In honor of local sporting legend and Rocky Point Trail Run supporter, Tommy “SOS” Aldridge, we are honored and privileged to be sponsoring a new prize this year.

Join us this Labour Weekend, Sunday October 27th, for a taste of Buller. Whether here to explore the coastal views or native bush, Rocky Point Trail Run has it all with distances to suit everyone!

We're excited to announce that Coast Physio are sponsoring a new prize this year, in honour of the late Tommy "Sos" Aldridge.

Tommy was the oldest competitor in both our 2022 and 2023 events - walking the 12.5km event from Tauranga Bay to Carters Beach.

A local sporting legend, Tommy will be sorely missed at this year's event but, thanks to Coast Physio, he will always be fondly remembered.

It is with great excitement that we welcome Raquel Casey to our Coast Physio team! She is accepting new clients; call 021-712-067 to book an appointment.

A brief introduction from our very own West Coaster:

“Kia Ora! I'm Raquel, and I proudly identify as a Coaster, having grown up on the stunning West Coast. My journey began in the town of Granity before moving to Westport, where I completed my education at Buller High.

I hold the title of a junior physiotherapist, equipped with a degree in physiotherapy and sports and recreation from Auckland University of Technology. My heart belongs to sports, and I'm an enthusiast in boxing, swimming (both in pools and the open ocean), badminton, and touch rugby. During my extensive eight-year academic journey, I've had the privilege of working with a range of sports teams. These include the likes of Nelson Giants basketball, Tasman Mako Rugby, Nelson Wanderers, Auckland Silverdale Prems and Reserves Rugby, AFL Tigers, Manu Samoa Rugby, Buller Rugby, Buller Hockey, and many more.

I've also earned certification in vestibular rehab, where I aid patients in dealing with vertigo. But it's the realm of concussion management that truly captivates me as a physiotherapist.

I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to connect with you in the future, as I'm committed to pursuing goals that revolve around the well-being and needs of our patients."
