A note to new and returning clients: Due to a recent addition to our family, I am not able to offer as many appointment spots as previously. As a result my schedule fills up quickly, requiring bookings far in advance. However, adding yourself to the wait-list is a great way to secure an appointment sooner, as cancellations do routinely occur. Please note that wait-list openings are offered on a first come, first served basis. Thank you for understanding.
My home-based clinic is located on the ground floor at 4909 Bowness Avenue.
The clinic entrance is on the left side of the building, via the carport.
Feel free to park right in front of the carport or anywhere else on the gravel lot if that spot is occupied.
If you arrive early, please feel free to come in - I have a dedicated waiting area inside. If the door is locked, I am still with another client.
Direct Billing:
I offer direct billing via Pacific Blue Cross, Canada Life, Sunlife, Manulife, Green Shield, Group Health, and others. If you do not see your insurance provider on the list when booking, please don’t hesitate to ask.
I do not direct bill to ICBC, WSBC, or MSP at this time, but can provide receipts for you to claim on your own behalf.
If you have any questions, the best way to reach me is via email: ilyasamutin.rmt@gmail.com.
I look forward to working with you!

Our bodies have an incredible capacity for healing, adaptation, and resilience. This is a key concept that guides Ilya’s practice as he works with each patient to address their specific concerns and develop a well-rounded treatment approach to help them reach their health goals.
Ilya has been a practicing RMT since 2017, but his passion for health and wellness extends much further back. Through martial arts, resistance training, yoga, and rock climbing, he’s spent years exploring movement and the body’s potential—experiences that have shaped his understanding of its capabilities, limitations, and injuries.
Drawing on this background, along with eight years of clinical and spa experience, Ilya’s treatments blend therapeutic and relaxation-based techniques. Myofascial and trigger-point release, joint mobilizations, and Swedish massage commonly find their place in his sessions, offering a well-rounded approach to care.
He places strong emphasis on patient education—helping people understand the “why” behind their pain and giving them the tools to take an active role in their recovery through movement, stretching, and exercise.
Originally from Russia and raised in Vancouver, Ilya has called Powell River home for the past five years. Once drawn here by the coast’s rugged beauty and laid-back rhythm, he now finds joy in sharing that lifestyle with his young family. Outside the clinic, he’s a proud dad, and does his best to maintain his own health through hiking, backpacking, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with the little free time he has!
