever since then.
