Mrs Nina Strieker
Physiotherapist
After more than 25 years working as a physiotherapist, I am proud to say that I am still passionate about my job! I advocate for finding balance in life and promote getting the basics right for healing and wellbeing; sleep, nutrition, hydration, breathing, exercise and reducing stress. I am passionate about improving quality of life for clients, aiming to get them back to pre-injury function or even better than before. I have experience working in NZ and the UK, in sports physiotherapy, paediatrics, adolescent health and general musculoskeletal treatment and rehabilitation. I am a qualified Bradcliff breathing practitioner and knowledgeable in long covid recovery. I have a diploma in sports medicine, dry needling proficiency certificate and first aid trained. I live locally with my husband and our 2 teenagers. I am at my happiest in nature, hiking, running and wild swimming. I love travelling to new places with my trusty back pack on. Quiz night with our neighbours is a highlight of my week. I worked for Body Wise from 2015-2020 and returned again with the shift to Burwood Health in 2023. View details »
Mr Alister George
Physiotherapist
It has been incredibly rewarding to have been a front-line clinical physiotherapist for over three decades, including 16 years as a clinical educator. My practice is person-centred, and research informed. I have extensive experience in solving complex clinical problems with a combination of manual therapy, acupuncture, exercise therapy, workplace assessments and cognitive behavioural approaches. I have special interest in musician’s injuries, pain, and ergonomics. The joy of clinical physiotherapy is seeing people thrive. Outside physiotherapy I am a part-time professional musician and music producer. I have three grown children, three small dogs, and an unhealthy weakness for chocolate biscuits. View details »
