As an endurance athlete you will pick up the odd injury from time to time, this might be the result of falling off your bike or the result of incorrect technique or posture.  Physiotherapy plays a vital role to ensure that your problem gets diagnosed correctly and the correct rehabilitation and strengthening plan is put in place to get you back out training and racing to your potential.

“I am a sports medicine physiotherapist qualified in 1995, with post graduate qualifications in Sports medicine and acupuncture. I work at Injury Solutions with a great team of clinicians, and though treat all musculoskeletal problems, have specialised in biomechanical assessment and muscle screening. I am a preferred provider for the New Zealand Academy of Sport and have spent the last 8 years with Rowing New Zealand. Moving on from rowing has let me focus more on athletes from running, cycling and kayaking and I have recently have started working with kayaking disciplines at a national level.”

“My own sporting endeavours are a few races a year and some back country bike touring. It all has to fit round my family of two young kids and a job, so happy to sit in the middle of the pack and love being out there.”
