Physiotherapy · Ponsonby
Physiotherapy in Ponsonby that treats the cause, not just the symptom
Hands-on physiotherapy in Ponsonby for injuries, everyday aches and recovery after surgery. Longer appointments mean we can find why it is happening and give you a plan that holds, not a quick fix that fades. Whether your visit is ACC-covered or paid privately, you get the same time and the same plan. No referral needed to start.

Time to treat the cause
A short appointment is enough to ease today's pain, but not to work out why the problem keeps returning. Our appointments run 30 to 40 minutes, longer than a standard slot, so we can assess properly, treat the cause with hands-on work, and give you the home exercises that make the result stick.
ACC, insurance, or pay privately
If your problem is an accident or injury, ACC may cover it and we lodge the claim for you. If you have health insurance, we work with most providers, including Southern Cross. And if neither applies, you can simply pay as you go: no referral, no membership. Either way the appointment is the same length and the plan is built around your goals.
What it costs
Private physiotherapy is $89 for a 30-minute appointment or $129 for 40 minutes with one of our physiotherapists, with senior and lead clinicians a little more. Longer 60-minute appointments are available on request.
What we treat
How we help
Back and neck pain
From the desk-bound stiffness that builds over months to acute pain that stops you in your tracks.
Sports and training injuries
Sprains, strains and overuse, with a plan to get you back to your sport stronger than before, not just patched up.
Post-surgical rehab
After a knee, hip, shoulder or spinal operation: a staged plan to rebuild strength and movement at the pace your surgeon and body allow.
Posture and desk-related pain
The headaches, tight shoulders and sore back that come from long hours at a screen, sorted at the source.
Chronic and recurring pain
The niggle that keeps coming back. We look for why it keeps returning, not just where it hurts today.
Joint and muscle pain
Knees, hips, shoulders and more: pain that limits your movement, your training and your sleep.
