WINTER HYDRATION.

Hydration often drops off over winter without us even realising it.

When the weather cools down, we naturally feel less thirsty — but our bodies still need plenty of fluid to support energy, recovery, concentration and general health.

Average daily fluid recommendations sit around:
• 2.1L for women
• 2.6L for men
(and more again if you’re exercising, unwell, breastfeeding or constantly on the go).

Some common things that can contribute to dehydration over winter:
• More coffees and hot drinks
• Heating, fireplaces and dry indoor air
• Winter sport and exercise
• Illness and viruses
• Wearing extra layers and sweating more than you realise

Even being mildly dehydrated can affect:
• Energy levels
• Headaches and concentration
• Muscle recovery and performance
• Joint and soft tissue health

Dehydration can also impact sports performance, increase fatigue and reduce muscle function — all of which may contribute to a higher risk of injury during training and sport.

A few easy ways to stay on top of hydration this winter:
• Keep a drink bottle nearby during the day and refill as soon as it’s empty (plug - our 1200ml double insulated drink bottles are featured in the pic and are currently on sale for $39. Perfect for those hot or cold bevvies)
• Try alternating coffees with water or herbal tea
• Increase fluids around training, sport and illness

Your body will thank you for it.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mums and mother figures in our community 🤍

To the mums holding families together behind the scenes, cheering from the sidelines, juggling work, school lunches, sports gear, dinner prep, endless washing and somehow still showing up for everyone else — today is for you.

And a very special shout out to our Bespoke Māmā - Kendall, Siobhan, Steph, Chelsea, Beckie, Sue, Mel & our to be Māmā Anna! 💐

We see the early mornings after broken sleep, the daycare drop offs, the sick kids, the schedule juggling, the mental load and the constant balancing act that comes with motherhood. Yet somehow, you still walk through the doors each day ready to care for others with kindness, patience and a smile.

Behind every busy family, athlete, weekend warrior and community is usually a pretty incredible mum somewhere in the background.

Whether today feels joyful, chaotic, emotional or somewhere in between — we hope you manage to find a small moment for yourself today. A hot coffee, a quiet sit in the sun, a wine on the couch tonight… whatever fills your cup back up a little.

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at Bespoke Physiotherapy & Health 🤍

Your wellbeing is in safe hands 🤍

Our qualified massage therapists keep their first aid training up to date every 2 years—an important requirement for maintaining professional standards and ensuring treatments meet the criteria needed for Southern Cross Health Insurance claims.

Did you know? 🤔 Southern Cross Health Insurance can cover up to $500 per year for massage therapy treatments?

That means you can relax knowing you’re cared for safely AND your remedial massage may be eligible for cover.

Book your next massage online or give us a call today—we’d love to help you feel your best.

INTRODUCING JUNIOR PHYSIOTHERAPIST - MIKAYLA SWAN.

Mikayla had added depth to our Bespoke Tribe since starting with us in March. She is the lead physio for the Te Puna prems this season, runs our Monday evening strength and conditioning class and has opened up her diary to take on new Bespoke clients.

Read on below for Mikayla’s full bio or jump online to book in!

“Born and raised in Christchurch, I completed my Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours) at the University of Otago, where my thesis explored the experiences of returning to sport following long COVID.

My passion for movement began with 15 years of ballet training, which first sparked my fascination with the human body and how it performs. Over the years, I’ve also enjoyed participating in a range of sports, further shaping my understanding of movement, performance, and recovery.

For the past four years, I’ve been actively involved in being a medic across a variety of sporting events — from endurance races to football, touch, and rugby union. I’ve also had the privilege of working with representative rugby teams in Otago, Canterbury, and the Bay of Plenty. This season I have the privilege of working with Te Puna rugby club, providing services to the mens premiere team.

As a physiotherapist, I’m passionate about helping people get back to doing what they love, whether that’s sport, work, or everyday life. I take a holistic approach that combines my knowledge of movement with evidence-based physiotherapy and lifestyle principles to support each client’s unique journey toward optimal health and performance.”

MASSAGE THERAPY

Did you know we now have three remedial massage therapists at Bespoke, with over 30 years of combined knowledge and experience?

