About Mapua Motueka Physio

Two physiotherapists work from the Mapua Motueka Physio base at 25 Greenwood Street in Motueka, serving Mapua and Motueka. Sharon has worked across the Tasman Region for 13 years, in clinics and in the community: in gyms, pools, workplaces and clients' homes. Her first focus was back and neck problems, and she trained in the McKenzie Method. The website says she refers clients for x-rays, ultrasound, hospital and specialist care, and ACC programmes when needed, and that she likes to send people home with exercises and advice they can keep using.

Leah graduated from Otago University with distinction in 2024. She works with musculoskeletal conditions and acute sports injuries, and has been a rugby sports medic for teams in Dunedin and Nelson, including the Tasman Mako U18 Wahine in 2024. Her interests include hypermobility and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, and soft tissue mobilisation. The website describes the care as friendly and patient-centred, with plans built for each person.
