Core Clinic is a physiotherapy, podiatry and acupuncture practice at 287 Oteha Valley Road in Albany, on the North Shore, with podiatry clinics in Silverdale and Warkworth. The Albany clinic offers all three services under one roof, so patients do not need referrals to several places. The practice is an ACC-accredited provider and offers both ACC referrals and private care.
Podiatry covers sports injuries, ingrown toenails, orthotics for flat feet, and diabetic foot care. Physiotherapy in Albany includes individual rehabilitation plans, trigger point dry needling, shockwave therapy and exercise advice. Acupuncture is offered for fertility, back pain and prenatal care, and it draws on traditional Chinese medicine. The website says the team speaks several languages and works as a team. Reception is open Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 5pm, and appointments can be booked online. Silverdale's clinic is on Painton Road, and Warkworth's is at Queen Street, inside Active Plus Physio.
