Mr Luke Reumers
Osteopath
Luke completed his Master's in Osteopathy after discovering the effectiveness of osteopathic treatment during his own competitive sporting career. He enjoys working with patients of all ages (5 years and older) and uses a comprehensive range of techniques including joint mobilisation/articulation, joint manipulations, soft tissue manipulation and release, fascial release, and craniosacral therapy. Luke understands the importance of movement, mobility, and strength for pain management and longevity, often prescribing exercises alongside nutrition, supplement, sleep, and stress management advice as part of osteopathy's whole-body approach. Luke's passion for osteopathy was inspired by his interest in health and wellbeing, combined with experiencing firsthand how much osteopathic treatment can improve someone's quality of life. He loves being able to find the root cause of someone's pain, help with management strategies, and get people back to pain-free living as quickly as possible. He also enjoys regularly meeting people from all different walks of life. Having participated competitively in multiple sports growing up, Luke believes that regular movement, sport, and play are essential parts of a healthy lifestyle. His treatment plans focus on creating unique management strategies for each patient, considering physical factors, individual lifestyles, interests, beliefs, and general wellbeing to improve quality, frequency, and duration of daily movement without pain and injury. Originally from New Plymouth but preferring the South Island, Luke is an avid trail runner currently training to race a 100km ultra next year. When he's not out running in the hills, you can find him hiking, at the gym, bouldering, playing chess, or reading. His diverse sporting background and ongoing athletic pursuits give him unique insight into the physical demands his patients face. View details »
