About Christian Burns

Christian Burns, LMT, is a licensed massage therapist practicing in Salt Lake City, Utah. After completing his foundational massage therapy education in 2022, he pursued advanced training in Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques (MAT) through the Freedom from Pain Institute, founded by Eric Dalton. In 2026, he earned the distinction of becoming Utah's only fully Certified Master Myoskeletal Therapist.

​

Driven by a passion for helping athletes and aging adults overcome postural and structural imbalances, chronic pain, and movement dysfunction, Christian takes a comprehensive, evidence-informed approach to care. He specializes in identifying the underlying causes of pain and dysfunction rather than simply treating symptoms, helping clients improve mobility, enhance performance and recovery, reduce discomfort, and return to the activities they enjoy through skilled manual therapy and guided corrective exercises.

​

Christian's treatments integrate advanced clinical techniques with traditional massage therapy, including deep tissue massage, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, Swedish massage, Meridian therapy, acupressure, and both general and sport-specific massage. When appropriate, he also incorporates complementary modalities such as cupping, hot stone therapy, and Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM). To promote lasting results, he provides individualized postural correction, mobility, and stretching exercises that clients can continue at home or in the gym.