Chelsea and Siobhan are our Senior Massage Therapists and bring a wealth of clinical experience to the team. We’ve also recently welcomed Claire, our Junior Massage Therapist, who is currently completing her Level 6 qualification and continuing to develop her skills under the mentorship of our senior therapists.

Here are 3 signs you should add regular massage to your body maintenance plan 👇🏽

1. You’re feeling constantly tight, stiff, or restricted
2. You’re training hard and not recovering as well as you’d like
3. You’re dealing with ongoing aches, tension, or stress-related discomfort

Regular massage can help support recovery, improve mobility, reduce muscle tension, and keep you moving well.

Book online or get in touch with our team to find the right massage option for you.

Hey! I’m Claire, originally from a sheep and beef farm an hour south of Dunedin, where I grew up with a love for the outdoors and an active lifestyle. I recently changed careers to follow my true passion, completing my Level 5 Diploma in Wellness and Relaxation Massage at Toi Ohomai. Now, I’m thrilled to be working as a massage therapist, helping people get back to being active and feeling their best. I am also currently completing my Level 6 Diploma to become a Remedial Massage Therapist.

My approach to massage therapy is all about empowering you to move better and live actively. The styles of massage I am most passionate about are sports and therapeutic massage, with a key focus on easing muscle tension, reducing pain and improving range of motion to support your body’s ability to recover, so you can return to the activities you love for the long haul.

In my spare time, I have always been an avid sports fan, with a particular love for football and hockey, though I’ve given most sports a go over the years! Whether I’m on the field or exploring new ways to stay active, I’m all about embracing movement.

I look forward to meeting you at the clinic and working together to get you back to doing what you love!

MEET THE TRIBE — KENDALL STEVENSON

Introducing our Director and Masters-qualified Physiotherapist, Kendall Stevenson — the driving force behind Bespoke Physiotherapy & Health.

Kendall founded Bespoke in 2018 with a clear vision: to create a space that delivers high-quality, individualised care while bridging the gap between injury rehab, performance, and long-term health.

With over 15 years of clinical experience, Kendall has worked across both private practice and high-performance sport, supporting athletes at the highest level including the Black Ferns Sevens, All Blacks Sevens, and the Black Ferns Surf Lifesaving team.

She completed her Masters in Physiotherapy in 2015 and has a strong interest in combining hands-on treatment with structured, gym-based rehab — helping clients not just recover from injury, but come back stronger, more resilient, and confident in their bodies.

Kendall is passionate about raising the standard of physio care and removing barriers to access, which continues to shape the Bespoke model today — from our integrated rehab approach, supporting grass root clubs and athletes, to our movement studio and performance-focused environment.

As Director, she leads with a focus on great clinical care, a strong team culture, and creating a space where both clients and clinicians can thrive. The past year has come with its fair share of challenges, but it’s reinforced Kendall’s belief in keeping things simple, backing your people, and continuing to move forward — even when things aren’t perfect.

Outside of the clinic, Kendall is a mum to three busy boys (5, 4 and 1), so she knows all too well the juggle of life, work, and trying to look after your body. She’s a big believer that things don’t always have to be perfect — but they do need to get done — and brings that same practical, realistic approach into how she helps her clients.

If you’ve been putting off sorting an injury or want to take your rehab to the next level — Kendall and the team have you covered.

Tag a pal that needs a bit more ankle stability in their life!

Ft. Seated banded ankle eversion for peroneal strengthening.

A simple but effective exercise targeting the peroneal muscles (peroneus longus + brevis) — the key stabilisers on the outside of your ankle. These muscles help control ankle position, resist rolling outwards, and play a big role in balance, running and cutting movements.

Strong, reactive peroneals = better ankle stability and reduced risk of lateral ankle sprains.

Great for:
• Lateral ankle sprains
• Improving balance + control
• Return to running and change of direction sport

Focus on slow, controlled movement, keeping the rest of the leg relaxed — the work should come from the ankle.

Consistency > intensity with this one

Target rep range 3 sets 10-15 reps.

If your ankles need a bit of TLC - be sure to book in with one of our Bespoke team members to get you back on track!
