From ACL injury to national champion 🏆

18 months ago, Anthony came to us after rupturing his ACL with a goal to get back on the water. Last week, he’s taken out the open men’s title at the New Zealand wakeboarding nationals!

Amanda and Laura have been working with him on his rehab and we couldn’t be more proud of the work he put in to get here.

To anyone in the thick of a long rehab right now, this is what the other side looks like 🙌🌊

This weeks Inservice was a good one 🧡 - an ‘inservice’ is part of our teams ongoing learning, which is a big part of how we show up for our patients!

Ashleigh (our awesome Wintec student) took us through a case study on the value of strengthening and high intensity training for older adults - covering functional independence and bone density💪

Then Rebecca and Katy ran a quick session on keeping kids engaged during physio for ankle injuries (because making treatment fun is a skill in itself) 🎉

Barry wrapped things up by introducing the new knee braces and wrist supports we’re now stocking in clinic!

What a night 🙌 On Monday, our very own Amanda Foster took the stage at the Waikato Sports Medicine evening on ‘The Team Behind the Team’ - sharing the real stories of clinical practice in high performance sport alongside Dr Deb Robinson and Teresa Te Tamaki

From communication under pressure to building trust with athletes, the room was full of practical takeaways and real-world stories that reminded us why we do what we do 🧡

We’re so proud to have Amanda’s expertise and experience on our team! Thank you SMNZ Waikato for an incredible evening ✨

These are a few movements we commonly use to help with lower back pain!

Keep it gentle, stay within a comfortable range and as always, if your lower back pain is consistent - it’s worth getting it checked out! 🧡

It’s International Women’s Day, and we’re celebrating the incredible women who make Active Health what it is! The women who move, inspire, and make a difference in our community every day.

We asked them - “what does being a woman in health or sport mean to you?” and here’s what they had to say 🧡

We’re proud to celebrate the women helping shape the future of health, sport, and rehabilitation

🎉 She's BACK! A huge welcome back to Jill!

After her knee replacement late last year, she's back and better than ever! We've missed her and couldn't be happier to have her back! 🧡

It's Endometriosis Awareness Month 🧡 this year's theme is 'your story is shaping our future' and we want to be part of changing it.

For too long, endo has been dismissed, misdiagnosed, and misunderstood. The average diagnosis takes 8–10 years. That is not okay.

And even after diagnosis, so many women don't know that women's health physiotherapy can make a real difference to their quality of life.

Here's what Laura (our wonderful Women's & Pelvic Health physio) sees in the clinic regularly:
A pelvic floor that's been guarding against pain for years - holding tension it doesn't know how to release. This is called overactivity, and downtraining it can be genuinely life-changing.

Women's physio can also address:
✨ Bladder and bowel dysfunction
✨ Pain with s*x and daily movement
✨ Trigger points in the abdominal wall and pelvic floor
✨ Scar tissue mobility after surgery
✨ Building strength and returning to exercise with confidence
& more!

Your story matters. Sharing it - with your physio, your GP, your gynaecologist - is how we build better care for every woman who comes after you 🧡
