📣UPDATE - NEW CLINIC LOCATION CHANGE - MOVING TIME 📣

After a truly rewarding time working from Fusion Physio in Ahuriri, I will be transitioning my clinic practice to be based full-time at Kowhai Clinic! This move will take effect from 7th July 2025.

While I have absolutely loved my time at Fusion — being part of such a vibrant, collaborative team and working alongside talented MSK physiotherapists and rehab instructors — As many of you know, I have worked across both Fusion Physio and Kowhai Clinic for several years. This next step marks a new chapter for Hawke’s Bay Pelvic Physio, as I consolidate my work into one dedicated space at the Kowhai Clinic. Having a single, central location will allow me to offer greater continuity, and a more personalised experience for each of you.

New Contact Details:
You can now reach me directly on 021 025 54238 or via email at admin@hbpelvicphysio.co.nz.
If you already have appointments booked, I’ll be in touch to confirm the details – and of course, you are welcome to get in touch with any questions.

Thank you so much for your continued trust and support. It is a privilege to walk alongside you in your pelvic health journey, and I look forward to welcoming you to the new clinic space at the Kowhai Clinic.
Warmest wishes,
Bernadette

Lets pay tribute to the mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends who inspire us daily, lifting others with their courage and compassion.

✨March is Endometriosis Awareness Month ✨

03/03/2025

💫Hello March 2025 - A Month of renewal and growth!💫

In New Zealand, March symbolises a beautiful transition, inviting us to align with nature’s cycles and embrace holistic healing.
We celebrate the beginning of Autumn—a season of reflection, grounding, and gentle transformation. As the leaves change and nature prepares to rest, we are reminded to slow down, nurture ourselves, and find balance within. It’s the perfect time to release what no longer serves us and make space for renewal and growth.

Coming home to your pelvic space is a beautiful way to feel this transition!

🖤🤍 Remembering all affected by cyclone Gabrielle, the lives that were lost and those who still live with the effects today.
As we celebrate love on Valentine’s Day, lets also take a moment to reflect on a day that deeply impacted Hawke’s Bay—marking two years since Cyclone Gabrielle. Kia Kaha 🖤🤍

🎄 It's Christmas!! How has this crept around so fast this year??!! 🎄

I'm signing off ready to put my feet up after another wonderful and fulfilling year.
Thank you to you all my wonderful clients, for allowing me the privilege of supporting your health and well-being!

This holiday season, I wish you all the joy, peace, and wellness that comes with taking good care of yourself. May you embrace moments of rest and relaxation, while also celebrating the strength your body provides you each day.

As we step into the new year, may you continue to prioritize your pelvic health, move with confidence, and live without limits 😉

Enjoy the break with those you love and I’ll see you in the New Year!

Please sign this important petition to make ALL options of Estrogen patches available to NZ women 🙏

Mandate Government Funding for keeping ESTRADOT HRT Patches funded for Menopausal Women

28/11/2024

On first glance this article seems to bring exciting changes to access for women in NZ for Estrogen patches from next year...
However it defines logic that Women in NZ from next year will only have funding for one brand of patch...a far less favoured brand than the preferred Estradot!!
A petition has been started to overturn this ridiculous decision & I would urge you to please sign this to overturn yet another Pharmac decision undermining women & our bodies 🙄
Please see Link in comments
I will also repost femalegp insight & post on this topic too

Www.hawkesbaypelvicphysio.co.nz

The supply of estradiol patches in New Zealand is expected to improve next year when Pharmac switches to funding a new brand of the medicine in July.
