🚀 New Service at Sports Physio Lab! 🚀

We’re excited to announce that Chiropractic care has officially landed at SPL — and leading the way is our newest team member, Hooper 🙌
Hooper brings serious credentials: a Doctor of Chiropractic, a degree in Physiology, and her International Certificate in Sports Chiropractic (ICSC).

She’s worked with elite teams like the All Blacks, the Professional Pickleball Association, and NZ’s national women’s ice hockey team, the Ice Fernz 🏒.
But what makes her stand out is the way she connects with people. Having been through her own ACL rehab journey, she knows exactly what it takes to push through setbacks and come back stronger. 💪

From elite athletes to weekend warriors, busy parents, kids, and mums-to-be — Hooper is here to deliver world-class chiropractic care right here in Frankton. 🏔️
This is a game-changer for our community. Welcome to SPL, Hooper! 🙏✨

Bookings available online for both Frankton & .

Not everything in performance and recovery needs to be crystal clear in the moment.

What matters most is momentum. Moving forward, staying consistent, and trusting the process. At Sports Physio Lab, that’s what we stand for: creating an environment where rehab, performance, and wellbeing all move together.
Because growth isn’t always linear, but it’s always moving. 🚀

🚀 Why we use the AlphaFit Force Plate Frame at SportsPhysioLab 🚀

Whether you’re an athlete chasing peak performance 🏋️‍♂️, or someone recovering from injury 💪, accurate testing is key to understanding how your body moves.

Our Force Plate Frame allows us to measure strength, balance, jump power, and movement efficiency—without restrictions or trip hazards. The result? Precise, reliable data that helps us create smarter rehab and training plans tailored to YOU.

From injury recovery ➡️ performance enhancement, this frame ensures we’re not guessing—we’re measuring. 📊✨

🚀 Kicking off with VALD in Queenstown! ⚡️

We were privileged to host our very first workshop at the brand-new SPL Frankton clinic, led by Sean McCleary (Sports Scientist & VALD Lead for NZ) and (Physiotherapist & VALD NZ BDM).

The session focused on ACL assessment, rehab, and performance, bringing together our team of physiotherapists and strength & conditioning coaches for hands-on learning with world-class technology.

Excited to continue building knowledge and capability to help our athletes and community stay strong, recover smarter, and perform at their best. 💪

💥Meet our new team member Aoife 💥

Originally from Ireland Aoife is an experienced senior physiotherapist who has made Queenstown her home for the last 7 years. She loves the variety of the incredibly active community here and the value they place on physiotherapy. Her practice revolves strongly around manual therapy including dry-needling and massage to calm injured tissues but ultimately her goal is to get you into the gym to bridge the gap from injury to performance and getting you back to doing what you love.

Alongside gym-based training she has over 4 years of experience as a pilates instructor so can confidently tailor a rehab program that is right for you. She appreciates clients who are curious and motivated who want to take their rehab to the next level. Over the past 2 years she has also completed further education in the area of pelvic health after a 6-month stint working in a maternity hospital in Dublin. She loves being able to combine her knowledge of the pelvic floor and her musculoskeletal background to provide a full systems approach particularly to her female population.

Over the years she has worked with various sports teams including soccer and rugby. She loves training herself and takes part in both Gaelic football and muay thai at competitive levels as well as being a keen trail runner and mountain-biker.

Aoife will be based out of both & SPL Frankton. Online bookings available from tonight for next week 💪

💥💥Meet our new strength coach Nikki Atkinson💥💥

Strength & Performance Coach | Pre & Postnatal Specialist | Powerlifter

Nikki’s passion for combining smart, structured training with performance and injury prevention began during her BSc in Sport & Exercise Science, completed in the UK in 2013. Her early interest in human movement deepened over five years working as a Snowboard Instructor in Canada, where she fell in love with mountain sports especially snowboarding and mountain biking.
After qualifying as a Personal Trainer in 2019, Nikki has since worked with a diverse range of clients ,from mountain sport athletes to everyday movers helping them train with purpose and return to the activities they love with more strength, confidence, and clarity. She holds additional certifications as a Pre & Postnatal Coach and Women’s Coaching Specialist, with a keen interest in supporting women through all stages of life and training.
Now a competitive powerlifter, Nikki lives and breathes strength training. Her coaching blends evidence based methods with real-world experience across action sports, rehab, and performance. Whether in the gym or on the trails, she’s passionate about helping people train smarter, reduce injury risk, and build resilience for life and sport.
When she’s not lifting heavy, you’ll likely find her on two wheels or hiking her snowboard into the backcountry — chasing adrenaline and alpine views.

Online Bookings are available for next week at SPL Frankton.
