Listening to Dr. Nicole & Jesse Cozean on the Pelvic PT Rising podcast reinforces a critical principle: functional training is key to sustaining pelvic floor rehab outcomes.
Pilates offers an evidence-based approach to this, with Hein et al. demonstrating its effectiveness in improving stress urinary incontinence through a 12-week pelvic floor-strengthening program.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy isn't just for new mums — it can benefit people of all ages, all genders who are dealing with issues related to the pelvic floor. But pelvic health physiotherapy is not just for “issues” — it’s also helpful for prevention, performance, and education! This safe, evidence-based approach to your treatment can significantly improve quality of life.

This week is Cancer Rehab Awareness Week in Aotearoa, a time to highlight the importance of rehabilitation as part of cancer care.

At PEAK, we are proud to offer specialised cancer rehabilitation services through the internationally recognised PINC & STEEL programs. Our trained physiotherapists are certified to deliver tailored rehabilitation support to people affected by cancer.

Why cancer rehab matters:
Cancer and its treatments can result in long-term physical and emotional challenges, including fatigue, pain, reduced mobility, and loss of function. Cancer rehabilitation helps individuals regain strength, improve quality of life, and return to work and everyday activities with confidence.

Our services include:
PINC Program – designed to provide individualised support for women recovering from all types of cancer, from diagnosis through to survivorship.
STEEL Program – developed specifically for men, focusing on rebuilding strength, function and wellbeing during and after cancer treatment.

Get involved or find support:
If you or someone you know is living with cancer, rehabilitation can make a significant difference in recovery. Contact us to find out more about accessing these services or to refer a patient.

Together, we can ensure that every New Zealander affected by cancer has access to the rehabilitation they deserve.

In a recent inservice we dove into the connection between mind & the body.

A randomised control study on 11 dental students found that a small wound took 40% longer to heal under high stress during exam time vs the same wound during vacation. Levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (critical to healing) dropped by 68% when under stress.

Your body's ability to recover is deeply connected to your mental state. At our clinic, we take a whole-person approach. Movement, breath, and balance matter - especially when life feels overwhelming.

Running is powerful way to support your whole-body health from head to toe.

Here’s what lacing up your runners can do for you -
Mental health: Releases endorphins, reduces stress, and improves mood.
Cardiovascular health: Strengthens your heart and improves circulation.
Bone density: Weight-bearing movement helps keep bones strong and resilient.
Joint health: When done with proper form and recovery, running supports joint mobility and strength.
Energy levels: Boosts stamina and fights fatigue.
Cognitive function: Increases blood flow to the brain, enhancing focus and memory.

At PEAK, we combine physiotherapy and Pilates to help you run better, recover smarter, and move with purpose. Whether you're new to running or chasing PBs, we're here to support your journey.
