My name is Lizzie & I have been working as a physiotherapist since 2013, & have been with KCP Physiotherapy for that whole period. I have a Masters in Sports Physiotherapy & have a special interest in sports injuries, in particular rugby injuries because I have played rugby myself & have also worked with rugby teams extensively for the last six years.
I believe everyone should be able to be active & enjoy it, in whatever way they choose! - so my aim is always to help restore patients to be able to get back to what they want to do without pain or limitation. The body does a pretty good job of healing itself so I'm just here to help aid that recovery & get it progressing a little faster!
In my spare time I like to play social sports, go to the gym, garden (only fruit & vege all about what I can grow to eat haha), cook, read & travel. I'm a friendly person & I'm pretty good at making people feel comfortable so that they can get the most out of their appointments. View details »
I was born in England and raised in Christchurch where I developed a keen interest in everything sports-related, sparking my interest in Physiotherapy. I am a keen runner and enjoy training for various long-distance events, as well as going to the gym in my spare time.
I graduated with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy from the University of Otago and continue to upskill myself through courses and by considering the latest research. My treatment philosophy is a combination of hands-on and exercise-based approaches. I believe in providing you with the tools to be able to self-manage as much as possible, streamlining your recovery and allowing you to return to what is most meaningful to you. View details »
I have been a private practice physiotherapist for 12 years.
I have a special interest in the manual therapy side of physio but also enjoy prescribing patients with exercises that will help them at home. I have a special interest in golf, swimming and running related injuries.
My general philosophy for Physiotherapy is that I am not healing you but I can help facilitate the natural healing process. I use a lot of hands on treatment to provide relief but also give advice on how to make things as efficient as possible.
