Greg has been a Registered Massage Therapist for over 15 years and specializes in deep tissue therapeutic massage. He treats a wide range of conditions including; sports injuries, muscle strains, head aches, back pain (including pain associated with herniated discs), shoulder pain (including frozen shoulder), forearm pain (including tennis and golfer’s elbow) and more. He regularly works on athletes at various levels of competition as well as arm chair athletes to get them moving again. While studying massage therapy Greg wrote a paper about muscle injuries of musicians which was later used in several University manuals as part of their music programs.
After being disappointed watching a trainer at the gym disregard a client’s pain and then ask Greg for help with his own injury, Greg decided to teach trainers about injuries. He began doing seminars, workshops and Lunch ‘n’ Learns at gyms throughout the GTHA. Topics include; Common Musculoskeletal Injuries – How to prevent them and treat them, Stretching, Massage for Beginners, Stress and the effects it has on your body and more. Greg has also been a Personal Fitness trainer who hosted his own fitness show for 2 seasons called, “Flex For Fitness.” A TV show that catered to the 40+ demographic who wanted to maintain a youthful looking body. He continues to train people and does online lifestyle coaching for people who want to improve their overall health and well being.
In 2022 Greg began bodybuilding and placed 2nd in Canada on his 2nd competition ever in Men’s Masters Physique 50+. In 2023 Greg won the National title and in 2024 despite having Covid and not being able to workout leading up to the National final, he still managed to place 5th in Men’s Physique Masters 45+ and was the top 55+ athlete. He also went to Europe to compete in France where he placed 3rd in Men’s Physique Masters 45+ and was again the top athlete over 55years.
Greg also started his own brand of gym gear called Gym Monster which will be available for purchase online here soon.
