Back In Action

Our Women’s Health team is proud to support The Big Latch On 2026!

While breastfeeding is a natural process, it is also a physically demanding one. Many mothers experience "Nursing Neck" (cervicogenic pain), thoracic stiffness, or wrist strain (De Quervain's tenosynovitis) due to repetitive positioning and the hormonal changes that affect ligament laxity postpartum.

At Back In Action, we believe that a successful breastfeeding journey is supported by physical comfort and postural health.

How our team support breastfeeding parents:

Postural Assessment: Identifying setups that reduce strain on the neck and shoulders.

MSK Management: Treating back, rib, and pelvic girdle pain associated with long periods of sitting or carrying.

Core & Pelvic Floor Recovery: Ensuring your foundation is strong as you navigate the early stages of motherhood.

Event Details:
📅 When: Friday 27th March | 10am – 12pm
📍 Where: Tū Ora Compass Health, Level 2, 35-37 Chapel Street, Masterton

We encourage all local mums to head along for community support and connection. If physical discomfort is impacting your feeding journey, our specialized clinicians are here to help.

Winter sport is coming. Is your teen actually ready? 🏔️💨

Transitioning from the summer sport to the high-impact demands of rugby, netball, and football is the highest-risk time for teen athletes. That "tiny" ache from last year? It’s waiting for a high-intensity moment to become a real problem.

At Back In Action, we specialise in:
✅ Assessing biomechanics & "niggles."
✅ Pre-season strengthening.
✅ Keeping NZ teens on the field (and off the treatment table).

Don’t wait for the pop or the tear. Get assessed today and start the season at 100%.

Between calving, fencing, and maintenance, your body is your most important piece of machinery on the farm.

We don't just 'fix' injuries; we optimize how you move. From drafting-related shoulder issues to tractor-seat back pain, our team identifies the cause of your discomfort.

We’ll get to the bottom of the pain and help you build the strength to handle whatever the next season throws at you.

Physio appointments available daily.

The world can be loud, fast, and demanding—but for the next 60 minutes, it doesn't exist. Step into a space where the only 'to-do' on your list is to breathe.

A relaxation massage is designed to quiet the mental chatter and unbind the tension you've been carrying. Leave the stress at the door and let Catherine help you find the stillness you’ve been searching for.

Did you know:
- Shearers typically maintain a heart rate of 140 to 150 beats per minute for roughly 8 hours a day, which is comparable to an endurance athlete.

- A shearer can burn between 5,000 and 5,500 calories per day, similar to an Australian Football League (AFL) player on game day!

- A shearer handling 150–200 sheep a day, with each sheep weighing roughly 60–70 kg, moves approximately 9 to 14 tonnes of sheep daily.

These guys and gals know how to work hard!
