INTRODUCING YIMIN! ❤️
Registered Osteopath
PGDip.Ost, B.MSK, Health | OCNZ & ACC Registered

Yimin is a caring and attentive osteopath dedicated to supporting patients in reducing pain, restoring movement, and improving overall wellbeing. She adopts a holistic, patient-centred approach, recognising that each individual’s health journey is unique.

With a strong foundation in musculoskeletal health, Yimin is particularly interested in chronic pain management, postural conditions, and functional rehabilitation. Her treatment style integrates a variety of osteopathic techniques — from gentle hands-on therapy to more direct approaches — complemented by practical exercise advice and lifestyle strategies to promote long-term recovery.

Her passion for osteopathy stems from a deep interest in the human body and a genuine desire to help people return to the activities they value most. Yimin strives to create a safe, supportive environment where patients feel heard, understood, and empowered in their healthcare journey.

From Hastings to Shanghai 🌏
Benedicte recently supported a teacher on a Barral VM5 visceral osteopathy course, supporting new students while deepening her own visceral and emotional work.

Teaching, learning, and sharing across cultures — and even celebrating her birthday with the students 🎂
A beautiful reminder of how osteopathy connects us worldwide.

🌿 Welcome to the team, Yimin! 🌿

We’re excited to welcome Yimin, our newest osteopath, to the Tūī Osteopathy team!

Yimin has recently joined us and we’re so pleased to have her on board. She’s looking forward to meeting our patients and being part of the Tūī Osteopathy whānau.

Keep an eye out — we’ll be sharing more about Yimin closer to her start date in February👀✨

First things first- it’s just rained in Whitianga hence the muddy socks🤣
And secondly- yes… I gave myself bilateral Achilles tendinopathy😬
I’m an osteopath. I should know better!
Playing football 3x a week for 2 months with zero consistent strength work caught up with me ⚽️🙃

What is Achilles tendinopathy?
It’s not inflammation — it’s a load problem.
Too much, too soon, without the tendon being strong enough to cope = pain, stiffness, regret.

⸻

Why this rehab?

🔹 Isometrics – 4×45s
Helps reduce pain and improve tendon stiffness.

🔹 Straight-leg eccentric heel drops – 4×8
Loads the gastroc and strengthens the tendon under control.

🔹 Bent-leg eccentric heel drops – 4×8
Targets the soleus (non-negotiable for running & football).

🔹 Single-leg pogos (more load into bent leg, front foot on step)
Because strong tendons also need to be springy, not just strong.

⸻

Lesson learned:
Tendons don’t care what your job title is.
Load them properly — or they’ll force you to.💪🏾🤕

✨ Happy New Year! ✨

It’s hard to believe it’s been a year working alongside Benedicte since we partnered to create Tūī Osteopathy — time really does fly when you love what you do.

A huge thank you to everyone who makes coming to work something I genuinely look forward to every day 💙

I’ve started 2026 with a wet and windy family hike in Tongariro National Park — moving my body, out in nature, just how I love to begin a new year 🥾🌲🏞️

I’m looking forward to seeing your lovely faces when I’m back at work mid-Jan 💙

Reconnect with the earth and give your body a natural boost 🌿👣

Grounding (or earthing) is as simple as walking barefoot on grass, sand, or soil — yet it can have amazing benefits for your body and mind:
✨ Reduce inflammation & ease muscle/joint pain
✨ Support natural healing & recovery
✨ Improve circulation & posture
✨ Reduce stress & balance cortisol
✨ Sleep better and feel more calm

Try grounding for 10–15 minutes a day and notice how your body responds!

💛 Save this post to remind yourself to reconnect with the earth
