About Brian Keene, BS, LMT, CPT, CAFS

professional

Hey y'all, I'm Brian Keene, LMT. I've been working with athletes of all levels going on 20 years now. I'm originally from North Carolina, started working with collegiate athletics at NC State University. A year after graduating, I was laid off from the Carolina Panthers Team Store then moved to Denver, Colorado to work with the Denver Broncos in 2007. After a short seasonal stint in the professional sports retail setting, I went to massage school so I wasn't dependent on someone for a paycheck.

Once I graduated from the massage program, I used my Bachelors of Science in Parks, Recreation and Tourism and ventured into the world of sports event planning entrepreneurship, working a lot of sports events with my then new company, National Sports M.A.P.

During this time I was booking sports massage therapists and athletic trainers, emergency medical technician's and other event personnel at sports tournaments and events around the country. Specifically building the business in Colorado and Southern California, I worked a lot of tennis and volleyball tournaments.  I saw how valuable it was to make connections with the athlete and build relationships at the various tournaments throughout the year.

My Greatest Management Success Was This Sports Tournament

San Diego ITF Senior World Championships

A 14 day tennis tournament, covering 7 sites, 1,100+ athletes, 1 Heart Attack Survivor - required scheduling and managing 78 days worth of practitioner time

From Sports Events & Mobile Massage to Medical Massage, In-office

In March 2020 I was a mobile based massage therapist working at sports events and in client homes throughout Denver metro. Then covid hit.

Since then, I have relocated my office to a great physical therapy office with a gym set-up and cycling classes. The staff we have supporting our work to provide pain relief, sports performance and wellness for our patients is incredible. Between the fun environment and vast knowledge, The FAST Lab is a place all of my clients and patients have appreciated and enjoyed coming to.

Learning various skills and the many specialty Certificates allows me to be more in depth with my hands-on or movement solutions for clients to feel better faster.

Family & Friends

I enjoy traveling to places I'm Licensed to work (Florida, Oregon, Montana, Washington State), going to sports events (Big Fan of the 2023 NBA Champion Denver Nuggets and 2022 NHL Champion Colorado Avs! Lets Go!), concerts and breweries every now and again.

Brian is married to his beautiful wife Tara. They got married in July 2020 in Libby, Montana. Brian and Tara enjoy spending time watching tv, cooking, listening to music, thrifting, Taylor Swift(ing) and snuggling their handsome dog, Montgomery Matthew Von Keene III (also known as Monty, aka Bob Barker.)

My immediate family lives in Denver, Colorado, and while I love spending time with them for entertainment and meals, they are also clients of mine, so you may or may not run in to some of my family in the office. We appreciate your understanding for any interruption you might experience.
