Growing up, Luke has always loved sport, taking every chance possible to get outside and enjoy being overly competitive. At the age of 13, he started Triathlon which quickly became his passion. After facing an overuse injury before a championship race, Luke was seen by a sports massage therapist who aided his recovery and quickly got him back up and running in time for the event. This sparked a fascination with the human body and how different techniques and exercises can aid and accelerate healing.

From this point, Luke decided to study Sports Therapy to grow his knowledge in how the use of these techniques can not only aid sports injuries and performance but also benefit patients from all walks of life, suffering from both chronic or acute injuries.

Luke takes a practical approach to sports massage treatment, incorporating assisted mobilisation techniques and trigger point therapy along with the use of the Graston tool as part of IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation). The Graston tool is on its journey into the world of rehabilitation as more studies are conducted on its benefits for aiding natural healing responses, muscle repair, and the breakdown of myo-fascial adhesions. The use of the Graston allows therapists to promote physiological changes to specific problem areas.

Luke is fascinated by the biomechanics of the human body and how movement patterns can cause and aid injury both through everyday muscular and postural imbalances but also in athletes who face musculoskeletal issues due to participation in sports with asymmetrical movement patterns.

Luke is an accredited member of the FHT with an ITEC Level 3 diploma in Sports Massage Therapy and is on his CPD pathway to grow his skills and knowledge to be able to provide the best care possible.
