I’m a self-motivated, enthusiastic, and competent manual therapist and osteopath with a can-do positive attitude. I’m accomplished in structural, visceral, and cranial osteopathy, with a continual passion for helping individuals of all ages find health—whether supporting pregnant women, treating children, or restoring movement and balance in adults.
My professional journey has taken me across the North Island of New Zealand and, more recently, to the Middle East, where I spent four years working in an internationally acclaimed sports medicine clinic. There, I collaborated with physiotherapists, sports physicians, and other allied health professionals in a multidisciplinary setting, managing a broad spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions and athletic injuries.
I bring a strong background in sports care.
I thrive in collaborative environments and believe the best outcomes are achieved through integrated, patient-centered care—working alongside other health professionals to deliver the highest standard of treatment. Now back in New Zealand, I’m excited to bring my international experience and multidisciplinary approach to support the health and wellbeing of the local community. View details »

Then continued to develop my acupuncture treatment working in NZ since 2017. I enjoy meeting people and learning new things. I believe everybody has a different body structure, ideas and what they need to find a way of working out for them. Japanese style of acupuncture which is gentle, brief needling to stimulate muscles, nerves and points on the body to relieve pain, reduce inflammation and promote healing. I am also skilled at cupping, guasha and moxibustion, all forms of treatment to help balance the body. Outside of acupuncture room I am busy wandering in the wilderness and mountains of Aotearoa. I enjoy tramping, skiing, biking or sometimes just chill in a quiet place or relax in a mountain hut. View details »
