Pivot Dancer Team, Virtual Strength Coach

Luke completed a 4 year honours degree in kinesiology from the University of Western Ontario then completed his osteopathic training at the Canadian College of Osteopathy where he successfully defended his thesis on the effect of osteopathic treatment and exercise on balance tasks in seniors.

While studying Luke competed as a pentathlete for the Western Mustangs track and field team. This experience opened his eyes to the world of sports medicine and he took a particular interest in sports performance and rehabilitation.

Luke has worked with professional athletes competing in Major League Baseball, the English Premier League and the Bundesliga. He currently serves as the osteopathic manual practitioner for the Curacao men’s national soccer team and is a board member of the Ontario Association of Osteopathic Manual Practitioners.
