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.

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 graduated as a physiotherapist from Otago University in 2016 and in addition have a post-graduate certificate in sport and exercise. I’m a big believer in both mental and physical exercise as it not only aligns with the evidence but because it puts you in control of your recovery.
When I’m not working as a physiotherapist you can find me on the sidelines of the football field where I serve as manager (and occasional player) for a semi-social team in Waikanae. Football aside, my main passion is reading anything and everything and spending time with my wife Claudia, and fur baby Labrador Zizou.
