Mr Ben Timmings
Physiotherapist
Ben graduated from Otago University with a Bachelors of Science majoring in Sport and Exercise science and went on to complete his Bachelors of Physiotherapy with his final year here in Otautahi Christchurch as he moved away from his hometown. Born and raised in Dunedin, Ben in typical Kiwi fashion is an avid sports player and keeps active outdoors on hikes, getting out in the sun whenever possible and getting stuck into the gym. More recently, Ben picked up a love for Olympic Weightlifting and honed his training skills during his Bachelor of Science where he worked alongside National athletes while also teaching newer lifters at his local weightlifting gym. Over the course of his two degrees, Ben worked alongside various people from elite athletes undertaking sport testing, those recovering from injuries, to some aiming to maintain strength and independence into later life. This experience along with being active himself allows him to better understand both the physical and mental demands of an active lifestyle and how much this can differ from person to person. He appreciates how important it is that exercise and rehabilitation is catered to the person and strives to give tailored, personalised care. View details »
