Glenn White BSc MSc is a Buteyko Institute certified trainer/ trainer practitioner and director of the Buteyko Breathing Clinic in Auckland, New Zealand.
Glenn overcame a lifetime of asthma and allergies after completing a Buteyko breathing programme in 2000. He has been asthma, allergy and drug free since that time. Overcoming a lifetime illness led Glenn to train as a Buteyko Institute practitioner in the UK, returning to open the Buteyko Breathing Clinic in New Zealand.
The clinic specialises in a wide range of breathing-related disorders including snoring, sleep apnoea, asthma, allergies, hay fever, chronic bronchitis, stress-related conditions, panic attacks and chronic fatigue. The clinic also offers specialised programmes for athletes wanting to boost sport performance. As of October 2012, over 5,000 people have attended his clinic for help with breathing disorders.
Glenn has spoken at conferences both nationally and internationally and was part of a group of four practitioners that travelled to Havana, Cuba in 2004 to train 14 practitioners and teach Buteyko to 200 children and adults with asthma. He contributes regular articles on breathing disorders to local media and his work has attracted media interest including a feature on TV's Campbell Live in 2006 and on the series Is Modern Medicine Killing You? screening in 2012.
Glenn is committed to helping incorporate Buteyko into general practice to reduce the burden of breathing disorders like asthma and sleep apnoea in New Zealand and worldwide.
Please contact us if you would like Glenn to present a breathing workshop at your practice.
