Hi. I'm Glen, level 4 Sports Massage Therapist and founder of GeneRate Sports Massage Therapy. After retiring as a Police Detective with over 20 years service, I decided to help others improve sports performance and enhance physical and mental wellbeing through massage therapy.

Through most of my life, I have advocated health and fitness and sought to help others achieve physical wellness. I enjoy the gym, in particularly weight training which I mix with cardio exercise to keep an overall balance of fitness. I also like to get out on my road bike when I can though those competing in the Tour de France can relax as I wont be threatening them any time soon.

The famous physician Hippocrates once quoted "anyone wishing to study medicine must master the art of massage" . I'm certainly no Physician but the meaning of this quote was about the emphasis of massage and understanding the physical and mechanical aspects of it in the context of healing the body. I look at massage as a way of restoring balance, relieving muscle tension, improving blood flow and promoting an overall sense of wellbeing. Its roots can be traced back nearly 5000 years in Indian and Chinese civilisations where it was used to treat ailments, balance energy and promote health, vitality and wellbeing.

Generating Health, Vitality, and Wellness through Massage.

My approach to sports massage focuses on each client's needs. I work with various clients, from runners and ultrarunners of all levels preparing for races, footballers, cyclists to individuals dealing with conditions like Plantar Fasciitis, joint pain, restricted mobility and anxiety. My treatments are designed to ensure that anyone leaving after a session leaves with an overall feeling of physical and mental improvement.
