Personalised Treatments

All treatments are personalised to your injury, personal preferences, body type and goals.

For All Ages and Body Types

Treatments take into respect you as an individual and can be as firm or light as required.

For All Musculosketal Conditions

As well as spinal conditions I also treat a wide variety of musculosketal injuries.

Finding the Cause

I am passionate about finding the source of injury or discomfort and developing a treatment plan to address it.

You aren’t yourself when you are injured. Get back to being you.

What are your prices?

Keep scrolling below!

Are you ACC registered?

Yes, If your injury is the result of an accident, I can lodge your ACC claim. If it is accepted ACC will pay for a proportion of your treatment fees and you will qualify for ACC pricing and travel reimbursement.

What’s the difference between Osteopaths, Physio, Chiro or a Massage Therapist?

A physio will use exercises, a chiro will use joint cracking, a massage therapist will use massage techniques. Osteopaths do it all! I have done extra training to use all of these treatment modalities as needed.

Is it ok if I’m already seeing a different practitioner?

I am able to co treat with other practioners (eg. massage, physio, other osteopaths) but please book with a day or two gap between appointments.

Will you be running on time?

I particularly pride myself on running on time so your appointment will rarely begin more than a few minutes off from its schedulled time.

What happens in an initial appointment?

The first 5-10 minutes will be going through your history.
The second 5-10 minutes I will go through an examination of your body looking at how you are moving and feeling to develop a diagnosis.
The bulk of the appointment, around 30min, will consist of treatment and rehabilitation as needed.
The final 5 minutes will be administration such as booking follow up appointments and typing notes.

How long are appointments?

Initial appointments are 45min long. Return appointments are 30min as standard, or 45min for complicated or multiple conditions.

What should I wear?

I can usually treat with whatever you are comfortable in, but workout gear or equilivent is preferred.

Do I need to see my GP first?

No referral is necessary.

Will you ‘crack’ my joints?

Only if it is a technique you want performed, I think it would be beneficial in your case and there are no risk factors present.

Do you treat infants and children?

Yes, I treat right from the first few weeks of life, infant treatment is very light. If you are comfortable bringing bubs in, I’m comfortable treating them. With two of my own children nothing will suprise me!
