North Shore Physiotherapy works from inside Anytime Fitness Takapuna, at 138 Hurstmere Road, so rehabilitation can move from the treatment room to a fully equipped gym in the same place. The clinic treats knee, hip, ankle, foot and shoulder problems, tendon pain, sports injuries and recovery after surgery, including osteoarthritis. Its lead physiotherapist, Chris, has 19 years of experience across the UK NHS and private practice, and holds a Masters in Advanced Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. The clinic is an ACC registered provider and is Southern Cross affiliated. It lodges ACC claims for patients, so no GP referral is needed to start. It also takes private patients and works with other insurers. Appointments run in the mornings, evenings and on Saturdays. The clinic offers a free 10-minute phone call with Chris for people who want to know whether physiotherapy suits them before booking.
