Dip RM, Cert ART, Cert Dry Needling
I’m Garry Luke. I work in the health and wellness industry and I specialise in remedial massage.
I’m known for helping people get out of pain fast. I'm great at helping active people overcome and prevent injuries and I also work effectively with chronic pain.
I have been lucky enough to do a lot of work with top sporting teams including those from the NRL, AFL and national cricket. In 2010 I was honoured to be asked to write a new course for the NSW School of Massage, as part of their very successful Diploma of Remedial Massage. This year long course which I now teach extends knowledge of anatomy and physiology for massage therapists and gives them a wider range of tools to treat injuries.
Because of my commitment to integrated therapies, I also work closely with leading Sydney Physiotherapists and Chiropractors.
Through my years as a health care provider I have recognised 3 fundamental problems that people face when it comes to musculoskeletal health:
1. they are in pain
2. they have tried lots of things
3. they can’t find the solution
I have found that my combination of diagnostic abilities and the range of massage techniques I have at my disposal means I have a very high success rate in bringing relief and restoring health. Just some of the specialities I draw on are ART (active release techniques), dry needling, deep tissue and trigger point therapies. I also have deep expertise in stretching and strengthening partly as a result of my background in Yoga. My experience is that this kind of diversity is rare, but it’s really necessary for success.
As a massage trainer and teacher I am passionate about educating and inspiring Remedial massage therapists to provide a systematic treatment of injuries. My big passion in remedial massage is to have it become a recognised primary treatment for soft tissue injuries.
As a passionate health care provider I believe there has never been a better time for people to take control of their health and well being.
When people are in control of their health they can live a happier and more stress free life and world full of happy and relaxed people is a world I want to live in.
