I have been part of Ponsonby Physio for some time now, starting here when I was still competing in cycling and now as a business owner. It has been a joy to see how the clinic has evolved over this time and continues to provide quality physio care to our wonderful community.
Taking a holistic overview to health and wellbeing underpins Toni’s approach to helping her patients.
Toni studied at Otago University and has completed post-graduate studies in acupuncture and sports medicine.
Toni continues to have an interest in cycling and running. She has undergone training in Physio bike set-ups and offers this service at the clinic. Toni also has a passion for movement and exercise teaching classes at the clinic both in Reformer Pilates and Cancer rehab (PINC cancer Physio trained).
As with most physios, Toni is curious about what’s happening in physiotherapy and has developed special interest in hips, women’s health and tendons and aging well. She uses a combination of a hands-on approach to treatment using acupuncture, manual therapy, tissue work while also incorporating exercise therapy to help return patient to their activities. “Exercise is medicine” is something that really resonates with me.
What’s the best thing about being a Physio?
“Helping and empowering people to get through their injuries or pain problems, being able to encourage them to be as active as they can and helping them reach their goals, however big or small they are.”
