Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Here is hoping 2024 is a year of adventure, family time and great weather!
My clinic is currently open through the holiday period so if you have any need for physio you can contact me for an appointment.

My clinic will be back open to in-clinic appointments on Wednesday 6th April after I complete my isolation following a positive RAT test.
The good news is because I have been isolating as a household contact since last Friday I have seen no clients through my infectious time. 😀

In level 3 if you have pain/an injury which requires urgent care you are able to see a physio for an in clinic, face to face appointment.

I am double vaccinated and have infection prevention protocols in place including use of appropriate PPE so contact me for an appointment if you have pain/injury which is affecting your function or quality of life.

Embracing the positives of further level 3 ....

1/ Auckland is a beautiful city with lots of outdoor places to explore (beaches, forests, city, parks etc)
2/ I get to spend extra time with my kids in the holidays ... and it will be quality time between their outdoor friend catch ups
3/ I can still help people if needed through digital means
4/ I will have a tidy house ... ok, scrap that one 🤣🤣

Feel free to add your positives to this list in the comments

Yay ... level 3 tomorrow!!

For my clinic this means appointments will continue to be remote via video platforms in order to follow the MOH and NZ Physiotherapy Board guidelines (see below)

In the case of an acute injury you can contact me for an appointment. The initial consultation would be via video where a decision of the most appropriate treatment plan can be made, with appropriate referrals and further consultation if necessary.

Keep up the good work Auckland, stay safe and KEEP SMILING!!

Where I could have been ... but instead, here we are again ... in level 4 Lockdown

​You don't need to BRAVE FACE and 'put up' with your pain/injuries, I am available via video to assess your injury/pain, develop a treatment plan and get you on the road to recovery.

Under current NZ level 4 lockdown no additional payment is required in my clinic for ACC or private consults (a small Koha if you are happy and able would be appreciated). Treatment only available to those in New Zealand.

While Auckland is at Level 3 restrictions my clinic remains open to video consultations. Video offers a platform where a comprehensive evaluation is available, and treatment is through hands off guidance, advice and exercise prescription. If you have an injury this service means you can start/continue treatment with minimal disruption from COVID-19.
Contact me for a video consultation if you would like to get better during Level 3.

Clinic now back open for in clinic treatments with safety/Covid-19 precautions in place (eg/ our 'in your car waiting room'; stunning mask accessories, and the sweet scent of disinfectant).

It's great to be back 'hands on'!!

24/04/2020

LEVEL 3 UPDATE:
At level 3 appointments are available online using video consultations. Clinic will look to reopen for 'hands on' physio consultations once we get to level 2.
If you have any concerns re injuries please contact me/your physio as we can help with advice, education, instruction in what you can do, and by prescribing the most effective exercises for you to do.
Please stay safe and continue to keep those bubbles small so we move to level 2 as soon as possible.

Physios are still available through telehealth – please share with everyone you know. Find a Physio at www.physio.org.nz.

Welcome to my Physio clinic during COVID-19 kevel 4 lockdown. I am available via Telehealth consultations using video as then I can visually assess you, and I can also use video to guide you in what to do within the safety of your own home.
Telehealth is available for ACC and private consultations, and we can complete any necessary 'paperwork' online. I will not be charging any co-payment for ACC telehealth consultations during the 4 week lockdown period.
