Glenn has been working with Asia Physio since 2013 and has since worked across multiple branches, now living and working back in Tokyo Physio. He completed his Physiotherapy degree in the University of Huddersfield (UK) in 2008, going on to add a post-graduate certification in Spinal Manual Therapy in 2012. He also gained his qualification in bike fitting in 2017.
Glenn has a special interest in the role of muscle imbalances in both injury treatment and prevention, and has had great success in treating chronic and acute conditions with hands-on and exercise therapy. Understanding pain and the science behind it is a new passion, which is ideal for those with persistent pain who are struggling to find answers elsewhere.
A keen sportsman himself, Glenn plays football regularly and is a keen runner, but has also competed in multiple other sports. From this experience he knows how frustrating injuries can be, but also he knows the specific techniques needed in a wide variety of sports to return to play as quick as possible, and importantly, stay injury free.
